UFC President Dana White hosted* a UFC 152 media teleconference Tuesday with headliners Jon Jones and Vitor Belfort, along with co-headliners Jospeh Benavidez and Demetrious Johnson.
Topics included, of course, the UFC 151 fiasco and Jones’ relationship with White, also, how Vitor got the title shot, Jones not being able to finish Rashad Evans in his last bout, Vitor training with the Blackzilians and ticket sales. Other topics included God and Christianity, and there a long expose by Vitor on Jesus.
*Dana White abruptly left the call pretty early on after defending Vitor’s worthiness to fight Jones (maybe just a coincidence). UFC Director of Canadian Operations Tom Wright took his place.
