Jon Jones is next scheduled to defend his light heavyweight title against Anthony Johnson, but former contender Chael Sonnen believes the fight will never happen:
Chael Sonnen was on Reddit for one of their ‘Ask Me Anything’ sessions, and the former two-division UFC title challenger fielded dozens of questions from fans. Interestingly enough, he had the same answer on two separate questions about the upcoming light heavyweight title between Jon Jones and Anthony Johnson at UFC 187.
Here’s how the conversation went:
Fan: Will Jon Jones lose to Rumble?
Sonnen: JJ/AJ won’t happen.
A few questions down later, he was asked the same thing:
Fan: Hey Chael big fan! What do you think about Jones vs Johnson?
Sonnen: Won’t happen. Mark my words.
