Jon Jones: Rashad Evans was never my friend, just a jealous snake

Breaking news! Jon Jones and Rashad Evans don't like each other!
Now more than ever, especially after Evans defeated Tito Ortiz in the main event of UFC 133 back on August 6 in Philadelphia, solidifying his status as the light heavyweight division's number one contender.
The performance, which Jones referred to as the "same stuff" he's always seen from his former training partner, snapped a 14-month layoff and a change in fights, camps and opponents.
Following the fight, "Suga" told media members at the "Evans vs. Ortiz 2" press conference that he wants to "teach Jon Jones a lesson."
"Bones" took to his official Twitter account to respond:
"Sometimes I feel like apologizing for whatever I did to him to make him hate me so much. He's says I betray him. I clearly said I would HATE to have to fight my teammate and the ONLY way it could ever possibly happen is if Dana would fire me over it. He used that to start calling me Judas and a @JacksonsMMA [traitor]. He was looking for an excuse to bring out his envy after I won the belt. He was never my friend, he's a jealous snake."
These two are expected to settle their differences in early 2012 -- assuming Jones can overcome the challenge of former light heavyweight champion Quinton Jackson at UFC 135 on September 24 in Denver.
In the meantime, prepare yourselves for months of anger, bitterness and name calling. And that's just from my Nostradumbass predictions column. But while we're at it, we should probably prepare for the same thing from two of the world's top 205-pounders.
Are you ready to see these two throw down? Or predicting "Rampage" to play spoiler?

This is what’s what ok people, no one can beat this kid so all the crying wont do jack shit. In the end, his answer to all the nonsense and blah blah blah is elbows until the guy taps out.

Anyone in the top of the UFC can beat this kid. Will they? Maybe not but everyone can be beat at his championship level.

Hamill already discovered the secret to beating Jones. Your head fucking up his elbows. Works like a charm.

True
And you don’t need a decent ground game or good striking to impliment the Hamil gameplan.

predicting “Rampage” to play spoiler
and take revenge on Evans….well I hope anyway. Evans is right Page will have to be much better than he was vs Hamill. What worries me about Page is his style is very predictable and this will be Jackson’s(Bones coach) 3rd time against Page in Pages last five fights. If PAge does not change up some of his tactics I think he will be in for a long night as Jackson is to good of a coach to come in against using the same tactics and Bones is the best fighter that Jackson will coaching vs Page. A simple change in tactics could change everything and something I think Page has to do……I hope.

Lance Gibson is an alpha type of coach just like juanito.
Rampage doesnt like those kinds of coaches because they make you do stuff especially when it’s really not convenient. You know stuff like run in the morning or a few more rounds with new guys or putting down the xbox. But if he can hire guys who’ll just say ok to him then it’s all good. Quite frankly i dont even think he’ll make weight. No sure if dolce is with him anymore since it was lance’s girlfriend who seemed to be his dietician for the last fight.

Page has always made weight, I don't think that will be an issue
His conditioning has been suspect though and could be a factor. More than anything PAge needs to use all phases of his game instead of simply wanting to box.

After many years of savoring the sweet taste of Fedor’s gizz, it seems that some has shot into my eyes, thus blinding me into thinking Fedor could finish a legend like Dan Henderson, who has never been Ko’d in 36 fights. As always, Dana White had it right all along. Dana truly is God’s gift to Mixed Martial Arts.
It's awesome any way it turns out
If Page wins then Shad vs Page is great build up, if Jones win then Bones vs Shad has already sold itself 10x over.

