Jon sees a threat, Jon talks about a pie in the sky HW fight that he would never take to deflect

“Really not sure when I’ll be fighting next,” Jones wrote. “Feel like I have nothing to gain by beating Dominick. I’ve actually felt that way about my last two opponents. I want a super fight.

nothing to gain by fighting reyes? how about adding to your light heavyweight legacy by defending against the number one contender?

 

[TheJohnnyWalkerEra]

Defend or Vacate

 

[Ares Black]

Jones ducking Reyes confirmed.

[Mammothman]

Lol, wasn't he friend with Ngannou with the whole "Wakada forever" shit?

Also Reye would be his best win since DC without a doubt, I hope they fight soon

 

[blaseblah]

Either take the Reyes fight or accept a heavyweight fight with Ngannou who has been begging for a fight on Twitter. Either is acceptable.

 

[Post 2 Decision]

Walker and Reyes next after that Santos fight we saw. Maybe if Rakic wins 3 meanwhile he can be next after that. Then a move up or Izzy with a hypothetical 4 fight win streak. Then a safe retirement as the greatest PED fighter of all time

 

[Gigaton Punch]

Tbf, I don't think the UFC has even offered Reyes yet. Pretty sure they're waiting for Andedson/Walker and Jan/Jacare to play out before deciding. At the end of the day he will stay at LHW and defend the next guy. He will never go up to HW, it's just something to deflect

 

[MGS]

You'll do nothing

 

[wilKO]

So he's describes fighting Ngannou as inevitable. So is death.

 

[SmilinDesperado]

Yea, the trolling and honeydicking by Jones is getting annoying. Either do the HW fight, or shut up about it.
He keep saying he's comfortable at LHW and wants to cement his legacy there, and then he gets on Twitter to talk shit to the MW champ or fight at HW.
Choose a lane, FFS.

And Reyes is undefeated, so that's a weird thing for Jones to say

 

[SalvadorAllende]

LOL. Jones is not fighting Nguyo

 

[BoD 2.0]

If Jones is bored or complacent with defending his belt, then he should vacate it and move up to HW.

UFC should set up a fight between him and Francis, winner gets the title shot.

nothing to gain by fighting reyes? how about adding to your light heavyweight legacy by defending against the number one contender?

So now people want him to fight in his own division.

Funny how that works.

 

[kevinramsdell]

Yea because beating a huge LHW with an undefeated record who just KOd the UFC poster boy and former MW champ in 2 minutes isn’t a good win. But beating up on two MWs with multiple losses would be better lmaooo

 

[Lukn4trbl]

Beating a top, undefeated, #1 contender IS YOUR JOB, Jon!

 

[5thDimensionMMA]

He is tentetive to take fights now

 

[storeybuckle]

I’d love to see that fight. To be fair though it must be getting boring for Jones

 

[Ivancho]

too much suppositions, nothing concrete. Just move up
