Jones sends words of encouragement to Evans

[Wild]

Despite being former arch rivals, Jon Jones went out of his way to uplift Rashad Evans following his devastating KO loss to Glover Teixeira at UFC on Fox 19.

UFC on FOX 19 was probably one of the lowest points of Rashad Evan's career. The former light heavyweight champion, who captured promotional gold in 2008 at UFC 92, was knocked out by Glover Teixeira in the first two minutes of the opening round

It marked his second straight loss and the second KO loss of his career ("Suga" was knocked out and dethroned by Lyoto Machida at UFC 98).

The Blackzilian fighter admitted to feeling dejected in the post-fight press conference and said he wasn't sure where his career was headed. That's when former rival and teammate, Jon Jones, offered Evans some words encouragement on Instagram.

Rashad could stay in the race if he takes a pit stop and gets his front bumper swapped out.

If jon actually cared, he would have given Rashad a call. This public twitter and instagram bullshit is just him being fake, still. We see through the act, Jon. Give it up. It didn't work in the past and it isn't working now.

"Get some fans."

yea needs to swap out that broken down chin for a titanium one

 

[Papi Chingon]

Hey rashad, you get a call from jon? No
You get a text from Jon? No
Well you might want to check instagram because he really cares.

It's worked for RDA.

 

[WoodenPupa]

Shoulda called Suga from the driver's seat of his concept car while drag racing and filmed the conversation.

Probably doesn't have his number any more because there was a mutual bitterness

I know, these 2 parted ways long ago......oh yeah, here's my new number though we don't like each other.......

Yes, unfortunately Jon is not tied to the mma scene, so he has no way of procuring the phone number. If only he was connected like Rampage. Then and only then could he call him up and talk about dragons.

Sad but true. I wish Jones would just be genuine in every thing he does. It is far too late though. Rashad is classy. Jones is not.

 

[ChaosOverkill]

I break up with women over Instagram with picture of my hog going into their replacements.

What's the problem?

 

[Jonny Quest]

The only way to really encourage Rashad is to dig in that ass or skip to his Lou. Whatever comes first.

 

[BanMe]

It's something. Jon didn't have to do that. I'll give him the benefit of the doubt and say that was a nice gesture

Jones could have flown to Florida a week before his own fight to console Rashad and people would still find a way to criticize him lol

 

[Robbie Hart]

All Jones haters please expose yourselves........

 

[Robbie Hart]

All of the Jones haters are hiding like good little boys and girls, aren't they?

 

[SickEye]

Lol even when Jones is a good guy he gets shat on

What the fuck did I miss? Why do you have a pink name lol?

 

[Robbie Hart]

What the fuck did I miss? Why do you have a pink name lol?

Are you a Jones hater?

"It don't matter that some fool say he different 'cause the things that make you different is what you really do";

Jones is way better sending his condolences in public via social media than making an awkward call to someone he's had a feud with.

it's much better to do stuff (just like he did now) than say you're gonna do it (like he did before).

 

[Atto]

I want to make myself clear here.. I was Jon Jones fan and now i am his hater . He can't get more fake then this..
Mr nice guy lmaooo
