What is reallllllllllly going on here? I know the beginning stages on how once Rashad got injured and Jones went in to bat. And that they both verbally agreed that they would NEVER fight each other. Then, Jones wins and Rashad says you can never say never?? I thought these two guys liked each other, but the more that I'm reading its looking like two different things. Of course, this may all be hype like some fighters do to get ratings/publicity but still. Then, I read on one of the mma websites, that Jones doesn't need surgery since it was a pre existing condition from college and now Rashad has a new match. Is Jones really avoiding Evans? Comments please

I don't know, I mean, Rashad has a point: Jones and Rashad were scheduled to fight, but then Jones needs surgery. Rashad gets a new opponent, and now Jones is healed?! Something's not adding up....

Evans doesn't get any luck, first Shogun's injured and now Jones. I can't see Jones ducking anybody , there's some powers-that-be tomfoolery going on though.

I don't think Jones is ducking, but I'm sick of this nonsense

Whatever is going on here, I hope the actual fight, should it ever happen, is more entertaining than Rampage-Evans.

I think jones is worried about fighting rashad and wanted some footage on him that wasnt more than a year old.  Could be wrong but thats what my brain is leaning towards.  Jones is not scared but rightfully apprehensive.

This whole thing is getting annoying now.  They're both going to lose fans if this drama crap keeps up.  Jones needs knew mgmnt... he is starting to look like a tool through his agents and what not.

The entire thing is absurd. Fighting like 8th graders over who-said-what nonsense.

Agreed with Geez/Kallous. Since jones will be ready by end of summer, I would have them fight and get this crap over with! Give Phil the Janitor & find another fight for Gus.

Yeah.. lets all hit twitter and spam Dana.  The whole reason the fight was called off was surgery and now he doesn't need it.. C'mon!
