Dana White offers Jon Jones vs. Tyson Fury fight: ‘Let’s do it!’

UFC champ Jon Jones and boxing champion Tyson Fury are arguing over who’s the baddest man on the earth. UFC president Dana White is inviting to stop jabbering and accumulate out.
White doesn’t usually esteem going off script for UFC fights, however in the case of Tyson Fury, he’s inviting to provide an exception. Though he is currently focused on a heavyweight title defense for Jones at Madison Square Backyard in November, White addressed the contemporary scuttlebutt swirling around Jones and Fury’s verbal struggle over who’s the fictional baddest man on the earth.
The general squawking started after UFC commentator and standard podcaster Joe Rogan acknowledged on his podcast that Jones would handily defeat Fury in a struggle. And we’re no longer talking boxing right here. Rogan meant an honest struggle.
“I derive a extensive relationship with Tyson Fury, however there’s a debate correct now concerning the baddest man on the earth. Jon Jones is the baddest man on the earth. There is no doubt about it,” White declared at the UFC Vegas 74 post-struggle press conference.
“If two guys fought, in a struggle, who would derive? Whenever you esteem to wish to focus on about another likely baddest man on the earth, it’d be Tyson Fury in a boxing enviornment. Every person is conscious of that if Jon Jones boxed Tyson Fury, Tyson Fury wins. All these boxing guys wanna focus on about this and they wanna preserve it in the ring.”
But White doesn’t behold a strict boxing match proving who’s the baddest man on the earth. And in all honesty, even fighting below MMA principles doesn’t essentially camouflage the baddest man on the earth. Finally, when principles are fervent, it limits the fighting. In a valid, who might well well beat who on the aspect toll road, anything goes.
That, unnecessary to claim, isn’t going to occur. But White is inviting to get discontinuance to that by offering Fury a struggle with Jones in the Octagon. And he sounds entirely serious.
“I’m telling Tyson Fury, whom I admire very powerful, in case you with out a doubt wish to search out out who the baddest man on the earth is, I will produce that struggle. I will produce Jon Jones vs. Tyson Fury in the Octagon,” White persisted.
“We figured out how to pay Floyd (Mayweather when he boxed Conor McGregor). We’ll pick out how to pay you too, Tyson. The supply is in the market. Whenever you esteem to wish to provide it, in the UFC – I do know he become as soon as messing around with MMA for a while there – let’s produce it. You esteem to derive the title of the baddest man on the earth? Let’s produce it!”
