- Throughout his saga with Chael Sonnen, UFC light heavyweight champion Jon Jones has been on his 36-year-old challenger's case about his use of testosterone replacement therapy.
Now the champ has finally just flat-out accused the Oregonian of steroid use.
On Tuesday night's edition of Fuel TV's UFC Tonight, co-host Dominick Cruz ask Jones about a recent quote in which Jones claimed Sonnen lacked the soul of a champion. That's when the champion dropped his bombshell.
"Chael Sonnen's a guy who, people know he's been on steroids throughout his whole career," Jones said. "That's probably why his testosterone level is low now. I don't think that's the heart and attitude of a champion. So that's what I meant when I said he lacks championship soul."
Sonnen has never tested positive for performance-enhancing drugs in a 40-fight MMA career which dates back to 1997. http://www.mmafighting.com/2013/4/17/4235304/jon-jones-says-chael-sonnen-has-been-on-steroids-throughout-his-whole | |

Jones is the worst shit-talker in the history of MMA. I don't worst like "most brutal" or "relentless", I mean worst like he's the worst at trying to do it. (Maybe Ken Shamrock is worse than him, but it's close)
Even when he says something that could very well be true and a lot of people may agree with like this, he just says it in such a stupid and simple way that it actually makes him look worse than the person he is talking about. | |

| And now he has already apologized for it. Not for being god-awful at talking shit, but for saying Chael uses steroids, though he should apologize for the former as well if you ask me.

I think it's more a case of Jones just trying to stir things up himself and just not doing a very good of selling it. Sonnen hasn't really done or said much at all, aside from the intermittent "Beat me if you can!" or whatever, but nothing really personal or overly outrageous. But Jones seems like he's trying to incite some friction on his own, but it's just not working. Like at the TUF Finale, when they were both being interviewed in between fights, and Jones was trying to look all broody and pissed off like it was all he could do to not stomp Chael's ass right then and there. But it's like dude, we just watched the whole TUF season, where you were all giggly and smiley with Chael like he just took you on a date, remember? Don't try to now act like he's your mortal enemy and you can't even stand to look at him. We're not stupid. | |
