MMA News and Notes

Jacare is a very decorated bjj practitioner, probably top 3 most talented bjj practitioners currently active in mma. i'd say top 5 ever. the thing is, few bjj experts cross over to mma and have success at the highest level. of the most successful at the highest level i'd say jacare is up there. he has a great chance at being champ. he's a former strikeforce champ

off the top of my head, top current bjj fighters that come to mind are roger gracie, fabricio werdum, Robert drysdale, Damien maia. all in the ufc with roger being a former ufc fighter

I wish marcelo Garcia would've continued to pursue an mma career but he only fought once and lost. gave it up apparently after that.

I think currently Damian Mia is one of the best. You can't get that guy off you lol

Ya me to but who do you think will win the battle between connor mcgreggor and jose aldo?

The consensus around these parts is most think Aldo is going to win, but it seems most people want McGreggor to win it. One Aldo fan even said he wouldn't mind a loss ... Jose as been champ so long now, you can't really get better when fighting guys worse than you. It was an interesting take on it.

Looking forward to Maldonado vs rampage. If Maldonado gets out of the 1st round he might take it. Either way these guys will be throwing bombs.

Jon Jones involved in a hit and run? Sounds like it.
At first people were saying that Jones was in an accident and was out of his next fight. Then they said that he was in an accident, but the fight was still on. Now it looks like he pulled a hit and run. I'm just going to guess that he was intoxicated...

Thats ridiculous (if true). I have zero respect for people who drive while intoxicated. They should strip his title (if true).

I agree. Especially for repeat offenders (already crashed his Bentley while faded). Word has it that he sent a pregnant woman to the hospital. He may be looking at jail time.

Looks like Jones crashed and fled on foot, but he left documents in the rental with his name on them as well as his weed pipe. He was ID'd by an off duty officer.

Jones just can't stay out of his own way.

Haha true.
This is a guy who was proud that he ratted on kids for smoking ganja in high school. Now he's cheating on his wife (allegedly), crashing cars, hit and runs, cocaine, weed... how much does he idolize Tyson? I'm just waiting to hear some rape allegations.

Classy guy.....It appears that Rampage walked out on Bellator while under contract in order to fight for UFC.If true I'm sure they will sue him but can they also sue UFC for using their contracted fighter?
