UFC 128 Post Post + Pictures















































Jon "Bones" Jones proved the hype wrong. There was not enough as he demolished "Shogun" Rua and became the biggest MMA star today!

Coach Mike Winkeljohn stated after the fight, “There was a turning point after the second round where we were real scared, because [Jones] was tired. He had pressed all day long. Well, shit, the whole last two weeks, [cameras] following him around 24-7. I think all that hoopla got to him, and the pressure got to him a little bit. He was tired after the second round, and I was worried. But you know what he did? He pushed through it, and that is a champion. That is a veteran. At 23 years old, that is incredible."

If that weren't enough, before he forcefully took the strap, Jones was doing what has become his ritual before a fight, meditating at a park in Patterson, NJ when he heard a woman scream, "I've been robbed!" Jones began chasing the man for a good distance. When the fighter caught up with the alleged robber, he knocked the guy's legs out from under him, then placed him in a figure-four leg lock until Paterson cops arrived. "I caught him....Coach Jackson finished him ... It feels so good to help others. It gives me power and energy." said an elated Jon.

But things aren't all gravy as teammate Rashad Evans is the #1 contender. Coach Greg Jackson had said he would pull out and corner neither fighter but now "Suga" has spoke up and bashed his now former coach on Twitter. "Many of u probably already seen that I got offered the title shot & decided 2 take it. @jonnybones fought amazing! I'm very happy 4 him! I no longer will use Greg Jackson as my coach but we r still coo! 505 4life I will not use Greg ever again.. I really haven't used him in a while anyways.. In my last 2 fights I trained with him 5x's.. Greg brought this situation about. He brought Jones on board a while back against my wishes & here we r today. so I decided 2 leave Greg because I felt like he didn't have my best interest anymore. Greg is not the same coach he use 2 b."

This is going to get real ugly before it is settled in the cage. Mark my words. In the meanwhile, Jones is a walking superhero.

Greg Jackson's camp is possibly avoiding more turmoil as Nate Marquardt is contemplating a move to Welterweight if Georges St. Pierre moves up to Middleweight. The "Great" is a large 185er and I have no idea how he could make this weight. Nate easily dispatched Dan Miller by Decision but he also doesn't want to face teammate and friend GSP in battle.

Mirko "Cro Cop" Filipovic has been cut from the UFC. 27-9-2 in a MMA career full of highlights and the awe of fans across the world. 4-5 in the UFC, time simply caught up to the man who never quite made a full transition from K-1 to MMA. Luckily, his stand up was so devastating that he destroyed more than he lost and developed a takedown defense 2nd to none. It is simply time to walk away as we sadly see the "old guard" pass on the torch. Mirko has not officially retired but had said before if he was cut from the UFC that he would retire. We shall see.

Speaking of the new guard, Brendan Schaub has called out Antonio Nogueira for a fight in his home of Brazil. Obviously the "Hybrid" has noticed the age on some of these "legends" and is using the end of their careers to make his name. Nothing wrong with that but the guy is a fraudulent asshole. Nice work last night fighting dirty and getting a point deducted which people have immediately forgot. Punching to the back of the head is illegal and Schaub did it all night. Welcome to my shitlist homie.

The fact that Jim Miller isn't the #1 contender to Frankie Edgar is nothing short of a crime. That's 7 in a row in the UFC and 20-2 overall. Two straight finishes quiets the fans whispering "decision fighter" and does he just get no love because he is humble and doesn't talk shit to other fighters? I didn't think you should be punished for that. The UFC needs to take care of this guy financially or with the title shot he deserves.

Mauricio Rua: Suspended indefinitely pending CT head scan, minimum 60-day suspension for TKO loss
Brendan Schaub: Suspended indefinitely pending CT scan of facial/orbital bones, minimum 60-day suspension for facial laceration
Mirko Filipovic: Suspended indefinitely pending CT head scan, minimum 30-day suspension for knockout loss and facial lacerations
Raphael Assuncao: Suspended 30 days for knockout loss
Jon Jones: Suspended indefinitely pending X-ray, MRI and orthopedic clearance of right hand
Kamal Shalorus: Suspended indefinitely pending CT scan of facial/orbital bones
Luiz Cane: Suspended indefinitely pending X-ray and orthopedic clearance of left thumb
Eliot Marshall: Suspended indefinitely pending CT head scan, minimum 30-day suspension for TKO loss
Edson Barboza: Suspended indefinitely pending X-ray of right hand and right knee
Ian Loveland: Suspended indefinitely pending MRI and orthopedic clearance of right ankle


How strange to see
Dan Henderson and Jason Miller in the UFC stands making nice with new Strikeforce owners Zuffa. Good to see Dana and Dan bridging the gap.
