Jon Jones has responded after his longtime rival Daniel Cormier suggested that “the first true loss” of his career is “very near”.<\/p>\n
During a recent Reddit ‘Ask Me Anything’ session with his ESPN<\/a> co-host Ryan Clark, ‘DC’ was questioned if he thought ‘Bones’ had a realistic chance of defeating either of the reigning UFC heavyweight champions in Ciryl Gane and Francis Ngannou<\/a>.<\/p>\n “I think Jon Jones has a chance against anybody (at Heavyweight). I think Ciryl Gane is a problem for him. I don’t know who it’s gonna be, but I think his time is coming. I am not confident that (Jones) wins his next fight.”<\/em><\/p>\n Daniel Cormier continued and suggested that the first true loss of Jon Jones career was very near.<\/p>\n “I initially suggested that he fight a Curtis Blaydes, but it’s too risky not to cash in on him in a title fight. The first true loss of his career is very near.”<\/em><\/p>\n Jon Jones responded to those comments from Daniel Cormier earlier this afternoon with the following reaction.<\/p>\n “When you get dudes whose ass I’ve already kicked, talking about Jon’s first loss is coming soon. I’m over here laughing my ass off.” –\u00a0<\/em>Jones wrote and later deleted from social media (see a screenshot of that below).<\/p>\n Jon Jones tweeted and deleted this earlier in response to Daniel Cormier suggesting that \u201cthe first true loss\u201d of his career is \u201cvery near\u201d #UFC<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/YFdFw6nauc<\/a><\/p>\n — Chris Taylor (@CTaylor_96) October 29, 2021<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n
