Overview
- New clips from ALF Global’s reality series published Friday show Jon Jones saying there is no rivalry with Daniel Cormier because Jones beat him twice and ranking Cormier as only his third-toughest opponent behind Alexander Gustafsson and Dominick Reyes.
- Daniel Cormier immediately pushed back on camera, miming injections to accuse Jones of steroid use and saying the placement was “crazy.”
- The taunt targets a key dispute in their history, since Jones’ 2017 stoppage win over Cormier was later changed to a no contest after a positive test for a turinabol metabolite.
- Another segment shows Cormier accusing Jones of being gay after Jones made sexual gestures, which Jones brushed off by laughing and continuing the bit.
- The rivalry’s latest round is unfolding on a Russian-produced MMA reality show filmed in Thailand that pairs the retired champions as opposing coaches, with short video clips now driving fresh media coverage and debate about legacy and fairness.
