In an interview with the Toronto Sun ahead of his bout with Vitor Belfort in the city later this month, Jones went on the offensive, and left it clear that he's got unfinished business with Henderson once he's done with Belfort.

"I haven't said that anywhere, but you can be the first to put that out,” Jones said in regards to wanting Henderson after Belfort. “There's some unfinished business, for sure. I don't think Henderson handled the situation wisely, by making fun of me for not taking the fight (against Sonnen). Dude, you just dodged a bullet and you're talking trash to me? You got injured and you're going to talk trash that I didn't fight Chael?"

But Jones wasn't done there. Indeed, he took things further in addressing the things that Henderson has said in the wake of last month's turn of events.

"He came out with this ad that said, 'Buy a Hendo shirt and get a free Jon Jones shirt to dry your car off with.' You're making fun of me, yet you got hurt and dodged a bullet?" an incredulous Jones asked. "You're sitting at home with ice on your knee and I'm here doing pushups again because I thought my camp should have been over. I have stuff to do and you're sitting around your home playing video games, or whatever you do during the day."

"Training camps suck, bro. Training camps suck. The fight is the fun part. So I've got to suffer all over again, do a training camp all over again, and you're at home, laying down, having somebody feed you soup and you're going to make fun of me because you got hurt?"

"You should shut up and be grateful you dodged a bullet."

Of course, regardless of his responses, it seems Jones can't win with some fans, and he expressed some of that frustration in fan response further.

"There are a lot of people who still love and respect me, but right now it's kind of cool to hate me," Jones said. "I do something and it's the worst thing in the world. Then when someone else does it, it's almost OK. Chael says all this crazy stuff, but then I say something slight and it's like, 'Oh, that was the cockiest thing I've ever heard.' Dan Henderson called me a kid 1,000 times leading up to that fight and we never even fought. I call him an old man once and the whole world was like, 'You freakin’ age discriminator. You're such a bad person.'

"Wow. I can't get away with anything and everyone else does pretty much whatever they want... It just comes with being me, man, it just comes with the job. People hate guys who are good what they do. It happens with all dominant teams - people want to see them lose. They can't find anything to say about my game, so they attack [my] personality. You've got to bring down the guy on top, some way, some how. Even saying this, people will be like, 'What an arrogant b*stard.' Even though I'm just telling the truth."

I don't care what anyone says. Dana White is a homo. That pic looks like a classic "besties" pic. I can picture them on their bellies with their feet up sipping on diet peach iced tea discussing how hot Uriah Faber is

Real nikka attitude

I don't care what anyone says. Dana White is a homo.

despite bein married with kids there is really no way of tellin so not touchin that.But I do find it weird the way he constantly feels the need to demonstrate hes an alpha. This guy was a soft spoken pencil neck pondexter then sometime after TUF he became george steinbrenner? Going in on fighters for moves that are beneficial to their careers like they owe him. Dropping F bombs after every word like he lacks a vocabulary.Now hes realized how much fans are thirsty for ronda.So what does he do, rubs noses with her at every chance cheesing for cameras making all the sex starved tweens look like will and martin after broad gets kidnapped in badboys.The guy is just on a mission to paint this image he is not.I really wouldnt be surprised if the business with his mom was a hoax to add to his cred

 

[The Infamous]

props for this. nikka had his leg on a pendulum after all those inside leg kicks. Lucky blind punch for the equilizer tho and Manhoef goes from straight to

I don't call many KOs lucky, but this def. was. Lawler orginally was: then he went to

Daniel Cormier wants TUF showdown with UFC champion Jon Jones | UFC News | ESPN.co.uk

I don't like the long layoff from fighting when dealing with TUF, but this fight would be worth it.

Cormier is going to take that belt.

 

[Roman Brady]

Dont know why cornier is playing this stupid media game, talking out of the side of his mouth about facing jones.When he knows fuly well he cant cut to LHW or his kidney will give out

I thought this guy had that tegrity

 

[The Infamous]

It's looking like he wants to lose a good chunk of the weight permanently. At that point, the weight cut would be minimal.

 

[TheNatureBoy]

He's been so successful at HW, I would like to see him face some of the top UFC HW's. Unless he is super confident that Cain will beat JDS in the rematch.

He can lose the weight and make 205 just fine. He can still cut to 205. He just can't cut more than 20 pounds over the course of about a day.
