Jon Jones Mocks Cormier: I Failed For Coke & Still Beat You!

FotorCreated 4

After settling a plethora of legal issues that forced the UFC to strip him of his long-held title, former light heavyweight kingpin Jon “Bones” Jones is now gearing up to make his highly anticipated return against bitter rival and reigning champion Daniel Cormier at April 23’s UFC 197.

The two men originally met at January 2015’s UFC 182 with Jones then the champion. After an illustrious build up that featured relentless trash talk and clear bad blood, “Bones” walked away with a convincing decision victory.

Heading into the rematch, the rivalry between the two has not died down one bit.

Going back and forth on social media recently, Cormier published a meme last night (February 25, 2016), taking a shot at Jones’ troubled past with banned substances, specifically the fact that “Bones” failed an out of competition drug test for cocaine metabolites surrounding UFC 182.

While the champion seemed to have initiated the action, Jones may have got the final laugh, taking to his twitter to make it clear that he had taken out Cormier even after failing a drug test.

Jones has since deleted the tweet, but check out the picture below:
