1 how do you get injured a week out you shouldn't be training that hard 2 Now i don't blame dana for scratching the whole card it really screws over a lot of other fighters 3 Jon jones and greg jackson turns down sonnen fight claiming it's not safe. when jon jones was training for hendo. 4 i don't know why people duck chael he has 12 loses and creates great hype which creates great money and jones has stated he fights for money. I remember when fighters were fighters. What are your thoughts on sonnen, jackson, jones, and dana's comments?

Crap!! I just read it on sherdog. I was rooting for Hendo.
Chael Sonnen would have been interesting, I don't like him one bit as a person but he sure can fight.
I'm very surprised they canceled the whole show, since they already invested in advertisement.
Jackson is a strategist, so I guess I understand why they turned down the fight.
I agree with you though, I remember when fighters were fighters, if memory serves right, Josh Kosheck (who I don't like much because of his arrogance) has accepted a couple of last minute fights.

i was rooting for hendo too. and yeah im surprised they cancelled the show maybe it'll teach dana to not rely on 1 fight to carry a whole event. and i absolutely hate kosheck but i have a lot of respect for him because if he can make weight he will fill in anytime

I've never really been a Chael fan. But after today he is one of my favorite guys. I mean, here is a guy who usually fights at 185. He accepted a fight with a guy who is a whole lot bigger than him, had a full training camp, is considered the #2 p4p guy in the world, all on only 8 days notice. How do you not respect the man after that?

He might be a troll, but Chael has balls.
