TORONTO -- Despite a bumpy road of late, UFC light-heavyweight champion Jon (Bones) Jones says he is back in his comfort zone ahead of his UFC 152 title defence Saturday against Vitor (The Phenom) Belfort. Manning Womens Jersey . "Im home," the 25-year-old Jones told reporters after an open workout Wednesday at the Xtreme Couture gym. "MMA, its my livelihood, its my sanctuary. "And even though this gym isnt my gym, I feel as if Im in a sanctuary. Fighting and moving my body and breaking a sweat, thats what makes me feel alive. Im just grateful to be here. Im grateful that theres people here that care and Im going to entertain them." He will do so against a beefed-up Belfort, who volunteered to move up a weight class and fight Jones (16-1) when other light-heavyweights backed off. Belfort will be giving up 10 years and four inches in height to the six-foot-four Jones. "I love challenges," the Brazilian said cheerfully. "Ive been part of this sport for 17 years. I came from the era of Dan Severn, Mark Coleman. Its a joy, its just a blessing to still be around." A bearded Jones was wearing a Nike Bones Knows T-shirt. But the son of a New York state pastor acknowledged that he is the first to admit he does not have all the answers. "Let alone figuring out what life is like being a champion, figuring out what life is like being a 25-year-old father growing up under a microscope, its tough man, it really is," he said. "But if I were to sit here and make my life sound as if I had the hardest life, it would be a shame. Theres people out there who live way harder lives than I do. So Im not going to complain. "Im just extremely grateful to be where Im and Im going to continue to try to do my best and I hope that the fans bear with me because its not always going to be perfect." In recent months, Jones has endured a drunk-driving charge and a very public spat with UFC president Dana White over his opponent at UFC 151 after Dan Henderson withdrew from through injury. Jones (16-1) refused to fight middleweight contender Chael Sonnen on short notice, prompting an enraged White to cancel UFC 151 and unload on Jones. White and Jones are slated to meet here for the first time since the messy disagreement. "Im excited about the meeting," Jones said. "Me and Dana are investors in the same sport. Us not being on the same page makes no sense for anyone." Still he said he stood behind his decisions and while he was bothered by the dispute, "forgiveness is an important thing." The main event Saturday is phenom versus phenom Belfort was only 19 when he won the UFCs first ever heavyweight tournament at UFC 12 in February 1997. He went on to win the light-heavyweight title. Jones became the UFCs youngest champion when, at the age of 23 years 242 days, he dethroned Maurio (Shogun) Rua at UFC 128 in February 2011. Jones had beaten three former champions since in Quinton (Rampage) Jackson, Lyoto (The Dragon) Machida and Rashad Evans. Only Evans went the distance. While oddsmakers have made Jones an 8-1 or 9-1 favourite, the champion says he faces "another amazing opponent" in Belfort. "Vitor is phenomenal," Jones said. "I fought a lot of intimidating guys. More and more Im learning to just be comfortable fighting guys who are simply intimidating. "Hes fast, hes powerful, hes physically muscular. Im just becoming more and more comfortable fighting beasts." Jones had fun during his open workout, going over to shake hands with a couple of Belfort fans only to playfully pull his hand back at the final second. A Brazilian TV personality then repaid the favour. While he said he was feeling the effects of his weight cut, Jones seemed in good spirits despite the headlines he has been making away from the cage. "I just think people go through a lot tougher situations. LeBron (James) left Cleveland and had a whole state passionately hate him. "What Im going through is very small when it comes to the grand scheme of real-life controversy. Theres people out there who are starving, theres just a lot of serious things going on in the world. So at the end of the day, all my drama, its all based around a game, its really just a sport. Its MMA drama, its not real-life ... so I can deal with people hating me or loving me. Its what it is. "Ultimately my job is to entertain people ... I guess keeping everything in perspective helps me deal with things. Realizing that my world is not that serious. Its a game. Were all here just to watch a sport be played. Its not life or death." Belfort was equally philosophical -- "Ive got peace in the process, enjoying the journey. So Im a winner." -- and upbeat. Asked about having a short camp to get ready for Jones, he said sometimes you cant be prepared. "You cannot be prepared to being a father. Youre a father," he said. "Im ready, man," he added.

