Fight week is not a training week, because there are so many appearances etc, and a bunch of shit going on leading up to the fight, there's no time to train, let alone train for a top fighter in his respected class.

Dana White could have easily switched the main event, he's done it in the past.
What are you talking about? He was already training for a fight so how do you get 0 time to train? Chael is the one who would have 0 time to train. Yeah, Chael is a top fighter....at 185! Jones is a HUGE 205'er fighting a guy with 0 time to train, he should of taken the fight.

You are completely wrong about the main event. You don't just "Switch the main event". People bought tickets to see Jones, you don't just put anybody in there and act like it will make it all better. If I had tickets to that event and Jones got pulled and just some random fight was main event I would be MORE pissed, just give me a refund.
