Officials with the Ultimate Fighting Championship were quick to post the new poster for UFC 152 featuring UFC light heavyweight champ Jon Jones and former title holder Lyoto Machida, with the expectation that ‘The Dragon’ would be facing ‘Bones’ on September 22.
Apparently they were a little too quick on the draw as Machida turned down the fight, feeling there wasn’t enough time to prepare, so the UFC turned to ‘The Phenom’ Vitor Belfort as the man to fight Jones at UFC 152.
I think officials will wait a little longer before releasing that poster just in case ‘The Phenom’ has to back out.
