Jon Jones: “The difference between me and Rashad is Rashad is not a martial artist by any means.”

Though he may have in the beginning, these days UFC light heavyweight champ Jon Jones doesn’t respect Rashad Evans. Jones and Evans have been on a long, winding road to the Philips Arena where they will meet in a week at UFC 145, going back-and-forth in heated interviews. Neither one seems to have positive feelings towards the other and that’s especially evident on the side of “Bones.” “The difference between me and Rashad is Rashad is not a martial artist by any means,” said Jones, in a recent interview with Sportsnet.ca. “I think it’s funny when he does commercials in a meditation scene – he’s sitting there pretending to meditate. He doesn’t meditate. He’s a guy who grabs his crotch at people. He was actually talking while Lyoto Machida knocked him out. That’s not a martial artist to me. I don’t respect that guy.” Jones worked with Evans at Greg Jackson’s gym in New Mexico, but when Jones won the UFC light heavyweight title and agreed to face Evans, “Suga” left the camp. The two have been bitter enemies ever since, including an altercation between them in a Las Vegas club and several exchanges through media. PHOTO CREDIT – UFC

Quinton Jackson: “I never claimed to be a martial artist…I’m a street fighter.”

Fan-favorite light heavyweight Quinton Jackson may compete as a professional Mixed Martial Artist but the 33-year old UFC star is quick to distance himself from the label based on his mental approach to the sport. While his peers continually look for competitive advantages by studying countless hours of tape and refining their abilities in every available discipline, Jackson prefers to maintain the same approach he has since his younger years in Memphis. “I never claimed to be a martial artist or a guy who is good at everything. I’m a street fighter,” said Jackson in an interview with the UFC promoting his bout this weekend at UFC 144 against Ryan Bader. “There’s a lot of things I don’t care about – I don’t care to know what my opponent is doing, I don’t care to know his skills and stuff like that – cause I’m a brawler. In a street fight you walk up to the guy and you start fighting. You’ve got no tape on this guy.” “I could give a rat’s ass if I can beat Ryan Bader or not,” said the former PRIDE/UFC champion. “I just want to put on the best show the world has ever seen.” Jackson Says He’s Faced Better Wrestlers than All-American Bader Jackson-Bader will serve as co-headliners on a card featuring six other scraps including a main event between lightweight title-holder Frankie Edgar and top contender Benson Henderson. Things start on PPV at 10:00 PM EST this Saturday with preliminary pairings airing on Facebook/FX in the preceding hours. Check out the full interview with “Rampage” below: PHOTO CREDIT – UFC Tweet
