D.C.: Throwing an "after party" for Jones not wise

Underground
1

Cormier argues that because Jones is still suspended, he really shouldn't be in Buffalo this weekend at all. Even worse, he said the posters around town advertising an "after party" featuring Bones is a bad idea.

"What genius did that?," asks an incredulous Cormier in an interview with Ariel Helwani at UFC 210 media day. "What genius decided to give Jon Jones, a recovering alcoholic, an after party? Who does it? Great job, Malki (Kawa, Jones' agent). Awesome work, buddy. Jeez!"

"It doesn't bother me. I just think it's desperate. Very desperate."

Literally every pro athlete that has even the remotest form of noteriety does this. I remember a local sports convention thing in the cincy area from 2015 where Chris fucking sabo was charging $35 a pop for his autograph. Extra $$ for pictures

I met rampage about 16 years ago and asked for a photo. He said "you got $20". I stared at him for about 3 seconds before he started laughing. That was the first fighter I ever met. He was a nice guy. Probably second to randleman and Coleman. Met them at different events and they were definitely a couple of the nicest guys I have ever met. Offtrack I know, I have been drinking.

"he really shouldn't be in Buffalo at all"

Not defending the party animal, but just being real. Jones is from upstate NY. Buffalo is upstate NY. Should Jones just stay home that night? Let's give respect where it's due. Jones is the best fighter of our generation. If he doesn't show up, that would be a shame.

Cormier's just trying to sell the rematch.

He told Rogan on the JRE that he plans on drinking again so it shouldn't come as a surprise. I doubt if he ever really quit.

But A wealthy dude like tom Brady can charge hundreds for the same thing and it's okay.

Chris Sabo haven't heard that name in over 20 years now.

Maybe the after party is only stocked with pepsi?

16

Isn't a fighter under suspension not allowed to be anywhere near a pro fight scenario?

Wrong.  It's guys that are considered total douchebags in their sport, or totally fucking broke that do this kind of shit.  People like Pete Rose and Tom Barrasshole