jones vs jackson
can jones out wrestle jackson? can he out strike jackson? With denver’s elevation who will gas first? Jackson has gone 5 rounds with both henderson/griffin … jones’ style is explosive and dynamic while jackson’s is conservative and reserved. variety vs power. Like most fights i have no clue what’s will happen and i eagerly await the opening bell

can jones out wrestle jackson? can he out strike jackson?
Yes and Yes…but only because of his rediculous advantage in length and leverage. If they were the same size, I’d give Rampage a slight edge on boxing, experience, and strength, with Bones still having a big advantage in strategy. But given the size difference and Rampage’s refusal to gameplan, I don’t see how Rampage wins this fight, and I am a huge Rampage fan.
"Who's da MASTA?!!!"
Bones-Rashad in 2012
Can’t wait. I’m a fan of both guys (can guarantee I’m the only Bones and Rashad fan left on the Internet) so once this pointless beatdown of BA Baracus is over and done with we can get a 205 superfight. I also can guarantee that there’ll be brohugs, smiles and tears after this one is done with and they’ll be BFFs once again.
Anderson Silva is still the P4P King of MMA and will be 14-0 in the UFC after Rio, Jon Jones is the future P4P King and will smash Quittin inside 3 rounds and I told everyone from the start that Cain and JDS were the best 2 HWs in the world. TRT is the get out clause for drug cheats and UFC 133 officially sucks.
Jones vs Rashad will be a legitimate number 1 vs number 2
…That’s if Jones beats Page though…Page is going to be a very tough test for Jones
Fedor "The Can Crusher" Emeilianko IS NOT THE BEST HW EVER , in fact he sucks! he has the most padded record in the history of any combat sport, scratch that in the history of any sport. He has not changed as a fighter , he is still just as good as he was then, only difference is he isn’t fighting freaks and nobodies, I , along with many others have been duped into believing he is great, when clearly he is NOT!
by Starr788 on Aug 8, 2011 11:29 AM EDT via mobile up reply actions
no he isn't
Page is going to be a very tough test for Jones
As a die-hard Rampage fan, I wish that were true. But Rampage has become so one-dimensional and predictable…and with Greg Jackson in his corner, Bones is gonna know everything Page is gonna do before Page even knows he’s gonna do it. And Bones will pick him apart the way he did Shogun…and maybe even finish him with knees ala Wandy. Rampage has one of the best chins in history, but I don’t know if it can stand up to Bones’s longass knees in a muythai clinch.
"Who's da MASTA?!!!"
false
im still a fan of both…that being said, i see bones beating rashad pretty badly
"This could be the worst disaster we've ever faced"
"With all due respect, sir, I believe this is gonna be our finest hour"
everybody sees bones beating everybody really badly
It’s the same when Machida got the belt, it’s just crazy to me that a guy wins a title fight, doesn’t have 1 title defense yet but he’s the next A. Silva/GSP; I don’t know why you guys do this to yourselves every time a promising fighter comes around…

I don't buy into Jones. His only impressive thing was beating an off-surgery Shogun badly.
If that was what kings are made off, Forrest would be the P4P champ.

if you don't buy into him, who would you have him as an underdog against?
If you can’t think of anyone at LHW that would be the favorite against Jones, then maybe you do buy into him since you think he is the best in the division.

I don't make the odds. But I will surely be betting on Page closer to fight time at +350

It’s not that he beat Shogun coming off a surgery or not. It is that he clowned Shogun. Coleman and Forrest fought him coming off a surgery and didn’t clown him. Rua was toe to toe with Forrest before gassing and even Coleman didn’t have an real success.
Jones straight clowned him. When had anyone put Rua on the fence and tee’d off on him. Spinning back fists, flying knees and back handed slaps while in his dangerous guard. Prime Rampage didn’t do that, prime Lil Nog didn’t. Surgery or not, he had never been destroyed.

because i didnt see machida beating everyone really badly…machida was talented and elusive, but he lacked the variety, size, and killer instinct that bones has
"This could be the worst disaster we've ever faced"
"With all due respect, sir, I believe this is gonna be our finest hour"
Sorry.....did you just say Machida didn't have the variety and killer instinct Jones has?
Hmmm, I’ll chalk that up to your clear JJ bias. It’s ok, almost everyone seems to be drinking the Cool-aid.
So, what was that about no killer insticnt or variety?
the people who talk about jones like he's a god

Machida would disagree
How can shad vs jones be the legit no1 and no2? Machida beats shad all day and he’s the best chance we have of shutting jones up. IMO
Jon jones is an excellent fighter and athlete, but as a person there are not enough words to describe how much of a bell end he is.
How is Machida #2? Comin off 2 losses out of his last 3 fights..
god I hate machida fans…

Yeah But
Machida did the left fake, to right, karate kid style. So he one-upped Anderson with coolness.
definitely. both absolutely stunning, but Machida's was just 2 notches cooler

for sure, but due to the 2nd punch, I just can’t call that my favorite. If he had just walked away, it would be #1.

