Former Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) light heavyweight champion Jon “Bones” Jones is now making his return to the mixed martial arts promotion. For his return, the fighter will be taking on rival and reigning champion Daniel Cormier at UFC 214. The two will face off inside the Honda Center in Anaheim, California on July 29.
Jon Jones initially faced off against Daniel Cormier at UFC 182 in 2015. Jones earned a unanimous decision victory over his opponent, making for Cormier’s only loss in his mixed martial arts career.
Now with the two fighters getting so close to their next meeting inside the octagon, the trash talk between the two has been excitedly escalating. In the most recent exchange, Jon Jones took to Twitter to leave Daniel Cormier with a short message.
