Just to level with you a bit - I really think Tom sealed his fate of never fighting Jon when he aligned himself with that MMA Guru fellow who made the whole Jones is gay thing go viral.
And not only that - Jon is going to honeydick him right 'til the bitter end out of spite, Tom is firmly on the shelf in his prime and Jon's gonna make sure he loses as much of his prime as possible before the UFC finally forces his hand and makes him vacate.
Jones has not been interested in the fight since day 1. I called the very same thing with Francis Ngannou.
