Dunno how I want it to go to be honest. Jones is Jones and one of the best and most exciting fighters the sport has seen but we’re unlikely to see that in this fight. If it goes the distance I think I’d like Cormier to keep the gold, but that seems the most unlikely outcome.
At least we got to see the fight this time I guess…
In fairness the statement doesn’t say what it is but after last time that really doesn’t matter. Any confirmed failure and he’ll never fight in the UFC again.
Edit: just read another article where the drug is in fact named.
I’m not sure why a professional fighter would need to use tbol but he’s a juice head and that was obvious from the way his body completely transformed itself.
Brendan Schaub read an email he received from a source on his podcast that said Jon Jones popped for Turinabol because he thought he was taking Mibolerone (apparently a drug that’s common in fighting and extremely difficult to test for) but had dodgy gear.
That would be really sad. Ferguson is no Eddie Alvarez. People are going to want to see Ferguson vs McGregor. And it would be a competitive fight (I think). I don’t want to question McGregor’s stature as a fighter, and I don’t blame him for chasing the money, but him not defending the 145-belt or fight Khabib/Ferguson is just sad.
