UFC light heavyweight who Jon Jones ‘ran from’ reacts to rival retiring without fighting Tom Aspinall

Jon Jones is accused of 'taking everyone' in his last UFC chapter.

The former two-division UFC champion has the second longest title line in heavyweight history, largely because he did not retire immediately after his last defending defense against Stipe Miocic at UFC 309 in November.

Interim title holder Tom Aspinall waited almost 600 days to unite the title against Jones, only for the heavyweight champion to retire in June, allowing the belt to go remotely without fighting him.

There is a popular story that Jones Aspinall 'Dook', a story that we have previously heard about 'bones' in the light heavyweight division years ago.

Dominick Reyes commented on Jon Jones's retirement, says that in 2020 he was 'running' from him

Dominick Reyes challenged Jon Jones for the light heavyweight title on UFC 247 in 2020, almost the leash of the champion in a five -round fight many, including UFC CEO Dana White, thought Reyes had won.

But the jury members would not see it that Jones presented the unanimous decision victories and his first pro -loss Reyes.

Thinking that he won the fight, Reyes sought an immediate rematch with Jones, just like many fans; However, it may take three years free and moved to the heavyweight division.

Reyes was asked about Jones's pension on the poundcast of Pound 4 Pound.

“He just hits everyone and lies and tells this and says that,” said Reyes about Jones.

“He is self -satisfied, and then he is arrogant. And then he is not real, man. We just want a real answer from you, bro. Not a bullcrap, tap everyone, tell them, oh, maybe, maybe this …

“Are you going to fight or not?” Reyes went on.

“I think that's what everyone is angry about, he just tries to play with all of us, bro. When you're done, say you're done. If you're not done, say, let's go [or] I want more money or I want this and that's it.

“Don't say, we'll see …” A big announcement comes out, “and then it's nothing,” Reyes added.

“People forget that too. He ran from me because he said: you don't pay me enough to fight that guy. He is too dangerous …”

Jon Jones is currently in the drug test pool

Even if Jones returns, it can take a while before we see 'bones' in action again.

Jones has shown interest in competing on the planned UFC Witte Huis card of President Donald Trump next year on July 4, against those who currently own the heavyweight title.

Weeks after his retirement, Jones again entered the drug test pool, which he must be eligible to fight again.

At the moment it is uncertain whether the 38-year-old Jones will ever fight again. UFC CEO Dana White says that he cannot run the risk that Jones is an event with an event as great as the White House.
