You know the deal by now.
When Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) declares a new division number one contender, they trot him into the Octagon post-fight to confront the champion for a brief staredown.
Or sometimes, it's the other way around.
Sort of how they did with Rashad Evans, bringing him into the cage in the aftermath of UFC 128 to have a brief face off against Jon Jones, who won the light heavyweight title by destroying Mauricio Rua.
Now the roles may be reversed if Evans can defeat Phil Davis at UFC on Fox 2 this Saturday night (Jan. 28, 2012) at the United Center in Chicago, Illinois. "Bones" may be the post-fight interloper.
If so, what will "Suga" tell him?
Via MMA Weekly:
"If he steps into the cage, I won't say nothin' stupid like, 'You're ruining my night! You're ruining my special night, Jon!' I'm not gonna say that. It's immature, it's childish. That's it."
Evans is referring to comments Jones made about his former training partner "ruining his special night" on two separate occasions by being asked to step into the cage.
From his UFC 135 remarks:
"No, I'm sure he's got a lot to say and he's going to do a lot of talking. I'm not going to say anything, I promise you guys, leading up to this fight I'm not going to say much. I'm just going to prove it. He's ruined my special night twice now. The time will come."
None of this means anything if Evans can't get past "Mr. Wonderful," who may ruin a few nights of his own with a win in "The Windy City." Anyone predicting an upset?
Here's Evans' take:

Pretty much
Rashad’s a master at promoting contrived artificial feuds.
Money Pool Season 6 begins 30th December.
ViolentMike, DarksideDrew and Yan will all fail.
On 30th December the Pain Train shall disband.
i won't believethis fight is happening
Until the ref says “lets get it on”
Chubby chasin johnson fan. I foolishly picked an unproven middleweight over belfort. And now i'm stuck with this sig for 2 weeks.

I'm letting this one go Newf, Too easy.
I hope to one day be as tired of losing as my family are of walking in on me jerking it to hockey fights. I need help. I penetrate myself with a signed Steve Nash puck and have overstretched my sphincter muscles. This is only one reason why I cry myself to sleep in a bath full of BBQ sauce while eating leftover takeaways. This is a plea while I’m of sound mind to help me raise money for corrective surgery to repair my mouth after years of abusing it working the gloryhole circuit. I’m finally ready to take the maniacs advice and begin the long and painful journey towards being able to keep my mouth shut.
Sig Bet Record:
1 Win - ItalianStallion54(Frankie over Gray)
1 Loss - GrappleFan(Lil Nog over Tito)
1 Win - ItalianStallion54(Nate over Donald)
1 Win - Unambig(Barboza over Etim)
1 Loss - Grapplefan(Kamal lose to Khabib)
1 PENDING - OilCheck(Weidman over Maia)
TAKING SIG BET OFFERS ON CONDIT, KOSCHECK, POIREIR, RENAN.
I REFUSE TO PUBLICLY SAY I WILL PICK WERDUM SINCE I HAVE A PERSONAL PROBLEM WITH THE SHIT HE TALKED ABOUT THE REEM.

This is what will happen, Rashad will enter the Octogon, raise his hand and shoot out three fingers. Then grabs the mic and says, now cry.! Drops the mic and exits the octogon
I've got something to say; it better to burn out than to fade away!!!
I'm still waiting for my CM Punk WWE Ice Cream Bar.

It would lead me to believe that @bisping must have pissed off @danawhite something fierce. RT @drjamezkelske: @danhendo just out of curiosity, if the #ufc comes to you and asks you to fight Bisping again how do you respond?" -Dan Henderson
You're an idiot.

it's gonna be some jackson on jackson crime?
I went 0-2 against Phasebook. Why do I feel that I am just padding his record?" Next time I won’t pick a guy whose best weapon is a somersault against a real bad guy like Scarface.
Check out what I've been drinking lately

Or in this case, Rooban. Boom! And one …
It is not enough to succeed. Others must fail.

Rashad is goig to say................
“Please dont drop me like a sack of potatoes like you did Machida. I mean come on……..what did I ever do to you? Cant we all just get along? Friends? Please dont hurt me.”
Evans: "You are so lucky that my vagina is broke Jon or I'd maul you."
Jones: “No, you’re so lucky that MY vagina is broke or I’d crush you Rashad because I’m the greatest and god loves me more.”
Something along those lines.
You mind your own damn business.
