Probably not the right thread but there is a major story involving an Irish MMA fighter doing the rounds in the Irish media about an alleged sexual assault at a Dublin hotel. He can't be named unless victim waives her right to annonimity but will be almost impossible to keep out of the ether.

didn't it just say major irish sports star, everyone else has run riot with the assumptions its a certain mma fighter but cant see that being what was reported
 
Jon Jones ‘fails’ drug test, NSAC want more time won’t let him fight, so the UFC move it to LA in less than a weeks notice!

Who says money doesn’t corrupt sports! That’s a disgrace to everyone, especially those who have bought tickets and hotels in Vegas. I’ve done the Vegas thing at this time of year and seen an Event, is have been gutted if it was all moved for something like this.

I hope Gus knocks him out cold, Jones shouldn’t be allowed to keep profiting from cheating.

While it's normal to feel this way generally mate, I think this one may be excusable?

"In an ensuing investigation of the Dec. 9 test results, USADA ruled the trace amount found in Jones's system is consistent with "residual amounts" of the initial 2017 test -- meaning the low amount does not suggest Jones re-administered a parent drug."

Depends where you read the information from though. This isn’t meant to be his first test since then, so surely it’s show up in others to. Also he was supposed to have had such a low dose last time.

I reckon this is why he wouldn’t do the advised voluntary testing as well Cos he’s potentially trying to cheat the system but apparently he’s not very good at it.

Who knows? Can't help but like him in the octagon though. He is a gun. I hope he smashes him.
 
I look forward to Dana chewing out the rest of the guys on the card should they complain

"Shut up GEEK. If you wanna cry about it then just don't show up and I'll put someone else in there!"

I'd somewhat understand it if Jones was actually a Conor level draw, but he really isn't

He was blatantly juicing for his last fight with DC. You could tell juat by looking at him. He lied after that so I'm sure it's more of the same.

USADA and all the medical experts haven't come to that conclusion mate. If he has, it will come out at some stage. Until then, why not go with the experts' conclusions and hopefully enjoy a great fight, and card, to end the year.
