Francis Ngannou Responds To Jon Jones
It’s not secret that the UFC wants to book heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou against former longtime light heavyweight champion Jon Jones.
However, due to claims from UFC President Dana White, the fight isn’t all that close to being booked due to Jon Jones ‘asking for $30 million’ for the super fight…but the negotiations haven’t stopped the pair from jarring back and forth on social media.
Jones claimed that Ngannou needs to motivate him for the fight to happen, a comment that didn’t sit too well with the baddest man on the planet.
I shouldn’t have to motivate you Jonny…if it’s not in you already you’ve already lost. I know my motivation — https://t.co/YzPZgimlWR
