Jon Jones is currently one of the best fighters in the history of the MMA world and has had 14 successful title defences and cemented his legacy as one of the best ever. Jon Jones’ interesting message to Fedor previously leaked as well.
Jon Jones has repeatedly talked about deserving better pay for fighting the likes of UFC Heavyweight Champion Francis Ngannou. The whole topic of UFC fighters deserving better pay has maintained steam throughout the months. However, it might have affected Jon Jones’ career in the UFC.
UFC veteran and legend Randy Couture recently spoke to Combat Sports on Fanatics View, where he talked about Jon Jones’ condition in the UFC. Randy Couture believes that he was ‘iced’ by the UFC for his comments towards better fighter pay and has been on the back burner ever since.
“I think you’re seeing a trend, aren’t you? The guys that chirp about the cost, the money, what they’re getting paid, are kind of getting put on the back shelf. They’re getting iced. That’s what they’re getting for speaking up and trying to demand some transparency and their fair share,” declared Randy Couture.
We wonder just when exactly Jon Jones will be able to have his next UFC fight.
