Former UFC interim heavyweight title challenger Curtis Braides is set to face Rizvan Kuniev in the UFC of ABC: Hill vs. Rountree Jr.
“If you look at the availability of guys, there was no one else to fight. I haven’t fought since last July. I want to make money this year. I don’t think he should fight because he has a belt and not fighting. If he’s a real fan, he’s a little late, and casual is hyped for him.”
As Cortis Blaydes put it, the tide opposed John Jones’ favours, as John Jones fanatics agreed with the idea of stripping John Jones and lifting Tom Aspinoll to the uncontroversial champion in order to keep the division moving.
Curtis Braides is not alone in his criticism of John Jones.
Many others are seeking to strip John Jones of the title for many reasons. Continuing motions at heavyweights, and, if removed, leave MMA and UFC to glorious filming wrestling matches.
