I have been a hardcore fan of the sport for 20 years since the TUF boom in 2005, and had watched on and off since 2003. This is not boxing, where undisputed champions and interim champions will go their entire careers without facing each other and unifying the titles - For the integrity of the sport, Jon Jones needs to be stripped of the title as soon as possible. He is purposely holding up a division, because he wants to be the longest reigning heavyweight champion by taking the easiest road and simply waiting it out...
The egotistical and disrespectful nature in which he conducts himself is almost hysterical in nature, not a befitting a real champion in the slightest. GSP had his title stripped from him the night he said he was going to walk away from the sport. Jones has said that several times, even before the Stipe fight, he was talking about retirement. So why is he not treated in the same manner, strip him and bring respect back to the sport. He's not the Superstar he used to be, he's made sure of that. I can only hope that the UFC chooses to make the right decision.
I've been a huge UFC fan since about 2006. I watch every PPV and tend to travel to 1-2 live events a year. At one time, Jon Jones was my favorite fighter. Hell, I had his shoes, even! This whole debacle is a stain to the sport. If Jon won't fight Tom he needs to be stripped. Dana cannot keep playing favorites like this. It's asinine. It's wasting Toms prime, it's unfair to other fighters, and quite frankly it's ruining the sport. Love the UFC, but this is an issue and perhaps we all need to boycott it they won't do something about it
