Jon Jones just needed one thing to motivate him more, and now he has it.
Jon Jones vs. Stipe Miocic
Jon Jones is set to defend his UFC Heavyweight Championship against Stipe Miocic in Madison Square Garden, Saturday, November 16. But, ahead of the big matchup, UFC released a countdown to UFC 309, highlighting their fight.
During the countdown show, Stipe was shown reacting to Jon Jones winning the Heavyweight gold against Ciryl Gane. Stipe said “bring it on, bitch. Bring it on, bitch.” Now, after watching it back, Jon Jones has responded. He first took to Instagram to live react via his Instagram story, of Stipe calling him a bitch.
See, the disrespect, you calling me a bitch, Stipe. The disrespect didn’t have to happen. You’re going to wish you didn’t say that.
Jon then took it further and sent out a tweet to voice his displeasure about the words from Miocic.
Hiring black fighters to mimic me will not help you Stipe. And you shouldn’t have called me a bitch, the disrespect wasn’t necessary. Let’s play.
Jon has been known to get into it with opponents in the past, and things can turn dark if Jones feels disrespected. Now, it seems Jones’ motivation is turned up another notch.