By all that is right and holy in this miserable universe, Henderson’s fistdrop provided a glimpse of hope for our ravaged species.
In other words: that fistdrop was da bomb, yo!!!
Silva put the lights out on Vitor
Couture has some consciousness left
After the way he beat shad
But now you believe the UFC hype machine and think he’s better than the guy that knocked him out cold.
God I hate idiots
Jon jones is an excellent fighter and athlete, but as a person there are not enough words to describe how much of a bell end he is.
After the way he beat shad and then went on to lose
While Shad went on to win. It has nothing to do with the hype machine, Evans is comin off 3 wins, Machida is comin off 1 win, why the hell does he get to leap frog Evans just cause he won a fight between them 2 years ago?? You make NO sense

I agree OJ. But I don't know if that will give him the victory.
Machida is capable of staying out of takedown range and even if caught he can prevent the td quite nicely. Removing myself from being a Machida fan and looking at it objectively, I think Shad’s best way to win, is fake the strikes, close the distance and use that fence. From there, he can go for td’s.
Clearly, I want to see Machida beat everyone, but all fighters have holes in their games, even Jon “Jesus” Jones.
Also, did everyone note Joe Rogan’s unabashed man-love for Rashad on Saturday? It was pretty disgusting.
“Physically, he looks SHREDDED”
“Rashad’s SPEED is UNBELIEVABLE”
“Rashad just looks so cut right now”
“Rashad is just DOMINATING Tito with his buffness”.
Ok, I made the last one up.

How does machida deserve a title shot?
He lost 2 in a row and his one win was against a 48 year old randy. Shad beat thiago(top 10), page(top 4), and tito. Page beat machida(top 5) and hamil, but still only gets the shot because of the whole jones injury fiasco.

I can’t wait for Jon Jones to beat the shit out of rashad cuz there’s no way rampage beats Jones except for that 1 lucky punch scenario. Rashad imo didn’t look that great against tito, if tito can land a few punches and get the takedown on rashad, he’s dead vs Jones

he won't be able to do it
Rampage is coming of two wins, he comes better in shape every fight plus i think he got a lot smarter gameplanning wise. Shogun had to deal with ringrust and comingback with from a serieus knee injury.

He will get one of the worst beatings he’s ever faced in the UFC, perhaps so bad he may just take to acting full time. I, for one, do not wish that on anyone.

At least I know how bad an actor he is now after sitting through the A-Team
That saved me a lot of time and money. Bones is too big, quick, long, strong, technical, well rounded, motivated, well coached, fit, intelligent and athletic to even slightly be troubled by Quittin. After Bones lands the first strike and takes Rampage down the first down it’ll be a matter of when BA quits. This’ll be his worst beating since he showed up fat against Shogun.

There is some luck involved.
You don’t know exactly what your opponent is going to do when you throw a punch. You can anticipate, but you can’t know for sure. If there was no luck involved, every punch would land.
And yes skill obviously comes into play as well, but if skill was all that mattered, then the more skillful fighter would always win, and we know this isn’t always the case.

Todd Duffee vs Mike Russow
Yes there was skill, some conditioning, execution, but a whole lot of heart and luck in that punch in my eyes.

But how was there luck? He took tremendous damage and still had the skill to knock his opponent out. I don't see any luck there.
Heart, yes, but that’s part of conditioning in my mind.

Russow did exhibit perfect Skill + Gameplan + Conditioning + Execution in his glorious hammer fist that proved to be the finishing blow to the Duff Man.

