News Jones Doesn't Care if He Gets Stripped, Will Continue to Monetize "Amazing Brand", Dana Shoulda Told Y'all (I'm not fighting)

[Captain Herb]

One X/Twitter user wrote to Jones on Sunday (18 May), “enjoying your last days as champ before being stripped [of your title] i see eh jon?”, to which the American replied: “Stripped? Lol do I come across as the type of person who cares about things like that ?”

Another user replied: “Yes otherwise you’d have vacated the belt a long time ago because you don’t plan to fight Tom.” Jones then hit back again, writing: “Yall barkin up the wrong tree, I told the Ufc my plans a long time ago. I have no clue why they haven’t shared them with you guys yet.”

When one fan asked, “What exactly are your plans?”, Jones responded: “To continue to monetize on this amazing brand that I’ve created.” Another pressed, “So are you fighting again or not? You are the current champion of the division,” with Jones replying: “Not a bad idea.”

The former two-time light-heavyweight champion also fired back at a fan who urged Jones to “shut the f*** up and fight”, writing: “This, this attitude, right here is making me a very wealthy man. This desperation is incredibly lucrative, so thank you. Keep it coming.”--https://www.aol.com/news/jon-jones-accuses-ufc-withholding-083343861.html

Jones has never shown any intention of fighting Aspinall. UFC keeps the belt on him thinking they can convince him but it isn't happening.

legit the biggest ducking case in MMA history.. let alone in the UFC

 

[sonhow]

He maybe ducking he maybe trolling

Only God and maybe Jones knows

 

[loisestrad]

Jones is toying with you guys, there's no way around that. He's basically a troll atm.

But unlike you guys and me, guys - he's earning money while doing so.

We expected no less from the scumbag Jon "Legacy" Jones.

In Jon's own words, babymama too bloody to speak, on Dana's HOF induction night...

with Jones replying...

Aspinall Gane incoming for Jones' belt

AOL news is still around? What is the the 90s

 

[Darkavius]

Can someone help me out here? What amazing brand is Jon talking about? Does he have a line of products or services?

Yea it's obvious Jones doesn't seem interested in fighting Aspinall. But I don't think we'll hear anything until the end of August, or September. That will be when Jones breaks the record for "longest heavyweight title reign" with a whopping 1 title defense in 2.5 years.

Once he's broken that record, I think the UFC will announce Aspinall vs Gane for the vacant title.

But my god, if Dana breaks down and gets greedy for PPVs, he could let Jones defend vs Pereira, and then we have 12 more months of Jon Jones ducking.

I've literally been saying it since day fucking 1 and yet there's so many dumbasses on here who are fully convinced he's been ready to sign to fight Tom.

Jon is a narcissist but he's a very predictable narcissist. But apparently not predictable enough for a fellow narcissist like Dana to see the writing on the wall.

 

[xhaydenx]

Been saying this for years, but he had no intention of fighting after the Stipe fight.

All this talk he does is just to keep his brand going so he can make more money charging for seminars and other appearances. He'll be doing this for as many years as he can.

Dana knows all this too. He's just stringing everyone along as well because Jon is still part of the UFC brand.

First post on these forums in 12 years. Just came to remark on what an arrogant coward Jones is. It's not hard to read between the lines. His legacy is at stake and Aspinall has evolved to Fedor levels of ability. The longer Jones can avoid this fight, the longer his living legend status persists. We know better, Jon. I just hope you make it a good fight when the day arrives. Or just fall to the canvas in the first 2 minutes. Either way, your days are numbered.

I’m really hoping the Aspinall fight is this year.
If not, he’s the biggest duck in history

Must be the Jon Jones brander!

Welcome back! Now you've dipped your pinkie toe back in and you're here to stay.

I think it might be worse. I think his intentions are to fight Alex Pereira, even if it's not a champ-champ fight. And what's worse is that fight would probably sell over 1 million PPVs, and Dana loves money...

We could well end up with "the fight the fans want to see" followed by ANOTHER 12 months of Jones trolling + ducking in 2026.
