What's happening, guys? Happy Friday. And thank you for joining. Another special episode of

your welcome. Coming up on today's show, John Jones appears to have three choices,

vacate, be stripped, or defend the title.

I'm going to tell you which I think he's going to do, and I'm going to start with that right now.

We're told by Tom Aspinall that he has a fight, that he can't say who it is, but he can say who it's not, and that it's not John Jones.

Now, this isn't an official announcement made by the UFC, and generally if the UFC got to the

spot with John Jones, the spot, we're in the office, they know we're not going to make the fight,

we're not even trying anymore, they move on, and in this case, they would go to surreal. And that's supposed to be like the big dark secret, that if it's not Jones versus Tom, then it's Tom versus who. The

answer is surreal. But whether that's supposed to remain a secret or not, Tom is revealing for us

that that that's the step that we're at. He didn't say the name surreal, but he said we're moving on

absence of Joan. If the office was to that point, I don't believe that the office would keep that quiet.

I believe the office would have first come out publicly and said, John had demands that were crazy.

We met those demands.

He then refused the fight. I believe they would come out and say that,

and they would let it simmer for just a minute, and they would see if public opinion and pressure

could sway John into doing a contest that he otherwise wouldn't have. That, I believe, is how they would do it.

After they did that and after they simmered,

you're going to have three options.

Option number one, vacate.

Now, they can force John to vacate. It's a way where you call a guy and you let him know,

you're going to be fired, but you give him a breather so he can turn in his resignation. This is a big deal

to some fighters. Daniel Cormier was about to be stripped by Dana White.