Luck that Duffee didnt see it coming
Luck that if he did see it, reacted too slowly, or reacted in the wrong way. Luck that Todd’s chin wasn’t as good as it seemed. You can do everything you can to set things up to the best of your ability but there is still that little bit at the end that is out of your hands, the part you have no influence over when you are competing against another flesh and blood opponent. That’s the part I consider to be luck.
In baseball its when you hit a line drive or pop fly right to the left fielder and he drops it. In football its when the quarter back has a bad throw right at the safety and it goes right through his hands. It’s luck for you that he either wasn’t skilled enough or made a simple mistake.

Those things you mentioned are not luck at all, in fact you are further proving my point. In Baseball and Football there is a ball that can bounce. In MMA there is only you and your opponent.
Luck that if he did see it, reacted too slowly, or reacted in the wrong way. Luck that Todd’s chin wasn’t as good as it seemed.
That’s lack of skill for Duffee.
Lack of conditioning.

That part is exactly the difference in skill, experience, preparation, conditioning etc. NOT luck.

i was at a party that night
and so i came home hammered and watched the DVR of the card…passed out through the 3rd round of that fight…needless to say i was shocked when i saw russow won the next day
"This could be the worst disaster we've ever faced"
"With all due respect, sir, I believe this is gonna be our finest hour"
When I saw him 1 min into rd. 2 with his arms hanging at his sides and suckin wind I thought it was over
If anything I was frustrated that it took Russow so long to see it, I thought for sure Duffy was gonna lose, I did not expect the big KO. I figured in the 3rd it was gonna be a TD that Duffy was too tired to stop and GnP TKO ref stoppage.

A ball having an odd bounce would be hard to direct blame at a player.
And you’re right, its lack of skill or judgment on their part, but again, you have little to no influence on that, so to you its luck. Lucky for you he slacked off on training, for him, its bad judgment.
Duffee showed good skill and conditioning Il until that point, perhaps got a little sloppy and momentary lapse in judgment, but that wasn’t due to Russia, he didn’t cause that, he just took advantage. He didn’t do anything to set that up besides eat a tremendous amount of punches.
You can have the greatest skill set, training, and experience, but everybody can get caught. You can be better at everything over your opponent, and he can still catch you with one good punch (GSP and Serra). Training, preparation, and all that give you to tools to succeed, you use them to win, but sometimes stuff just happens that is out of your control. Say you are about to fight a guy who is better than you at just about everything. I count your opponent taking you lightly or not fighting to their full potential as bad judgment on their part, but luck on yours, because you in no way had any influence in it. It wasn’t necessarilyonly your dedication that won you the fight, but a lack of dedication on theirs.
by jestermarcus on Aug 8, 2011 1:30 PM EDT via mobile up reply actions
It's "luck" when you're better?
Oh man Anderson is so lucky Vitor didn’t move when he knocked his ass out with a front kick. And he was super lucky Sonnen tapped to that triangle/arm-bar he got by pure chance. Anderson is so lucky his opponents aren’t as good as him. I mean as lucky.
Outfielder misses a catch: error on his part. QB throws an interception: bad pass on his part. Fighter gets KOed because his didn’t avoid a strike: it’s his fault he’s not more skillful. Luck has nothing to do with it. Luck is winning the lottery, not when your opponent screws up.
by d.rok on Aug 8, 2011 1:13 PM EDT via mobile up reply actions
I already agreed its bad judgment on their part.
But you as an opponent don’t have much influence in their judgment. Unless you have previously given them reason to pause.
And about the football reference, you misread it. I said say the quarterback throws a bad pass right at the safety, but the guy drops it. It is a lack of reflexes/skill/judgment on his part, but the quarterback is lucky he defence didn’t capitalize on his mistake. Both parties have made mistakes, both need to hone their skills, but one is lucky the other’s mistake was more damning.
Like I said, training gets you only so far. Say you get booked to fight a guy that is just tailor made to beat you style wise, say he’s a wrestler and you are a straight up brawler with no ground game, and come fight night, he has decided to stand and bang with you. You knock him out. That is horrible game planning on his part and bad training, but for you, you got lucky he decided to be stupid. You didn’t cause him to stand, you didn’t keep it standing, he just had a dumb game plan and you capitalized. You used your strengths, but a little bit of luck helped.
by jestermarcus on Aug 8, 2011 1:59 PM EDT via mobile up reply actions
What you're describing means almost everything is luck based.
If that was true, no one would bother training. You absolutely CAN predict what someone is going to do. Maybe not everything, but you can pick up their movements, attacks, and reactions and attack/defend accordingly. This is what we call “skill” and it comes from training. Otherwise it would just be dudes swinging randomly at each other.
Again, if so much of being good is getting lucky, why are the most skillful fighters winning? Are they coincidentally also more lucky?
Bottom line is if you intend to hit someone and you do, that’s not luck. There is 0% luck involved. Your interpretation is just plain dumb.
by d.rok on Aug 8, 2011 3:38 PM EDT via mobile up reply actions
if there's no luck, why aren't the most skilled fighters finishing every fight with their first punch?
skill and training stack the odds in your favor, but it’s still luck that your opponent’s head is 1 inch higher or lower when your punch lands and that 1 inch means the difference between a KO or him laughing in your face.
"Who's da MASTA?!!!"
I don't get what you're trying to say.
The reason all fights don’t end in the first minute is these are highly trained professional athletes, not middle school kids fighting after school on the baseball diamond.
I’m done with this. If you want to believe you have no control over your actions and life is luck based, good for you.
by d.rok on Aug 8, 2011 5:34 PM EDT via mobile up reply actions
nobody is saying that.
what we are saying is that no matter how much control you have over your actions, you don’t have control over the situation. There are a lot of factors you can’t control, like what the other fighter is gonna do. If everything was under the fighters’ control and based completely on skill & dedication, then the most skilled dedicated fighter would have the skill and control to make sure his first punch landed exactly where he wanted it to and ended the fight. Nobody has that much control over the outcome of the fight because there are too many variables. The more you train, the better your chances are of eventually accomplishing your goals. In reality every KO has a degree of luck involved, because you can hit the same guy in the same spot on his head over and over again and on numbers 1,2,3,4,5,7,8,9, and 10 he will keep coming, but on #6, he may have looked away for a split second and he gets put to sleep. You had the skill to throw that punch, but no amount of your training or dedication made him not see that particular one coming.

