Later this Sunday, Jon Jones continued online on Twitter and took the opportunity to answer many questions that he would be afraid to face Francis Ngannou.

– I left the light heavyweight division, literally gained a lot of weight. And now people are saying that I am scared? Everyone but me, claiming I’m scared. Everything I asked for was to be paid.

At 33, Jon Jones dominated the light heavyweight (up to 93kg) for almost a decade, even in the midst of problems in his personal life and doping. His last fight was in February 2020, when he beat Dominick Reyes by unanimous decision at UFC 247. After that, he decided to get ready to move up to heavyweight and gave up his title.
