Israel Adesanya responded on Wednesday night to Jon Jones calling him his “pu–y” earlier in the day.
Jones tweeted a video early Wednesday of Adesanya’s coach explaining why he has no interest in the Style Bender facing Jones. In response to Adesanya’s camp ducking him, Jones said “I formally release DC as being my pu–y, Izzy now takes the throne” (tweet censored by LBS).
Jones was in a longtime feud with Daniel Cormier (“DC”), but that’s over now that Cormier is thinking about retirement. Instead, Jones is taking aim at Adesanya.
Adesanya responded with sarcasm, saying Jones could be “such a pervert sometimes.”
Oh @JonnyBones …

In case you’re wondering about the quote Adesanya cited, it comes from the infamous leaked Jones Snapchat video from 2014.
Adesanya, what a savage. The Style Bender is 18-0 in his pro MMA career and a rising star in the UFC.
