Just to clear the record Ive never turned down an MMA fight against anyone and never will. This ill-considered post by Jon Jones was made at the time of the cancellation of UFC 151 - you know, the even cancelled because Jon Jones refused to fight Chael Sonnen (stepping in for Dan Henderson) on short notice on the advice of his coaching team. So, basically - it's a bald-faced lie. Greg Jackson even confirmed telling Jones not to take the fight. Sometimes, no matter how ugly it might be, the truth is a better option.
