Chael Sonnen believes that the UFC was exposed by Jon Jones when he revealed that they contacted him to headline UFC 300. Jones, who is currently recovering from injuries, stated that he turned down an offer to headline the event with only nine weeks’ notice. Sonnen, who previously fought Jones and lost, sees this public revelation as another mistake on Jones’ part. According to Sonnen, Jones’ claim raises questions about the UFC’s decision-making and reflects poorly on the organization.
Sonnen questions the truthfulness of Jones’ statement about being offered the main event at UFC 300. He points to Daniel Cormier’s criticism of Jones as a bad employee to illustrate that Jones’ claim damages the company’s reputation. Sonnen suggests that if Jones fabricated the story, it was a clever ploy to generate attention. However, Sonnen believes that Jones did receive a phone call, which led to him unintentionally exposing the organization’s lack of a main event for UFC 300.
