Jon Jones “Why I Didn’t Fight Chael Sonnen”

Short notice T, meh

Jon Jones came under huge heat yesterday as he didn’t take a fight against “The American Gangster” on 8 days notice. Does that mean Bones was scared? I personally think Jones would walk through Chael Sonnen, Here’s what “Bones had to say “ Dan Henderson got hurt, and the fight was canceled. I signed a contract a long time ago to fight Dan Henderson. That’s what I studied for, and that’s what I prepared myself for. To take a fight with a different opponent in which I would basically have three days of training before traveling and then starting to cut weight I just thought would be the dumbest idea ever. I wouldn’t have been properly prepared.I definitely apologize to the other fighters on the card. I feel terrible, but it also wasn’t my decision to cancel the whole card. I don’t make those decisions. I apologize to the people that lost money on tickets and travel and things like that. I don’t apologize for my decision, but I do apologize for the way it affected people. I hope people can understand I was just trying to do the best thing for my career. I’m moving forward. I’m continuing to work, and I’m working on transforming my body from great shape to phenomenal shape. My goal now is to beat Lyoto better than I did the first time. I want to be a better version of myself, and I’m looking forward to it.”  S/O to MMAJunkiefor the scoop.-TO
