White "Jones had nothing to gain from Sonnen bout"

"When you have a card that is only carried by one match, given the attrition rate in MMA, the injuries in training, they kind of set themselves up for the fall. They need to hold themselves accountable. It's become a bit of a habit, of late, by the leaders, to blame others for their problems, instead of letting people hold them accountable ... I think Jon Jones had nothing to gain in that fight. Sonnen, moving to a different weight division, having not fought there for quite a long time, and competing at 185, hasn't earned the right in the first place.I think Jon Jones was well within his rights, and I back Jackson on the decision that he made and the advice that he gave Jones to pull out of the fight. It doesn't do the UFC any good to chop the legs out from, possibly their biggest star because he doesn't take a last minute replacement fight. There was nothing to gain for his career. I think it's organizational suicide to do that to your biggest star."
