Appearing on ‘The Fighter and The Kid’ podcast, former champion Chuck Liddell said he believed he could still give Jon Jones problems in a fight.
It appears Jon Jones has had enough of UFC Hall of Famer Chuck Liddell’s criticism. Liddell has fired shots at fellow former light heavyweight champion Jones throughout his run at the top of the sport, most recently appearing on the Fighter and the Kid podcast and stating that he could still give Jones a run for his money in the UFC’s famed octagon.
After saying that, in his prime, he would have eventually caught Jones (21-1 MMA, 15-1 UFC), the long retired Liddell added, I will hit him. I’ll put my hands on him. I could still give him trouble.
It didn’t take long for the news to make it to Jones, who responded on Twitter:
