| UFC Quick Quote: James Toney plans to slap Jon Jones Posted: 31 Jul 2010 03:08 PM PDT
"Jon 'Homo' Jones better do his research before he talks shit about me. He doesn’t know anything about me. He's about to learn though because when I see Jon Jones, I’ma slap his ass. I don’t play those games. He better learn how to fight before he talks shit about me. Jones is the 2010 Rampage Jackson; both straight up yes men. Tell him to go drink an Ecstasy drink because I heard that’s what he likes to do; just another bitch ass New Yorker." -- Well, this just keeps getting uglier. Professional boxer and UFC newcomer James Toney calls out light heavyweight prospect Jon Jones in a recent interview with FightHype, resorting to juvenile name calling and hurling baseless allegations that likely won't make company president Dana White very happy. Toney is booked to battle Randy Couture at UFC 118 at the end of August, but he has called out just about everyone, including Brock Lesnar, who has been skeptical about his success inside the Octagon. Is Toney just doing his part to promote his fight or has he crossed the line? | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Latest UFC on Versus 2 odds and betting lines for 'Jones vs Matyushenko' on Aug. 1 Posted: 31 Jul 2010 12:09 PM PDT
Vladimir Matyushenko may be "The Janitor," but it's Jon Jones who's mopping up the fight lines. "Bones" is still sailing into his "UFC on Versus 2" main event fight tomorrow night (Aug. 1, 2010) against the Belarusian underdog as a -600 favorite. Vladdy meanwhile is limping in at +400 despite having a significant edge in experience. Yushin Okami has "Thundered" into his 185-pound war against Mark Munoz with a -210 fight line in tow. "The Philippine Underdog Machine" could make some money if he drops his purse on his own +165 odds. Anything is possible in this sport -- and those who lay down some cheddar on the underdogs in San Diego stand to make a healthy profit. Assuming you win, of course. Anyone thinking parlay? Take a look at the latest numbers and let's hear your play. Surprisingly, the lines haven't moved much at all since our initial post, but that could all change as the event continues to draw closer. Here are the latest UFC on Versus 2 odds (- = favorite; + = underdog):
Remember that MMAmania.com will provide LIVE round-by-round, blow-by-blow coverage of the main card action on fight night (Sunday, Aug. 1), which is slated to air at 9 p.m. ET on the Versus Network.

| Junior dos Santos: 'My intention is to keep the fight standing' against Roy Nelson at UFC 117 Posted: 31 Jul 2010 10:00 AM PDT
Props: Fighters Only Magazine Quoteworthy:
Brazilian powerhouse Junior dos Santos takes on Roy Nelson next Saturday night (Aug. 7, 2010) at UFC 117: "Silva vs. Sonnen," in a heavyweight clash that will likely determine the next division contender. Nelson, who's very skilled on the ground, and perhaps even better at keeping his opponents plastered on their backs, has indicated that he intends to throw leather. However, how long can he last with that gameplan? Or is he just better off seeing what "surprises" dos Santos has down south? | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Yushin Okami: Beating Mark Munoz puts me closer to a middleweight title shot (Video) Posted: 31 Jul 2010 07:35 AM PDT But do fans want to see him rematch "The Spider?" Or is Vitor Belfort next in line if Chael Sonnen falls on August 7? | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
