Why the hell do they keep interviewing KO'd fighters

Nothing good ever comes out of it.

Yeah never.

It should never, ever happen. Don't matter if its boxing or MMA or what. Dudes have no idea what the fuck is going on post KO

 

[serenewarfare]

Vince McMahon literally

S E E T H I N G

Don't they know wrestlemania season is coming up?

Nah. Brock can't fight unless Vince says so. At least not until his contract expires in April.

 

[ChanDangle]

I'm still trying to figure out why everyone hates DC so much.

 

[Rawr Its Ry]

 

[jabuseika]

Throw one more pleb at Jones, like Gustafsson.

Then Brock Jones at Wrestlemania next year.

 

[parrotbeak]

Doesn't Lesnar cut about 20 lbs to make 265? So difference is more like 60 lbs. That would be the biggest UFC fight of all time.

I wonder what JBJ cuts from and what he'll look like at hw.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

I have zero reason to believe Brock can get himself in fight shape at 40 and still pass a drug test.

 

[StoopKid]

The amount of blow jones is doing tonight has to be insane.

 

[Anth0ny]

Question: Would the WWE Universal Title be up for grabs as well if Lesnar accepts Jones' challenge?

Glad Rogan voiced his disapproval of that tradition. Dude just got concussed, how can you possibly think they're good candidates for an interview.

Like when Ronda rekt Zingano, all she could answer to the questions was "FUCK!".

 

[alr1ght]

Uncle Dana wants all of the carny ass fights after seeing the cash Connor/Mayweather is going to bring in.

 

[FUME5]

Man, the fuck you interviewing DC there and then for. Cunts.

 

[serenewarfare]

I have zero reason to believe Brock can get himself in fight shape at 40 and still pass a drug test.

As long as his failure doesn't get out until after the fight, UFC couldn't care less.

 

[PR_rambo]

Jones is like Mcgregor except with 3x the better resume, the best reason to watch MMA

 

[Bits N Pieces]

Joe calling himself out, lol.

 

[RK9039]

damn

 

[Syntsui]

Wow, this Cornier dude is fat af.

 

[cdyhybrid]

That's a really tough loss for DC. Jones is just better though.

 

[Bronx-Man]

If Brock leaves, the last draws Vince has left for WrestleMania are Triple H and fuckin Shane McMahon lmao

 

[Obliterator]

Well I picked some stuff wrong but I'm happy with how I looked at Jon vs DC

Daniel Cormier vs Jon Jones for the LHW Title

Arguably one of, if not THE most important LHW fights in UFC History. A battle of the GOAT of the division vs the man who easily could take that very place if he manages to beat him. The first fight, while a clear victory for Jones, was actually one of the more competitive fights Jon has ever had. DC showed some areas where he did excel in such as close range dirty boxing in the early rounds. But at the end of the day Jon's supremacy as an athlete and skillset gave him a solid win. There are arguments that can be made in DC's favor. He's been far more active with Jon having fought only 1 time in the last 1 and half years. He also one would think gained confidence in his time as champion in Jon's absence. Still Jon is the younger, and if he is on his peak form one would think more skilled fighter. I suspect early on DC may be able to push a hard pace and make things exciting / interesting, but at the end of the night I suspect Jon has an even more dominant performance than the first. Possibly even a finish. Would love to be wrong on this one.

Pick: Jon Jones

Went pretty much exactly how I thought it would

 

[RBelong2Us]

I honestly don't know how people are saying "GOAT" after that performance though. Didn't look bad but it was such a physical mismatch and he was getting consistently tagged without finding any sense of timing. It's a far cry from the dominance we've seen from Anderson, GSP, or even DJ.

Dude...STFU lol

What are you even talking about ? He just finished the guy you clown. This guy has 2 losses ...both to this guy

Go away

 

[Chamber]

whole match looked like sagat vs ken

 

[NJSlay]

I'm still trying to figure out why everyone hates DC so much.

He gives off that righteous boy scout vibe. Like the kind of guy that would rat you out to the principal for that dimebag in your knapsack.

