I felt badly for Shogun Rua on Saturday night...he’s a skilled fighter and he’s got a ton of heart (kept coming forward for almost three rounds of abuse) but he did not have an answer for Jon Jones reach and ground and pound. Jones busted him up somthing awful.

Well we trained him for his first fights.
All I can say is he is a great athlete.

He is not ready for Silva yet but UFC may push it. Most likely they will make GSP move up
