Jon Jones Is FREE to Fight Francis Right Now - Everything Tyron Woodley Got Wrong - And Ronda did 12M on Netflix. A 60-year-old did 120M. Uh oh!
You're Welcome! With Chael SonnenShow Notes
Tyron Woodley appointed himself the lawyer, the agent, and the dealmaker — and got it wrong on every count. Jon Jones doesn't need a carve-out or a legal miracle. He can fight Francis Ngannou anywhere, right now. The UFC's "we have you" is a 100% bluff — and nobody noticed Francis isn't even signed to MVP.
Ronda Rousey vs. Gina Carano did 12 million on Netflix. A 60-year-old Jake Paul opponent did 10 times that. Is that good? Plus — Gina's coach says she's gutted. Here's the four-step formula for how that comeback story has to be told.
Dricus Du Plessis calls Khamzat Chimaev cowardly — but Chimaev never made that excuse. And Georges St-Pierre tells Conor McGregor to get uncomfortable in camp with two months until Max Holloway. Does training camp skill development even exist? Chael has never seen it in 41 years.
