Well, Jon ‘Bones’ Jones didn’t take kindly to Alexander Gustafsson’s words about how he didn’t think of Jones as a champion and how, also, he wasn’t a good person in Gustafsson’s mind…
Here’s 6 of the tweets that ensued from Jonny Jones’ Twitter account afterwards…
Enjoy!
I’m not a champion cuz I’m a bad person? 🤔 you’re not a champion because you don’t win championship fights. 💯

And here’s a little FYI, you didn’t lose against DC and I because of your cardio, it was because your lack of heart.

Of course you are rooting for Daniel Gus, you might as well pray for him while you’re at it.

Here’s what sparked that whole fiasco…
“I don’t like him,” Gustafsson says during the press conference. “I give him that he’s the best fighter of all time, the best pound-for-pound fighter in our division.”
“But as a person, as a champion, he’s not a champion in my eyes. He’s not a good person, in my eyes,” he said. “That’s why I always tell the guys that I hope ‘DC’ wins because he is a worthy champion and I like the guy.”
