Thank your Steven Marrocco for the awesome interview.

Although he doesn’t want to talk about it, he already has a problem with someone in that class: Daniel Cormier.
Asked what he thought of Cormier’s recent request to cut the line for a shot at the light-heavy title if successful against Roy Nelson, Jones said: “DC is a guy who really wants to be famous. I don’t think he wants to work hard. I think he just wants to be famous. You can see it in his physique; you can see it in his card.”
“I hate answering questions about him,” Jones said. “He’s just not relevant to me. There’s so many great fighters in the light-heavyweight division. He’s not even top five in his division. I’m not sure if he is.
“He has, like, 20,000 Twitter followers. He has short reach, bad cardio (and) he looked terrible in his last fight. It’s like, I’m not worried about him at all.”
