I'm a big fan of Lauzon despite his terrible nickname, but this is the take of a jackass.
The UFC screwed the fighters and the fans. Jones just took a fight with the most worthy challenger available.
I bet most of these fighters that a trashing Jones kiss his ass when they inevitably run into him.

I agree that it's more the fault of the UFC than Jon Jones, but that is in no way a defense of Jon Jones.

But I am happy that Jones made the right decision.

You can't quote someone saying they are in no way defending jones then you go onto defend the decision he just made... Quit playing your little self righteous game and acting like a fucking women "oh these fans are so disgusting, how dare they get upset over getting fucked out of tix, hotel rooms and prolly time they planned on taking off for a while because sum fucking asshole didn't wanna show up to face an easier opponent on the exact same day he was already training to fight for months, and collect a massive fucking paycheck thats coming out of the fans pockets.Those assholes!" and that's just the fans. Forget about everyone else.

People like joe step up, be it short notice or whatever, to save cards and give the fans what they pay for. I'm not saying Jones is completely in the wrong to turn down this fight, but to call joe a jack ass is a bit much. Jones just turned down a fight that could have saved the card.. against a guy who didn't have a fight camp and was coming up in weight to fight him. I think there are 2 mentalities in this sport.. Fighters and athletes. Joe has the fighter mentality and Jones has the athlete mentality.

I got lucky. My birthday is sep 2 and I am a big Hendo fan. I saw him in st louis fight babalu. I have 2 kids and am a school teacher, so rich by no means. My wife and I had talked about going to vegas to watch, but luckily decided against. God that would have sucked.