by FarNorCal on Aug 8, 2011 11:31 AM EDT via mobile reply actions
Were you watching the same fight as me
I have never seen Rashad look like that, he was viscous mean nasty, showed zero respect to a former champ. Rashad looked like a man on a mission, he looked like a different fighter, he looked like a monster.
because he left jackson's
if anyone with a wrestling background enters jackson’s camp, he pretty much forces them to wrestle in every fight, he is doing the same with GSP, he is trying to do that with jones, but jones doesnt follow his directions, if you hear closely in his corner, jackson will often say get in the clinch and drag him down.
Rashad was looking great
Even moving position and going for the mountend crucifix i have never seen him do that.

But while we’re at it, we should probably prepare for the same thing fromtwo of theone of the world’s top 205-pounders and a fucking heavyweight who believes cutting over 20lbs is fair competition, as well as blocking the breathing of his rival and intentionally trying to blow out the opponent’s knee in order to prevent him from doing a living in the name of ‘competition’.

they were gonna fight, not gonna fight…then in came davis, then Tito…Jones had to beat shogun, now rampage…..this is no way a stunt.
Poor guy must fuck like dog shit
bro, thats ridiculous
first of all, everyone knows that blocking your opponents face with your hand so its harder for them to breathe is a valid technique used by alot of fighters…ive used it in grappling competitions myself, and had it used against me, its not fun, but its effective and thats why its used…and if everyone who cut over 20 pounds wasnt allowed to, the divisions would look alot different – brock lesnar would not be allowed in the UFC, bones would be a heavyweight, anderson would be a LHW, etc…theres no rule stating that you cant cut over a certain amount, so actually hes being completely fair

