My respect for JDS just went up even more.
Thankfully not much bashing on this thread.
Met Ed at a UFC.
Gave me and my date some Silver Star shirts.
Uncle Dana got in Junior's ear while he was filming TUF. Told him he'd be a much bigger star if he got away from Ed and better representation.
This is Dana getting Ed back for being a dick and picking matchups. Whenever something happens you have ask the MMA-cui-bono - does this benefit Dana?

Here's a couple of questions from the interview.
Were you surprised by his decision?
It wasn’t a complete surprise to me. To be pretty honest, for everything we see on the fighting world, it’s hard to get caught by surprise. It wasn’t an argument or anything like that. It was all ok. If the guy doesn’t want to work with us, how can I force him to do it? It won’t be a good relationship. The work we did together was successful. We did was we were supposed to do, he did his job on the octagon, and it took us to gather a great team to help him to get there. Let’s see what happens now. I hope it all works out just fine for him. I’m sad, I’d be lying if I told you otherwise, but I don’t wish people bad things.
Where do you see your relationship with him going?
I remember knowing Junior before representing him. I met him in England, he was lost in the airport. He came and talked to me because he has seen me on the TV show “Passando a Guarda”. He was there because he went to help Crocota. I called him, we were going to the same hotel, and then we started being friends. Then, after I saw him fighting back in Brazil, I remember him as a “kid”, of 21, 22 years. He’s always been a super nice person, good, but when you start to grow old, start being successful, sometimes your way of seeing things changes a but, which is normal, and not in a bad way. I’ll try to give you an example in Portuguese, that I don’t know if will express exactly what I want to say. I thought the glass was half full, but he thought it was half empty. None of us was lying. I still don’t know why it happened, but right now it doesn’t really matter. The choice was made, and I accepted it. God bless you.
I like JDS even more now!

Damnit, wrong thread. This is what I get for having 186 tabs open... And yes, 10'ers will indeed 10.

That's a lot of tabs!
Where are you Ed Soares??? I want to hear his side of things!
like ed or not he has helped many of the brazilian fighters become what they are today. without ed they would still be stuck in the favelas.
that a pretty serious camp change right before your 1st world title match
Ed is the most overrated manager ever. He manages two of the top p4p fighters and possible GOATS and they get no promotion and are less known than some midcard fighters. Time is short in MMA and fighters need an aggressive mananger who will push them and get them $$$ while they're on top. Anderson and Aldo are more impressive than GSP, Guida, Couture etc but are almost unknown to the general public.
Smart move for JDS imo.
Jack Skellington - that a pretty serious camp change right before your 1st world title matchyeah, something is up...
Was he already gone from blackhouse for the Carwin fight. If that's the case I wouldn't worry about it affecting him at all.
