One of the worst parts of the falling out between EliteXC and K.J. Noons (plus his agent Mark 'dipshit' Dion) is Noons indifference towards any explanation. The man is becoming the Roger Clemens of MMA, back before Clemens spent all that money to 'clear' his name two months after being named in the Mitchell report.

K.J. Noons isn't even coming out and saying, "my contract sucks" or "my pay is a joke" or something that makes a shred of sense. By taking this fight, on live prime time television you have everything to gain. Noons can solidify himself as a legit lightweight, play the good guy to Diaz' villian and cash in on endorsement deals and publicity from possibly the last (or next to last) CBS show.

Not taking this fight leaves only one logical conclusion, cowardice. Sheer utter cowardice that can only be on par with Benedict Arnold treachery.

If this is an example of Mark Dion (the agent) influencing Noons away from this fight than this awful advice goes right up there with invading Iraq and benching Hope Solo in the Wrold Cup semifinals. All deserve immediate firing (no more fucking freedom medals!) and reprimands for sheer and utter incompetence.