"Releasing Scott was not an easy decision but I need to do what I think is best for the future of the Edmonton Rush," said Rush head coach and general manager Derek Keenan.EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- The Houston Texans rolled through the first four weeks of the season, looking every bit like the class of the AFC. Theyve also put the rest of the league on notice with their smothering defence and balanced, high-scoring offence. The New York Jets? Well, thats another story. Rex Ryans banged-up bunch has struggled to score, lost its two best players to season-ending injuries, is coming off a 34-0 thrashing by San Francisco and have a potential quarterback controversy brewing with Mark Sanchez and Tim Tebow. So, with the Texans (4-0) heading to MetLife Stadium to play the befuddling Jets (2-2) on Monday night, it would appear to be a big-time mismatch. "Were going to fight like were the underdog," a defiant Ryan said. "Were going to swing, thats for sure. Were not going to just take it, I can tell you that much." And, the Texans dont expect an easy night -- especially since theyre 0-5 against the Jets, including 0-3 on the road. "Theyre a dang good team, theyre in first place in their division," Texans coach Gary Kubiak said of the AFC East-leading Jets. "They had a rough week last week. Everybody in this business goes through something like that. I expect them to bounce back and play very well. Thats what Im telling my team -- theyre going to bounce back and play well. "The key is, how are we going to play? Are we going to continue to play the way were playing and do the things it takes to win? Thats why we stay focused on ourselves all the time." That approach has suited the Texans just fine. They are already off to their best start, and are looking for their second five-game winning streak in franchise history. "So, the Houston Texans, watching this group right here, it looks like they have a lot of weaknesses on their team," Ryan quipped. "Yeah, Ryan slams Texans. Thatll be the headlines. That will be good." Ryan ran down a lengthy list of things that make the Texans an elite team, something everyone around the league is finding out for themselves. Houston leads the NFL in scoring defence, yards allowed and third-down efficiency, and leads the AFC in passing defence. The Texans also have not given up a lead this season, and have trailed for a combined 18 minutes, 52 seconds through four games. "People are going to judge you by what they see," defensive end J.J. Watt said of playing on Monday Night Football. "This is really the nations first chance to see what were about. Im excited about that. Im excited to show everybody what Ive been working on, what our teams been working on and its a chance for the Houston Texans to step up on a national stage." Watt has been the leader of the leagues top-ranked defence, registering 7 1/2 sacks and being selected the AFC defensive player of the month for September. Throw in linebackers Brooks Reed, Brian Cushing and Bradie James, defensive end Antonio Smith and a secondary that includes Johnathan Joseph and the Jets offence could be in for a long night. Peyton Manning Womens Jersey. New York ranks 28th overall and its run-first approach has been mostly grounded this season, with the Jets averaging just 3.2 yards a carry. That has affected the passing game, of course, and Sanchez is off to a miserable start with a 69.6 quarterback rating. Hes also without Santonio Holmes, whos out for the season with a foot injury. It all doesnt do much to quell the ever-growing number of fans and media who want to see more of Tebow on offence -- and maybe even supplant Sanchez as the starter. So far, Tebow has been on the field for just 31 of the Jets 257 offensive snaps, hardly the spark Ryan told everyone hed be. "Whatever they ask you to do," Tebow said, "I just try and do it with all my heart." Sanchez and Tebow have done their best to not add any fuel to the fire, complimenting each other all the time and insisting that theyre friends with a great relationship on and off the field. Still, Sanchez knows the criticism of him continues to grow. "I really dont worry about it," Sanchez said. The Texans do have to be concerned about both quarterbacks because they know this could be the week in which Tebow could play a significant role. "If we do our job and we play our assignments and we execute, it doesnt matter what we face," Watt said. "Thats what makes our defence successful. Everybody knows what theyre supposed to do, and we execute. Obviously, you put Tebow in the game and you do a little bit more with the run and they run some wildcat plays, if we run and tackle, well be fine." Especially when you have an offence like the Texans do, with Arian Foster already carrying the ball 103 times for 380 yards and four touchdowns. Backup Ben Tate also has 117 yards rushing and two touchdowns, and that production sets up an impressive passing game with Matt Schaub. Tight end Owen Daniels has 19 catches and wide receiver Andre Johnson has 16, giving Schaub two reliable targets. The offence also wont have to deal with facing star cornerback Darrelle Revis, who was lost for the year two weeks ago with a torn knee ligament. "I dont know about (being) easier," Schaub said. "Hes a great player, hes one of the best in the business at what he does. But their scheme is really tough to beat, with the multiple looks and multiple fronts and coverages they play." Still, its rare to see a Ryan-led defence ranked 21st in the league, especially when there were high hopes at the start of the season. But, its only Week 5, Ryan says, and a win against the Texans could turn things around -- on offence and defence -- in a hurry. "Its going to be a huge challenge for us," Ryan said. "We have to find a way to keep scrapping and see what happens." ' ' '
