As it turns out, Jones could be exonerated and soon. "Well, it's coming back now that it looks like he did not take the supplement that everybody thought he took," UFC President Dana White told radio host Jim Rome on his show on Tuesday. "We'll see how this thing plays out."
"I don't even know if this is public. I didn't know if I can talk about it," White said. "Normally, I talk about anything, but when it comes to medical stuff, you can't do it. It's looking like Jon Jones did not take the drug everybody thought he took. It looks like it's something else.
"I'll let this thing play out and if that's true and that's what USADA and the Nevada State Athletic Commission say happened, it could look good for Jon Jones."
It was either orchestrated or they hired the writer's from WWE to create more drama than you need to create.
What's going to happen at the weigh in tomorrow?
Wow. When these idiots act like this it makes you wonder how far the numbers must be down for them to have to generate negative publicity to get attention.
Nothing orchestrated about that other than Conor trying to turn the tables on Nate. After blowing off the 200 presser, then being late for eventual media presser at 200 and now being late for this by 40 minutes. It was a great attempt to get at Nate, unfortunately for Conor Nate was able take back control.
There's a lot of stuff out right now talking about how much Nate is in Conor's head and there's been a drastic change in Conor. I thought he did well by disrespecting Nate by being so late but he didn't expect that and he was forced to trying and one up him
Conor is the type of guy that if you take off your shirt he'll take off his, you grab a flag he'll grab a flag.
This was nothing more put posturing and so far Conor looks the least in control, should be interesting how the weigh ins go and if Conor can find his swagger as he values winning a fight before the fight so much.

LAS VEGAS — The UFC and MGM are taking measures to prevent another chaotic incident.
The entourages of Conor McGregor and Nate Diaz have been banned from UFC 202 after the bottle-throwing mess from Wednesday's pre-fight press conference, UFC officials confirmed with MMA Fighting on Thursday.
The only people that can be with McGregor and Diaz during UFC media events the rest of the week are their licensed corners, per UFC senior vice president of public relations Dave Sholler. Usually only two or three people are licensed corner people per fighter.
Much better game plan for Conor so far this time, but the tide turned at the end of that round. This fight will be over soon, MacGregor just doesn't have the stamina to match Diaz, and Diaz' chin is just too good.