 

[Doug Heffernan]

Jones about to take over the heavyweight division now.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

I'm still trying to figure out why everyone hates DC so much.

For all his moral posturing during the Bones rivalry, the dude talked a gang of shit. Sometimes it's funny to see a guy who talks shit get his comeuppance. If Bones had been on the receiving end of that kick people would never let him hear the end of it.

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

Wow, this Cornier dude is fat af.

He moves better than you.

 

[Oscar]

The amount of blow jones is doing tonight has to be insane.

He's been open about it. During some media day interviews, he let it be known that he was going to party his brains out in Mexico after the win.

Dude has earned it. He's the champ, as long as he isn't drunk driving he can snort all the coke he wants.

 

[Rumblebones]

I feel bad for DC, but the man is indestructible. He will bounce back from this. He did very well for himself in life, so good for him.

For his sake, I hope Jones doesn't ruin this second chance.

 

[Levito]

Ah man I'm a pretty big DC fan, hard to watch him lose to Jon again.

 

[TastyBread]

Joe is going to wake up tomorrow and realise how he really shouldn't have done that loser interview. He was already mentioning it just now. Especially after the JRE Jamie foxx meme talk haha, poor cormier

 

[rugioh]

If Brock leaves, the last draws Vince has left for WrestleMania are Triple H and fuckin Shane McMahon lmao

How dare you slander the BIG DOG like that? It's HIS yard.

 

[parrotbeak]

It shouldn't have happened. Joe actually asked management to stop having him interview fighters that'd just been KO'ed after Overeem got knocked out and claimed something happened in the fight that didn't. I wonder if the new management has something to do with this?

Ya, I wonder if he did it knowing he shouldn't or cuz he was told to. Like, hey this is terrible but i'm doing it anyway, sorry!

 

[GravityInsanity]

Twitter too quick lol

 

[darkwing-buck]

Twitter too quick lol

LMAO

 

[SRTtoZ]

THE FUCKING GOAT RETURNS

 

[DMczaf]

The amount of blow jones is doing tonight has to be insane.

Do you understand the meaning of the word foreboding?

 

[Ninja Scooter]

Ya, I wonder if he did it knowing he shouldn't or cuz he was told to. Like, hey this is terrible but i'm doing it anyway, sorry!

He prefaced it by saying "i normally don't like doing interviews with guys who have just been knocked out..."

Joe can say all he wants about his preferences, but this is a huge fight, he will interview whoever his bosses tell him to interview.

 

[shockthrill]

do you guys think Jones could beat Stipe?

 

[Hex]

No?
Yes?
Maybe?
All up to Vince

Vince has nothing to do with it.
There has been talk of Brock finishing up after SS and walking for a while now

 

[webkatt]

Holy nuggets! Feel bad for DC. He is so crushed by the loss.

 

[serenewarfare]

For those who don't know, the earliest Brock can fight is late December due to his suspension.

 

[KefkaPalazzo]

Doesn't Lesnar cut about 20 lbs to make 265? So difference is more like 60 lbs. That would be the biggest UFC fight of all time.

Zero chance it outsells Conor's biggest ones. Will be massive though.

 

[Oscar]

Jones is like Mcgregor except with 3x the better resume, the best reason to watch MMA

Jones actually defended his title multiple times. McGregor will never defend his.

 

[Instro]

Maybe Rumble can come back now. Might as well get that fight done.

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

THE FUCKING GOAT RETURNS

 

[NJSlay]

do you guys think Jones could beat Stipe?

Stipe has that lethal elk blood/immigrant mentality combination. Might be too much for Bones.

 

[Nameless]

Christ, Bones

 

[serenewarfare]

Vince has nothing to do with it.
There has been talk of Brock finishing up after SS and walking for a while now

lol he's not gonna walk. There's been no talk of that.

 

[darkwing-buck]

Bones!

 

[parrotbeak]

do you guys think Jones could beat Stipe?

Ya easily
