Jon Jones‘ win over Daniel Cormier for the light heavyweight championship at UFC 214 was capped off with an interesting mic drop moment.
Before leaving the octagon, strap in hand, Jones called out former UFC heavyweight champ Brock Lesnar saying, “if you want to know what it feels like to get your ass kicked by a guy who weighs 40 pounds less than you, meet me in the Octagon”.

Currently Lesnar is entrenched in the WWE as that company’s Universal Champion and under contract though WrestleMania next April. Additionally The Beast is also currently suspended by the USADA coming after his fight against Mark Hunt so any potential clash between Lesnar and Jones surely won’t happen until next year at the earliest.
Lesnar responded to Jones’ challenge saying “careful what you wish for”.
Make it happen Dana White!
