It&#8217;s all about life and family when it comes to our talks.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Despite being booked to fight each other (to no avail) in the past, it&#8217;s clear that Anthony Johnson and Jon Jones are on good terms. That being said, their recent encounter once again got the world talking about what might have happened if they had ever shared the cage.<\/p>\n<p>From the sounds of it, it&#8217; still possible. Speaking on <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/yxYWjdXQzU0\">Ariel Helwani&#8217;s MMA Show<\/a> this week, Anthony Johnson divulged that he&#8217;d be willing to fight again for the right price \u2014 whether it&#8217;s against Jones or somebody else.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNo I cannot say that [I&#8217;ll never fight again],&#8221; Johnson said (transcript via <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sherdog.com\/news\/news\/Anthony-Johnson-Not-Ruling-Out-UFC-Return-For-The-Right-Price-142759\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Sherdog<\/a>). &#8220;Never say never. If the right opportunity comes along, I will jump on it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You know I am obviously not afraid to fight anybody. So if that happens and the price is right, you know sometimes people be cheap. So treat me right and I will definitely treat you right and go and give you the performance of a lifetime.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Do you think we&#8217;ll ever see Anthony Johnson back in the cage?
