Rampage: Jones can watch me train, he still won’t stop me

Jackson said he wasn’t accusing of Jones or his camp of intentionally sending a spy into his camp, but that it seemed clear someone was sending them information nonetheless. Jones and Kawa have denied any allegations of wrongdoing, though both declined invitations to appear on The MMA Hour to give their sides of the story.
Given the high-profile nature of the fight, the “Spygate” issue isn’t likely to subside anytime soon, even though Jackson seems ready to turn the page, even saying he was “kind of flattered” that such lengths are being taken.
“At the end of the day, I don’t care,” he said. “I’m very confident in this fight. You guys have no idea. A lot of people have counted me out in this fight, and I love it. I’m happy. It’s like when I fought Chuck Liddell to get the title. No one counted me in. I’m OK with it. Jon Jones can set up camp and watch me train, for all I care because he won’t be able to stop what I’m going to do to him.”
While Jackson’s camp is private, he has brought in a group of fighters to help him prepare, and he believes it’s possible one of them could have ties to Jones’ team. He said when each sparring partner arrives, he asks them not to release any information about the camp in any way, including social media platforms, a requirement he said he feels he has the right to ask since he is paying them.
