Dana White, Jon Jones, and Chael Sonnen chat: Alvarez, Bonnar, Diaz, much more

UFC president Dana White did a Metro PCS chat on Ustream tonight from the TUF house, and was joined by UFC light heavyweight champion and Ultimate Fighter 17 coach Jon Jones. Fans asked questions about everything under the sun, and both men answered honestly. Then in a weird twist, Dana left and the chat was hosted by Jones and his opposing coach, Chael Sonnen. And the two men were acting like best friends, both saying that the other is a "pretty good guy". They even had a flexing contest.

White then took over the questions and started lobbing hardballs at Chael, but he handled it well. The whole thing was pretty strange, but Chael managed to get a couple of funny digs in at Jones and a few other fighters.

You can catch the whole video here, if you'd like to watch it.

I'll break down the news that Dana broke first, then move onto the comments from each of the TUF 17 coaches.