looks to me like jones is the jealous one!
why wait till rashad to win a fight in impressive fashion, he already said all he had to say about shad, why call him a snake now ? doesn’t add up. somebody is not liking all the attention shad is getting.
Bones has a swollen head/ego
He let his title win and domination of Shogun go to his head. Now he’ll be all butt hurt every time someone shows him the slightest bit of disrespect.
On a different note, I’m hoping Shad and bones meet and they knock each other out. Who wins if both fighters get KTFO’d, like in that new commercial with Kenny Main.(sp?)
No, I read Bones' tweets. His feelings are hurt.
He never wanted to fight Rashad and feels Rashad turned on him for no good reason. I saw the whole interview wherein Rashad claims Bones’ screwed up their pact. Bones did nothing of the sort, said nothing to get Rashad acting that way. IMO Rashad has been using this whole “I don’t fight teammates” thing to avoid fighting guys who know his weaknesses and to keep those guys out of his way in the Title hunt. Now that Bones has the title, Rashad makes up some beef and throws that out the window. Bones bought into Rashad’s “brotherhood” bullshit and feels genuinely hurt that Rashad turned on him. He’s been trying on Twitter to show that he never betrayed Rashad and never wanted to fight him.
I think if Rashad changed his tune, Bones would drop this whole thing in a second and welcome him back as a brother. But Rashad won’t do that because Bones has “his” belt. Rashad has always been a two-faced poser. Bones just didn’t see it coming and is expressing his hurt at being betrayed by someone he thought was a genuine friend.

Jon jones is an excellent fighter and athlete, but as a person there are not enough words to describe how much of a bell end he is.
rampage couldnt find rashad’s chin, hamill’s or machida’s, little chance he will have any luck with a guy with the longest reach in the UFC. its wishful thinking.

he is not fighting wanderlei anymore, guys arent gonna come charging at him like that leaving their chin open, the sport has evolved, and so have fighters, its up to rampage to find a home for his shots, which he has failed miserably at since the wandy fight.
When I watch Jones fight I don't see the great footwork you're talking about
He likes to do unorthodox things but he’s using his reach and his height, I don’t see him dancin around in there like Ali..

blah blah blah
Page can’t take out anyone when he’s comin in off a lay off and not training. We all know he’s got a problem staying in shape outside of the camps and when he’s not actively fighting, but this is his 3rd fight inside 11 months and there’s no indication that he’s way out of shape or not taking anything seriously. The red flag I’ve seen so far is his coach quitting on him.

Rampage has a very traditional, orthodox style
And does not get credit for it cause it’s not as flashy but it damn sure gets the job done, he does not drop his hands and his offensive power is excellent. He is technically one of the best boxers in MMA skill wise and he’s got great hands and counter punching. If Jones tries to get flashy in there with Page he may very well get himself KO’d. If you guys wanna count that guy out and say he has no chance, then be my guest, but I think that’s foolish.

He didn't run in the 3rd RD when he whooped Page's ass. :)

He didn't even knock Page on his ass, he landed a couple good shots and Page fired back at him
They got into a clinch and then Machida failed on an armbar attempt. That 2 mins of action doesn’t win you the other 13 mins of the fight.

Each rd is scored on 10 pts, if you're wanting PRIDE rules back those judges would've gone to Machida
In the current rule system rd. 3 has NOTHING to do with rds. 1 and 2. That’s Machida’s own fault for running for 10 minutes, giving up 2 TD’s and letting Page dictate the pace of the fight.

Rashad Dominated That Fight Completely
Outstruck Rampage on the feet and dominated on the ground. It’ll happen that way every time they fight too. Expect Rashad will finish Rampage next time.
Did YOU watch that fight???
He wrestle fucked for 3 rnds and landed one shot that caught him off balance in the first…thats it….

