Dan Henderson Gets The Last Laugh In Jon Jones Beef
BJPENN.COM News - January 9, 2015
“I enjoy the sport quite a bit and it’s fun for me to do. I love the challenge of it and everything else. Maybe it’s staying away from the cocaine that’s made me prolong my career so long. I’ve heard that [Jones] was doing these things for a couple years. I’ve said in a number of interviews especially when I was going to fight him that he just wasn’t a very genuine of a person. He portrays himself differently than he actually is. Slowly but surely more and more things happen that prove that statement to be true. With the DUI that he’s had and now testing positive for cocaine, he’s not acting as a good role model for kids and nobody the UFC would want as a role model for kids growing up that watch the UFC. It’s a shame, it’s unfortunate that he is that way but we’ll see what he does with it. It would be refreshing if he could come out and just act the way he actually is and I think people would actually embrace that more than being a fake.” In a recent interview with FOX Sports, MMA Legend Dan Henderson got to even the score against Jon Jones, who has taken a liking to calling “Hendo” old on more than one occasion.
