    I love watching Jon Jones fight. He is massively talented. I just wish he would try a little harder to be humble. One of the key tenants of martial arts is self-discipline and he seems to have a hard time adhering to that. Here he is breaking one of MMA's sacred, unwritten rules--what happens in the gym stays there.

    I kind of doubt it is protocol to blab about sparring.

    To me it seems like a) Evans is under Jones' skin and b) Jones is still a bit immature. Getting a little gossipy now and the less we hear from him until the fight the better.

    For the record, Evans went on Twitter to call Jones a fake and a swagger jacker. He's not exactly taking the high road, either.

    I've got no problem with Jones going out with this. And he looks much more cleaned up than Jones in that suit. Darker tie, as well. But yeah, same style.

    Rashad is the bitch who fired the first shot and got his feelings all butt hurt. I don't think he is under Jones' skin. Rashad seems mentally weak, IMO...he tries so hard to be cool. I think something like this in the media could definitely get under his skin. Jones isn't stupid. I'm sure he knows how to irritate Rashad.
