Jon Jones refutes claims that he wants to fight Brock Lesnar
Earlier this week Jon Jones manager Malki Kawa made waves when he told MMA insider FrontRowBrian that he could see a “super fight happening” between his client (Jones) and Brock Lesnar if both fighters were to prove victorious at next weekend’s UFC 200 event in Las Vegas.
Jones recently addressed the rumor on Twitter stating that Kawa was simply attempting to “stir up drama”:
No my manager said that, he's just trying to stir up drama. As if we don't have enough 😒 https://t.co/IP7Ylh72RR
