UFC 151: Jones vs. Henderson - Winners and losers
Mookie Alexander takes a look at the real winners and losers from UFC 151: Jones vs. Henderson in Las Vegas, Nevada.
On August 23rd, 2012, the UFC made history by cancelling a pay-per-view event. UFC 151 was scheduled for September 1st in Las Vegas, headlined by a light heavyweight title fight between champion Jon Jones and Dan Henderson. That never materialized because Hendo pulled out with an injury. Chael Sonnen offered to fight Jones on a week's notice, but Jones rejected that offer Dikembe Mutombo-style. This sparked unprecedented levels of outrage towards Jones, primarily led by Dana White, who ripped into him during the conference call.
