I have no regrets, I did my job and everybody who has followed my journey knows I did my job, Jon Jones &amp; Mike Winkeljohn just did me dirtier that I have ever even seen in this fight game. But good always prevails over evil and we have a home big enough for all of us. I will be opening TANK Mixed Martial Arts In the next 6 months and we are going to takeover the beautiful city of Albuquerque New Mexico! Karma is real. And Jon, it\u2019s on site with me &amp; you &amp; you know that. You stole from my family. You got me fired from my job for no reason and for that I am grateful bc I will never work for a crook like Mike Winkelloser again. I\u2019m 10X \u2018s the coach you\u2019ve ever been. You just bought out Greg\u2019s name and unfortunately JACKSONS was out in the control of a dirtbag. But fuck you all very much! The only@thing that comes to Ming when I hear your names are, cowardice &amp; deceit. It\u2019s on site JBJ. So keep that security close F&gt;<\/p>\n<p>It did not take long for the UFC\u2019s reigning light heavyweight champion Jon Jones to catch wind of the post.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Bones\u2019 responded to his former striking coach with the following.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Frank I gave you the opportunity of a lifetime. Everyone on the team knows that I would not agree to give you $20,000 for only your second training camp on my team. And if I did, I would have totally paid you that amount, not once and 10 years have I ever gotten a complaint about not paying staff members. If anything I\u2019m always complemented for being peoples highest paying client by a longshot. I won\u2019t even get in to the fact that you were fired from the team on fight week because of your drug issues. Anyways, I\u2019m not going to argue with you over the Internet. I would be more than happy to take this to a judge. It\u2019s the physical threatening that I have a problem with. I have no interest in carrying a concealed pistol or preparing for any type of street fight with you. Tomorrow I will be calling APD and bringing our confrontation to their awareness. Honestly I wish I would have never gotten to know you, but I truly do wish you nothing but the best. Please just leave me alone bro or see me in court.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>What do you think of the feud between Jon Jones and his former coach Frank Lester?
