What was DC’s response to Jon Jones request for commentary?
Jones’ most recent tweet was in response to Cormier’s statement that he needed clarification about Bones’ request to commentate at UFC 285. Cormier claimed he wasn’t sure how to interpret the assertion.
On his YouTube channel, Cormier stated, “You guys know how I feel about Jones and how we have felt about each other in the past. Yet it brings me to this: How do I interpret this? This tweet, which occasionally feels like a compliment but might be read as a slight, comes after I was accused of being prejudiced in my analysis and other things. So to be clear up front, I don’t need consent to call someone’s fight.”
