*HELP SANCTION MMA IN NEW YORK http://www.mmafacts.com



He crashed his rental car into a pregnant lady by (it sounds like) running a red light, ran away, came back, stuffed a bunch of cash into his pants, and then ran away again. The cops checked his glove compartment and they found weed and a pipe, along with the rental car papers with his name all over them. The charges were elevated to a felony because the pregnant lady was injured (broke her arm) when he ran away. Also an off duty police officer saw the whole thing and is a huge UFC fan so he positively identified Jon Jones running away from the scene.

You can't make this poo poo up. MMA is the best. Also we've got a ton of big fights this month (Hunt vs. Miocic, Edgar vs Faber, DC vs AJ, Weidman vs some idiot, Alves vs Condit). Get the gently caress in.

Also an excellent example.

I've been watching a loving ton of UFC the past week or so, Fightpass rules, May going to rule even harder, this is the most I've gotten into a new pastime in a long time, thank you for having me.

Jones is p4p the most entertaining fighter on the planet right now. Is he the best? Who cares, he's definitely the best value.
