UFC interim light heavyweight champion Jon Jones had a PED test flagged, and he was removed from UFC 200. Brock Lesnar vs. Mark Hunt became the new main event. This is the first time ever a non title fight was made a made event over a title fight.
Twitter reacted, hard.
@dc_mma you is the true champiom…

I guess he didn't take DC's "get your shit together" advice to heart. š #ufc200 https://t.co/6gWI79tAof

Daniel Cormier is the real champ. Let's end the storyline here and move on. #UFC200

2 months, 2 weeks, 2 days…… Hmmm middle vs light heavy???? I stand by my words. I'd do it!

For the record, I HATE losing Jones vs. Cormier at UFC 200. I still LOVE cleaning up the sport of MMA.

Feels kinda good knowing I could shit my pants in the cage, or trip walkin up the octagon steps & still not fuck up as bad as Jon Jones has

Joe Silva just landed and texted Dana White, "what the fuck happened??" Lorenzo Fertitta responded to him, "welcome to Las Vegas."

Gotta feel real bad for DC right now. He had a lot to prove with Jones. Needs to get a fight and that PPV cut to make him feel better.

Jon Jones: So talented, so smart, so deep, so flawed.

"USADA is all smoke and mirrors. Just lip service. Brock Lesnar exemption blah blah blah." Lol. #UFC200

@dc_mma @ufc, I feel for ya. I know it feels to have your opponent get pulled 3 days before the fight due to being dishonorable. #norespect
