Confirmation of Jones's phony attitude (Video)

[AndyK5]

When people asked me why I did not like Jon Jones as a person although I admire him as a fighter, I could not give them a solid reason. I kept on saying that I always felt like he was not being sincere with anything he says, that his interviews were fake and he was trying to exert a lot of control to stop his cocky attitude to seep thru.
Well finally this confirms at least some of my 6th instinct about him.

if your a dick your a dick if ya good ya good no need to play the middle. like em as a fighter but is obviously a dick person. btw he was just mad he got punched. lol

Oh shut the fuck up people. SMH. People keep grasping at straws to hate on this kid. This proves nothing other than the fact that Greg Jackson is the dick. Jones doesn't have to go check on his opponent. That doesn't make him a better or worse person. IMO I kinda feel like it's adding insult to injury. JACKSON is the one who pulled the phony move. Jones is a 24 year old kid. Jackson's his coach. I'm 29 and if my coach told me to go do that, i'd go do that because I respect my coach. Jones did nothing wrong. The real dick is Jackson. Stop it.

Get over your bias and accept that the kid is just a kid.

Yup Jones was just listening to his coach. Coach could have just said go check on him...
"win some fans" was not needed IMO.
Jon Jones is legit. Younster has game.

Jon also might not have been thinking straight "being punched in the face" its hard to come out of war mode in 5 mins. IMP I'am scan sure MMA guys can relate, thats what your corners for!

whatevers whatever dudes if i was in jones' shoes when greg was yelling for him he prob. would've got a doo doo face from me like what the fuck. He might of got pissed i might of got a talken to from the coach but jackson seem to worry about "the image" and not the moment. for jones to fall in line doesn't show respect it shows he's obediance ( sorry i type like an ape) Jones had a bit of a battle last night. and you could tell his happiness when he let machida drop. those eyes where cold as hell. he was pissed and didn't want to check on machida. and he didn't have to.

The mob is fickle and must be catered to. Jackson is not naive and knows this. Frank Mir's nonchalance about Nog's situation was comical as hell as well. Fighters know the stakes and shit happens. You gotta understand how its real easy to stop caring about someones immediate well being after he punches you in the face as hard as he can. And as a coach/mentor and friend you really dont care about anything but your guy comin out victorious and healthy.

First of all reading is always your friend. Nobody here is arguing that if he is legit, or can take a punch or whatever. This video is ONE of MANY things that are said and done by Jones and his management to hide his tru personality in order to make him look caring, down to earth and a peoples person. I have nothing against people with bad personalities. I respect Bisping or Lesnar way more than Jones. I think he should just let it go and be the cocky dick that he really is.

i agree!

Haha....you guys are being really ignorant about the whole thing.
His TRUE personality? Man, NONE of these guys show their TRUE
personality on TV. It's entertainment, that's the business.

You can't know his "true" personality unless you know him personally.

Is this your "true" personality when you post here? Or do you think
about what other people may interpret from what you say? Of course
you do. When the light is shown on you, you project an image, every
motherfucker on the planet does this, get over it. Not even to be flat
out rude...but honestly, this kind of thread makes me laugh my ass off
at someone believing that what they're watching isn't directly catered
to the viewer, whether it be from the fighter, the corner, or the production
company.
