Chael Sonnen just gave Jon Jones fans a classic good news/bad news situation …
Good news? Jones is returning to the mat as part of Chael’s Submission Underground event next month … an all-grappling combat contest Jones is actually allowed to compete in, despite his yearlong drug suspension.
Bad news? Jon is up against his old UFC foe — and former Olympic wrestler — Dan Henderson … which according to Sonnen could mean Jones seriously gets embarrassed in the all-grappling format.
You gotta listen to Sonnen break it down … especially the way in which he explains how Jon is able to mix it up in the event despite his suspension … which we’re sure Dana White will be thrilled about.
