The UFC on Fox 2 press conference promised fireworks with three of the UFC’s most colorful trash talkers on the stage. Rashad Evans & Phil Davis got into a verbal war where Davis took a shot at Rashad’s chin and Rashad responded with a comment that may have crossed the line.

Going into the press conference most fans were probably expecting the notorious Chael Sonnen to dominate the proceedings.Or perhaps Michael Bisping who just wrapped up a many months long war of words and fists with Jason Miller at Saturday’s The Ultimate Fighter 2 Finale. But no, it was former light heavyweight champ Rashad Evans, who’s established quite the body of work as a trash talker, and his opponent Phil Davis who got ugly.
Davis probably started things when he responded to a fan’s question about Jon Jones saying Evans had a weak chin. It quickly escalated with both men claiming the other would be the first to shoot for a take down to avoid punching exchanges. Evans ended things by nuclear with a tasteless joke about Davis’ alma mater Penn State.
“I’ma put hands on you like dude did those kids at Penn State.”

Evans has had several notable feuds in his UFC career, including a very lucrative beef with Quinton Jackson that was featured on the highest rated ever season of The Ultimate Fighter. The two met at UFC 114 and sold over a million pay-per-view buys.
