Title: Jon Jones removed from UFC 200 for possible doping violation
Post by: K-1 on July 06, 2016, 09:42:30 PM
This kid will never learn.


LAS VEGAS -- Interim UFC light heavyweight champion Jon Jones has been pulled from his title unification bout against Daniel Cormier at UFC 200 on Saturday, after the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency informed Jones of a potential doping violation on Wednesday.

UFC president Dana White announced the move during an impromptu news conference at MGM Grand Hotel.

Jones tested positive for a banned substance in an out-of-competition sample taken June 16 by USADA, said Jeff Novitzky, UFC's vice president of athlete health and performance. USADA administers the UFC's anti-drug policy.

"It is important to note, that under the UFC anti-doping policy, there's a full, fair legal-review process that is afforded to all athletes before any sanctions are imposed," Novitzky said.

This means he has been on PEDs for every fight in UFC.

Legacy laid waste.

He would probably spend most of his life in prison if it weren't for his fighting career. He got some money and fame out of it. So I guess all in all it was worth it to him.

Because I never get the feeling that everybody is being tested equally.

This will definitely hurt the card.  If they didn't have Lesnar back, they'd have virtually nothing at all, on what is supposed to be their biggest show ever.  If they still had Conor on the show, they'd be fine, but that ship has long sailed.

He just shit all over his entire career.  If it's PED's, it calls into question every fight he ever won. With the new USADA testing, any athlete is taking a big chance in using, especially with the lengthier suspension times.  Credit to the UFC for pulling him.  In the past, I could see such an announcement coming after the fight took place.

i think minimum he will get a year,  possibly two years.  it has to be major for the ufc to pull him like that for sure.


also it may be a violation of his parole so he may go to jail as well hopefully he does !

I agree.

Rampage, Evans and DC all called it on this guys character. These 3 guys are not pals at all. Rampage said he disliked Evans and didn't think he'd dislike a guy more until Jones came along.   

I remember Rashad was almost like a prophet when discussing this guy (Jones) and how everything around him will crumble one day.

DC has been on him from day one.

Lesnar is now the main card.  He signed a contract, so I don't believe he can renegotiate for more money at this stage.   Maybe there is a clause where he can.

Probably a dumb question, but is it possible to take an over-the-counter supplement that might contain a banned substance? Though I guess at this level he (and his camp) should be on top of such things.
Title: Re: Jon Jones removed from UFC 200 for possible doping violation
Post by: Mr.1derful on July 07, 2016, 01:44:08 PM
Jon Jones is lying his ass off.  When asked if he'd taken anything new supplement wise, he indicated he had, but didn't write it down and didn't know the name,  seemingly oblivious to what he consumes.  Rather odd behavior for someone under USADA testing, where there is a laundry list of banned substances to avoid.  He knows exactly what he took and took it with specific intent.  But now that he got caught, he plays the victim.  He just screwed himself, but more importantly, Daniel Cormier and everyone involved with this card.  He'll be saying good-bye for 2 years now.

Not impossible, but anyone competing under USADA testing would be very mindful of anything they take and the potential implications on their results.  We'll know better when they announce what substance was involved, but I don't believe for one second that this is a supplement issue. The guy was willing to take cocaine while competing, so I would not put it past him to take PED's.

I agree.

Also the list of banned sup's via USADA is online free to the public, so there is no excuses for the guy to even use the obligatory (I didn't know). He was burning PED's.

Even if he took the bad sup's, I think he could file some exception form informing USADA he might have taken the banned sup unknown and they'll show some mercy..but he has to report it.

No, no they fucking dont.....

I was thinking about this. I'm wondering if it's the new sponsors, tv contracts .etc. They can't be associated with a sport that didn't even try to control PED's in it. Pride FC as awesome but they had no sponsors or lucrative TV deals nor huge PPV's and eventually imploded.

I think UFC wanted to add other pipelines of revenue which includes tv deals with major networks, reebok lock up..etc ...Their hands might have been forced.

Now in return they won't lose these deals as a result of poor numbers. We might hate it, but business wise they should be stable.

PPV will suffer but not their sponsors and tv deals imo. Plus if you think about it...you just nailed a top paid UFC roster member...he gets ZERO. Nothing..so you lose no payroll expense in that direction.

If anything the top $$$ guys better be careful. They'd end up fighting for pennies after a PED fail. UFC run a show with them returning for next to nothing and cashing out on their name (b/c they are still under contract to perform in UFC)

Agreed.

Cormier was a total class act in his response to the suspension today.

This test was taken in June...something could have been done to give another guy the chance to step in and take on Cormier.

Daniel himself even said he would be willing to take on a 220 guy even after this hard diet he has went through to make it down to 205.

With 2 days notice though? That is going to be tough to be pull off.

We all loved PrideFC and didn't care they were juiced to the gills, but like I said..pride only could go so far globally and with the general public.

to answer your ?....the more mainstream anything becomes...the more followers show up to the party. We might love it but the mainstreamers who know jack shit about the sport will eventually pay the bills and outnumber us.

Therefore they get catered too. Kinda like planet fitness on one corner vs a hardcore golds gym across the street. I'm golds hardcore all day, but that shit across the street serving pizza and enforcing it's ok to be NOT in shape enjoy the WIFI for 10$ will get all the business.

Compared to where it was 20 years ago, it's not even debatable. It's been legalized in all states. It has made it to major networks. The Fertittas bought the UFC for $2 million in 2001, it could sell today for 4 billion.

Silva and Bones Jones strike me as prima donnas who only will fight on their own terms.

Cormier will rag doll him.

He'll embarrass Silva. Stupid move on his part.

As a person who will not personally be spending a dime on this package but rather will be attending a party where this event will be broadcasted, I am actually pretty stoked about Silva vs. Cormier.

Would I rather have Jones vs. Cormier? Sure. But under the circumstances this isn't a bad back up plan.

I assume Cormier will be the heavy favorite but regardless, it will be a very intriguing fight.

Kudos to Dana and the rest of the UFC crew for pulling this off.

Stain his legacy, though. Could be rather humiliating.

Not a good fight for Silva but maybe its worth the payday. I would prefer to see him against Bisping again and this time be handed the win (And title). I believe he got screwed in the last fight because it was on in the UK
UFC200 is more of a spectacle now with Bellator style matches
Brock Vs Hunt
Silva Vs DC

Miesha Tate has nice tits....

Without knowing how prevalent PEDs are in mma, I dunno, I can't really give the dude too much shit for this one - it seems like it is pretty common.

Jones just seems to cause perpetual drama for himself and the UFC. It's getting old.

Yup - I am interested again. Silva is one of my favourite fighters but I think Cormier is going to thrash him.
If he wins it will be huge

DC needed to get paid. Silva requested 3 rds which is understandable considering his surgery post bisping fight and not training for months..2 day notice...insane lol.

Props to Silva for saying fk it, I'll fight him and save the card.

And yes...He's going to get murdered.

Getting popped for PEDs already stained his legacy. Losing to the current LHW champ won't.

Colts DT Arthur Jones has been suspended for 4 games for violating NFL policy on performance enhancing substances.

And the other brother Chanler Jones who played for the Pats last year pulled a Fear and Loathing and ran into a police station half naked in the middle of winter swatting the sky as if bats were chasing him.

Exactly!!!

That was some Bruce Lee shit right there.

Reminds me of the old story of Bruce paying like 5 or 6 guys to all attack him at once so he can test out his Jeet Kune Do just to see if it worked lol.

Anderson on some GOD martial arts shit....and DC admitted afterwards he had to take the safe route and bore the fight because it was Silva. Crazy
