    That's a damn accomplishment. Stripped of the real title and stripped of the interim title. Maybe next time he can show some humility and be nice to DC.

    This list of apologies from Jones is ridiculous. He tested positive for two, not one, TWO banned substances.

    I don't see it happening but he could be facing 2-year bans for each.

    “Nothing Jon is using from GAT contains anything that is banned,” GAT Nutrition vice president Mark Post said. “We do extensive third-party testing and we know he has been tested (with no positives for performance-enhancing drugs) several times. Everything has come up clear. We have no idea what has changed in what he has taken over the last month. We don’t live with Jon, and don’t even know what the banned substance is.”

    I'm glad they responsed. I suspect Jones has been juicing for years. Rumor is he hid under a cage at Jacksons a few years ago. A Reddit user who is familiar with PEDs pointed out around the OSP fight what appeared to be injection points on JJ, back during that time frame. I'll see if I can find the thread.

    I really have no desire to see JJ fight ever again.

    This photo is from the day of the test. Body language is universally known as the biggest communicator. Bones' body language reads as someone who is defeated, concerned, distracted.

    They all look serious, but their posture is all good. Jones is the only one slouching.

    Per USADA, Jones' b-sample has also tested positive.

    Rumors going around that Jones popped for estrogen blockers. This is common in people who recently get off a cycle to prevent the elevated testosterone from showing up.

    If I understood that properly.

    Do any supplements contain estrogen blockers?

    If not, he's clearly cheating.

    Taken from a poster on sherdog:

    If hes taking estrogen blockers, to me that shows intent. It shows it almost certainly isnt a tainted supplement. It is highly unlikely a supplement company is going to spike a supplement with estrogen blockers. He was intentionally taking these to mask roid use in my opinion.

    Chael reported this on Rogan's podcast today.

    I think USADA is going to blast his ass into space if this is true.

    He's looking at a 4 year suspension, right? JJ is fucked so bad if this is true.

    Has Nevada picked up these recommended sentences? I know California did.

    It's possible Nevada will play their own tune. The NSAC board is fucking retarded so odds are he'll be suspended like 9-months or something.

    Jones was set to be paid more than Lesnar for this event. He probably lost at least $3-4 million. OUCH.

    Chael tells the "Jon hiding under the cage" story. Classic.
