With just two days to go until the biggest event in the history of the UFC, one would think that the UFC would have a difficult time finding someone to fight on such short notice.
That proved to not be the case however when several fighters took to Twitter to campaign to fill the hole left in the card by Jon Jones Wednesday evening after he was pulled from the card for a potential anti-doping violation.
2 months, 2 weeks, 2 days…… Hmmm middle vs light heavy???? I stand by my words. I'd do it!
