Why Jon Jones Guarantees Trilogy Fight Vs. Daniel Cormier Won’t Happen (via NESN)
Jon Jones has a message for those hoping he’ll someday fight Daniel Cormier for a third time: Don’t get your hopes up.
Jones took to Twitter on Monday night — less than a week before Cormier is scheduled to defend his heavyweight title against Stipe Miocic at UFC 241 — to explain why he believes he’ll never have a trilogy fight with his longtime rival. Basically, Jones, the current UFC light heavyweight champion, has no interest in moving up to heavyweight and doesn’t think Cormier would be able to cut down to 205 pounds at this stage of his mixed martial arts career.
I’ve been the light heavyweight champion for almost my entire MMA career, never have I moved up to challenge a heavyweight champion. I’m simply not interested in it right now, never seriously have been.I feel like the move is inevitable but as of right now, Im dominating fights and making weight just fine. Daniels and I not reverie, but beef started at the light heavyweight division and that’s where it should end.
