Jones stripped of the belt and suspended.
Cormier Vs Johnson for the vacant belt!!!

crazy stuff mate. wasn't sure if the UFC had the balls to strip their main man of the gold.
decent match-up in replacing Jones with DC...think JJ sits out his suspension (possible Jail time??) gets a shot at whoever is holding the strap and gets it straight back.
Or a possible move to HW on his return??

Have to say i'm a bit shocked that the UFC stipped him of the title, but I think it's the right desicion.
They will also know that there is big money to be made in a Jon Jones comeback a year down the road.

I think DC is actually a tougher match up for Rumble than Jones
shocked at this news, some lads cant handle money and fame, I thought Johnny Bones was but hes obviously struggling
Is Jones the greatest of all time now then? Or does he still have a way to go?

certainly damaged it, but he can still be the greatest if/when his comeback happens and how he acts going forward.
In other news Khabib is injured and Cerrone is looking for a new opponent.
in less than a week both the fights ive been looking forward to for months have been bent over and bumfecked off the card!!!

Yeah I know what you're saying mate for sure.
The fact he never lost the belt by being defeated will help in some respects. If he had been juicing or something like that then I'd agree 100% with what you're saying.
People who watch and follow these types of sport don't really care about out of the cage/ring incidents.
Look at boxing, Floyd has beat women and been to prison but still has a massive following & his past is very rarely mentioned in public.
I certainly agree that it has damaged it a lot...Im guessing the consecutive title defences record cant continue because his first fight back wouldn't be a defence...but could it carry on afterwards seeing as though he never lost? Consecutive title match victories could continue if his first fight back was for the belt?
I dunno the answer to your last question...after trying his hardest to be the most liked person on earth for the first few years...he has kinda gone loco...drugs, parties and now hit & runs.
I'd love to be in his position, with his talent....as would millions and millions of people...I hope he can get it together and carry on his legacy because he is really that good.
Maybe he'll move straight to HW upon his return? He could still become a 2 weight world champion, and could still finish his career "undefeated-ish" as the Hammil DQ doesn't really count. He has still beaten more former champions than anyone else?
So I think us fickle fans will forget this out of cage stuff and concentrate purley on his in cage accomplishments and ability.
