Jon Jones continues to go back and forth with Israel Adesanya on social media, with his latest tactic being to bring up a knockout loss from Adesanya’s past.<\/p>\n
It seems as if MMA Twitter is 50% fight talk and 50% reactions to the ongoing rivalry between Jones and Adesanya. With “The Last Stylebender” coming off the back of his impressive win over Paulo Costa and Jones not having a fight booked, many believe that they’re destined to square off at some point in the not-so-distant future.<\/p>\n
Before they actually step foot inside the Octagon, however, Jones has gone deep into Adesanya’s past to remind him of his knockout defeat against Alex Pereira.<\/p>\n

While Adesanya has shared his hopes to fight top middleweight contender Jared Cannonier next, his coach Eugene Bareman has suggested a fight with Jon Jones could also happen in the near future.\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n
\u201cIf Cannonier didn\u2019t want to turn around and fight, then Israel would definitely fight at 205,\u201d Bareman said on\u00a0Submission Radio\u00a0<\/a>(h\/t\u00a0MMA Fighting)<\/a>. \u201cWe\u2019ve already had a little chat about that. He would be perfectly willing to do that. So much is just dependent on those results in the middleweight division.<\/p>\n
