Regardless of what the odds makers or fight fans think of this Evans/Jones matchup, you can't deny that the dissolution of the Greg Jackson/Bones Jones/Rashad Evans 'family' is evolving into one the more intriguing story lines in recent memory. This is like Jeremy Horn and Pat Miletich fighting in 1999. Actually, maybe it would be like Matt Hughes fighting Jeremy Horn in 2002, yeah, that makes more sense. Imagine Miletich wiping his hands clean of the situation, leaving Tim Sylvia confused and wandering the cornfields of Iowa, terrifying. The latest chapter of this young but intriguing saga was written yesterday as Rashad Evans sat down (or stood, who knows really but him?) with Bloody Elbow and had some, you know, stuff to get off his chest.

"I mean it's one thing to say something in an interview but the least you could have picked up the phone and been like, "man I did an interview today and they kind of put me on the spot with a rough question and I answered it this way." At least give me the heads up so that way I know and not look at it if he's Judas or something. You know who Judas is? That interview was some backstabbing s**t but now it's like whatever because now I know the game he is playing. Then for Greg to sit back and say he doesn't want to have anything to do with it....why not? You f**kn created the situation. Be his coach and be in his corner. That's what you want so do it. I don't care if coaches against me. It doesn't even matter."

I saw The Last Temptation of Christ, I know who Judas Iscariot was. Judas was just fulfilling the Green Goblin's orders to rat him out to the Romans so he could fulfill his destiny and die on the cross.

just wanted to have a word with zues, are you guys considering putting jon jones on the frate train list ? i mean for the well being and legitimacy of that list itself, to have mousassi on there and no bones jones,,,,,,its just hilarious.

i know we all have our faves, but for a min if we can take out fan hat off and think of this rationally, jones has crushed his past opponents more impressively than overeem and aldo, JMO.

This website is full of lurking racists. Why on earth any post mentioning Jon Jones gets downvoted I do not know. The guy is the definition of frate trane and should have been on the list sooner.

That's why Silva and Overeem were left off the list too. Racists bastards!

Overeem needs to teach these crybabies how to act like champions.

"Him trying to hold me down round after round RT @psvolcom88: @Jonnybones what do you think will be most dangerous about rashad?"

Wonder if this could get ugly?

Jon Jones used to be more humble. Now he's acting like an ass.. he needs to know his place and show more respect.

Quoting okayyy:

Know his place? Is he still a challenger far from a title shot?

He can be as cocky as he wants as long as he keeps winning

I swear Rashad must be bipolar or something. I started out hating him and his cocky attitude. Then he pulled a 180 on TUF and I enjoy him on MMA Live. Now he pulls this baby bs and I'm back to disliking him. You had a falling out, move on, the more you say the bigger ass you look like.

once again, another misleading title from this website. i know this site is about the giggles, but the staff here should at least strive for journalistic accuracy.

he did not unequivocally call jones a judas.

I'd say to Evans & Jones... Guys, it's the UFC not the IFL. Yea you train in camp with other fighters, etc.. but in the end it's every man for himself.
why don't you both just STFU & fight. Isn't this is why you decided to take this sport on as a career? You wanted to win the title right?

Just like a black man to stab a brother in the back. JJJ = Jon Judas Jones!





Can someone get a tissue for Rashad. He's really hurting right now.

This "racism" bullshit is getting out of hand.

You guys need to STFU, because you're giving Middle Easy a bad name, crying wolf when there isn't a single shred of fucking proof.

Any post AGAINST JBJ is getting downvoted, yet I see someone stupidly say everyones downvoting any positive posts.

The ONLY reported case of racism(which I submitted to Zeus, and he banned Liger for it, hence why he's not saying that word anymore since coming back), was LIGER calling guys the n-word, and HE ROOTED FOR JON JONES.


So-- STFU ABOUT RACISM. We just like fights, and we have different fucking opinions than your's.

i think evans is still butthurt that HE, himself, got injured and his TEAMMATE got the titleshot. all this drama is stemming from evans cuz hes still a child. i like the way he fights but he needs to shut up and share the spotlight.

I was never a Shad fan (Because last we saw him he was clashing with Rampage who Im a much bigger fan of), but I really really hope he finds a way to beat JJ without getting KO'd. Fingers crossed waiting to see how this plays out...

I hope Rashad blows out his knee again, but in Bones face, so he makes it disappear. I hope, if Bones is going to stay for a long time, he grows up a little, but since he is already a champion in a dominant fashion, i doubt humbleness is something he will acquire anytime soon. People will learn how to fight Bones at a given time, as they did with Machida, although Bones is far far more difficult, not just because he engages, but because his enormous reach. I don't see Bones having a long defending streak as Anderson.
