Jon Jones has a message for Israel Adesanya: “There’s no red panty night without me”
Former UFC light heavyweight king Jon Jones has sent a clear message to rival Israel Adesanya regarding a potential showdown between the two.
While both men may seem to be heading in different directions right now, it seems like just a matter of time before two of the Ultimate Fighting Championship’s true greats square off inside the Octagon.
When a fan challenged Jones on social media by asking whether or not the fight will happen, the former 205-pound champion didn’t mince his words.
Yeah just how he envisioned it, the arena he wanted and everything. 😂 There’s not a man on this planet that tells me what to do. I march to the beat of my own drum.. there’s no red panty night for Izzy without me, I may just keep him broke https://t.co/U2SVJ4x7a8

You’re joking right? I’ve been making millions since my early 20s, I don’t need a super fight with anyone. Fighting guys like Jan and Izzy does nothing for my legacy, winning the Heavyweight belt is the only thing that can bring me any higher than I already am #facts https://t.co/7ZBf2oc5TP

“You’re joking right?” Jones added when a fan asked if Adesanya was a bigger name. “I’ve been making millions since my early 20s, I don’t need a super fight with anyone. Fighting guys like Jan and Izzy does nothing for my legacy, winning the Heavyweight belt is the only thing that can bring me any higher than I already am”.
