And the beef continues, Rashad Evans and Jon Jones have an altercation in nightclub

By Rob Billington
For those unaware, the UFC fighters summit is underway in Las Vegas, Nevada. If you don't know what it is let me explain, basically every Zuffa fighter (including Strikeforce guys) have to attend this event and get briefed on future plans etc. Having this many fighters in the same place at the same time is surely a bad idea, especially with all the rivalries we see in this sport.

The biggest rivalry currently ongoing is that between Rashad Evans and Jon Jones, who bumped into each other in a Las Vegas nightclub. The story came from the Las Vegas review journal:

"Vegas Confidential learned the incident took place near the table of UFC champ George St. Pierre at Surrender nightclub at Encore. Jones and former champ Tito Ortiz had a table next to St. Pierre's.

St. Pierre ordered Jones and Evans, former friends who trained together, to take it elsewhere before things got ugly.

Jones and Evans, who have been having words of late, walked away to hash out their differences."

The most bizarre thing about this story is that Tito Ortiz and Georges St. Pierre were sitting at a table together, talk about opposites attracting. Speaking of Tito Ortiz, he too was involved in a war of words at the fighter summit with none other than Matt "Meat head" Mitrione, check the video below to see what went down.


Really bad audio here, I cant make out jack shit. It does however, look like it begins to heat up.
