It seems Jon Jones has an issue with Israel Adesanya.
The two have been linked together throughout the UFC 236 fight week after Adesanya admitted he had Jones in his targets for an epic encounter later on in his career. Evidently, Jones has an issue with the middleweight’s comments.
After Adesanya defeated Kelvin Gastelum in one of the best 185-pound encounters of all time, Jones took to his social media to cast a bit of shade towards the younger man, somewhat mocking the win.
Well said, my man had a toe to toe kick boxing match with a short stubby wrestler. There’s only one Jon Jones ladies and gentlemen https://t.co/uLl2yo7DZU
