Jon Jones had some choice words in response to a Tom Aspinall interview, to say the least. Aspinall recorded a cheeky interview with SPORTbible, in which he couldn’t help but take a jab at Jones when the question of who is “the champion of fight dodging?” was lobbed up for him. The two have been involved in a heated public rivalry for the better part of the last year, with Aspinall (the UFC’s interim heavyweight champion) accusing Jones of avoiding a fight with him and instead choosing to defend his heavyweight title against the comparatively inactive Stipe Miocic.

Francis Ngannou and UFC CEO Dana White played the blame game over the past week as they disagreed about why a fight between Ngannou and Jon Jones never happened.

Don’t hop the fence, UFC fighters … or Nevada will come for a portion of your paycheck.
Mayra Bueno Silva’s decision to scale the fence and speak to Dana White immediately following the stoppage in her UFC 303 bout has cost her.
On Thursday, the Nevada Athletic Commission fined Bueno Silva $2,500, plus $157.04 in prosecution fees, for leaping the cage after her June 29 bout at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas ended in a doctor’s stoppage.
The commission said Bueno Silva “against previous instruction exited the octagon by jumping over the fence.”
The fine is the second time this year a UFC contender has received such a fine. Diego Lopes was hit with the same $2,500 punishment after he jumped the cage at UFC 300 in April.
