God drat I don`t remember anyone linking Chael`s podcast recently, he`s discussing the Jones arrest with FrontRowBrian: http://podcastone.com/chaelsonnen

I`m about 20 minutes in and Chael is talking about just how much money had to have been in the car for Jones to return to the crime scene

What no one has mentioned yet is Silva broke Maia's eye socket early in the fight, so in addition to being called racial slurs for 25 minutes, he also couldn't see. It was garbage to watch but is sort of funny to remember.

I don't believe that, unless his drug habit is even worse than we know. I believe Jon Jones not doing any training between fights but there's no way Jones wasn't training for Rumble less than 4 weeks out.

The way Chael said it: The lawyer for Jones made a statement to the effect that Jones was getting ready to start training for his May fight. Not believing that he hadn`t started, Chael made some calls to people who would have known and confirmed that he hadn`t started camp. 32:50 on the podcast.

They'll never let him out of his contract. I'm sure in their talks they mentioned how this was for good publicity and that he needs to show some humility during the process. They all know his comeback in six months or eight months will do gangbusters and he'll not really miss out.

Essentially, the fact that the test was taken at all was a mistake, because cocaine isn't part of the normal out-of-competition testing list. Whether or not they were obliged to disclose it once it was mistakenly taken would be a question of law; I think it was divulged as the result of an FOI request from a journalist.

It was pretty gross but chuck knows how to hide most of his freak flag. The worst moments were him insisting there's a gene that makes black people more violent (joe did a verbal double take but didnt follow up), a lot of misogynistic weirdness and a part where the two of them were laughing about a boardroom of all white starbucks admins talking about black people.....after a 45 minute long discussion about black people.

Honestly in the "wow you really hate some people for dumb reasons" race to the bottom I thought his last one with adam corrola was worse.

This is quickly becoming a hosed up Venn diagram of Weird Twitter and MMA. Why does Joe Rogan, co-host of The Man Show, care what Ginger Balls thinks about black people pulling themselves up by their own bootstraps

Maybe he's genuinely curious about people with weird opinions and wants to discuss a variety of topics with an eclectic group of people on his podcast? In this case, he probably didn't realize how much of a hateful nut this guy was until it was too late.

He says he brought him on because he was one of the first people who was in on the unraveling of the UVA rape story. Unaware that this is due to Chuck sending out amatuer research teams anytime a rape is mentioned in print to figure out which feminist organization conspired to fake it.

Supposedly it is in Brazilian Portuguese. There were some news stories after UFC112 that said it's a racially charged and insulting way to address a rich white guy, so it made a lot of Brazilians uncomfortable. Apparently it caused such a controversy that Maia and Silva had to go on some big Brazilian TV talk show to publicly make up. Here's a Portuguese-language news article you can run through google translate or whatever.

Brazil was the largest importer of slaves during the slave trade and it's shadow looms large; so calling someone a playboy refers to those who don't work for their money, which brings up a ~certain other class~ of people who didn't work for their money.

My bjj coach from a while back recounted how his father was an attorney and had his life and family threatened over some contract corruption - my coach just sort of shook his head not just in anger but a sort of bitter acceptance that this is the way things are there. Every Brazilian I've met that's immigrated here can't stop talking about how much they love Brazil but none of them seem to ever want to live there again.
