Aside from Jon Jones and Rampage Jackson themselves, I can't think of anyone better to talk to about their UFC 135 matchup than "Suga" Rashad Evans. As a former friend and training partner of Jones, and a long time arch nemisis of Rampage, Evans offers a truly unique perspective on their fight. And of course, he's next in line for a title shot, and will face the winner either later this year, or early in 2012.

 

I spent about 6 minutes with Evans for an exclusive audio interview. It's attached to this blog. Just look to the right side of the page and click play just under the picture.

 

Rashad pulls no punches here, and fully admits that he does not like Jon Jones as a person. Despite his personal feelings about Jones, you may be surprised by the way Rashad expects Jones vs Rampage to end. 

 

Make sure to tune in to my MMA show, Fighter's Fury, this Sunday at 10am for a UFC 135 review right here on 790 The Ticket.
