I'm not doubting he wants to pay more, but this bullshit drama, asking the UFC to release him and all that is definitely suspicious and I seriously doubt he'd be doing it had Stipe UD Ngannou againHe didn’t .....He claimed he wanted to get paid more right from the start ....you either trolling or an idiot
It's true his last few fights at LHW weren't great.
Despite that, I think Jones vs Ngannou would draw tons of viewers. First, there's the curiosity of how Jones would look at HW. Second, Jones is usually a lock to win, but here he'd be the underdog. Finally, I think tons of people would tune in hoping to see Jon get KOed badly.
He ask for a pay hike before he gave up the LHw belt .....sorry if it doesn’t fit your agendaI'm not doubting he wants to pay more, but this bullshit drama, asking the UFC to release him and all that is definitely suspicious and I seriously doubt he'd be doing it had Stipe UD Ngannou again
No one knows exactly how much money Jon Jones is demanding to fight Francis Ngannou, but his coach is throwing out a nice juicy suggestion of $50 million.
Hes been talking about it for years even before clearing out the division multiple times.Yeah I'd say LHW was cleared out about the time he started facing Anthony Smith...doesn't change the fact that he waited until after Francis won to start drama, even though him facing the winner has been the plan for months and months
Tune ups gain him nothing stature wise while being all risk. Especially at this point.Yep 20-25 mil is very reasonable. 50 mil is like retirement/sunset money for getting KTFO'ed by Ngannou.
I don't get why Jones just doesn't do some tune up fights at HW. Why does he instantly need to fight for the belt? This whole thing is huge pressure.