Not Interested in Your Opinion
Look at the stats. They say Rashad dominated everywhere. http://blog.fightmetric.com/2010/08/evans-vs-jackson-fightmetric-report.html

Lol, My &-Year Old's Favorite Fighter is Rampage
He developing and early disdain for Rashad. In fact, before the fight he play Undisputed and beat the crap outta Rashad with Tito. XD

Edgar like
jabs don’t count as many points though in MMA G squat and many time Fight Metric numbers on strikes do not equal the winner. You say dominated and even Evans doesn’t agree, he did enough to win but he took more punishment(from heavy hits) than Page did from his jabs

Not true G squat Page had Evans down and hurt and really the only time either fighter was in danger of being finished
Evans used the points system to hit a move(edgar like) but he never dominated
"I felt like I was getting raped by Freddy Mercury"-Tank on losing to Dan Severn
Had All the TD's
… Did lots of GnP with them, and won on the feet. Don’t see how one moment of a fight erases all the domination up to that point. Especially when Rashad ended right back up on top after that, punching Rampage in the head.
Page was never in danger of being finished...Evans was other than that it was Evans using the point system were he did a good job I agree
Evan had a big shot early on but other than that PAge was in no danger.
"I felt like I was getting raped by Freddy Mercury"-Tank on losing to Dan Severn
Well
I’m not trying to covince you of anything, just saying I saw a pretty controlling fight for Evans. Meaning, whatever he wanted to happen, was happening.
He won a U-decision but it was not dominating
"I felt like I was getting raped by Freddy Mercury"-Tank on losing to Dan Severn
It was a good fight that Evans won in my opinion 29-28 taking rounds one and three
It’s a fight that most of wanted to see another two rounds, when a fighter is domianted that means he shgowed no chance of winning and is usually beat up pretty bad. Were in this fight I think Page had caused near equal damage if not more but lost the points battle
"I felt like I was getting raped by Freddy Mercury"-Tank on losing to Dan Severn
I agree it was a clear victory for Rashad
But it wasn’t dominating. Page didn’t get smashed in fact he came closer to winning the fight than Rashad did. He just couldn’t control the fight or keep it where he wanted it, Rashad was able to impliment his game plan, had some really good TD’s and the fight went his way.

It was a struggle though, many times when he went for take downs Page stuffed and he got a bunch of body blows in the clinch
"I felt like I was getting raped by Freddy Mercury"-Tank on losing to Dan Severn
LOL dominated?!?
What fight did you watch?? Take off the blinders. Machida did jack shit for 2 rds and let Page dictate the pace of the entire fight with the exception of a flurry in Rd. 3. He decisively won ONE rd of the fight… How is that dominating?

Naw, BD. I will be objective and say that I gave the fight to Page on points with the 1st 2 RDs but Machida took his lunch in the 3rd RD, brother. Real talk.

It wasn't the ass wooping that it's made out to be
It wasn’t even close to the caliber of an ass wooping Carwin vs Lesnar Rd. 1 or Frankie vs Maynard rd. 1 or GSP vs Jon Fitch the entire fight.

It was a close fight
And the last rd was fresh in his mind, it’s not like he even got a chance to watch the fight before he spoke.

This is true big dawg
"I felt like I was getting raped by Freddy Mercury"-Tank on losing to Dan Severn
his corner told him he was commuting a career suicide so he changed his tone, he was speaking from the heart before.
He was speaking less than 2-3 mins after losing the 3rd rd in a very close fight
Hyped up on adrenaline.

BONEs is 100% right
This is exactly what happened and Rashad went right to his interviews and started calling Bones out…. Rashad is the one that created this tiff.
"Some have wrestled without great skill - none have wrestled without pride."
IF Page wins (and I’m not saying he will), what are the chances that Rashad would turn down the title shot to fight Bones? Wouldn’t be the smartest decision, but It would make for a hell of a PPV.
also why he backstabbed Bones
I’ve never agreed with the “I don’t fight friends” crap, but if you’re gonna preach it, don’t turn around and stab your brother in the back as soon as he has something you want. Rashad has always been a two-faced little bitch. I honestly think he’s so two-faced he believes his own bullshit and actually thinks of himself as a nice guy in spite of all the shit he does.
"Who's da MASTA?!!!"
Idk
I keep going back and forth on Shad. I’m going to wait to see how all this plays out
