UFC 165′s Jon Jones talks about issues with ‘not relevant to me’ Daniel Cormier

LOS ANGELES – At UFC 165, UFC light heavyweight champ Jon Jones is scheduled to fight Alexander Gustafsson , after which he may or may not try his hand in the heavyweight division. 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.” Jones then paused, obviously irked by the question. “He’s trying to get his Twitter followers up,” the 26-year-old champ said. “That’s about it.” It’s hard to pinpoint exactly where the conflict between the fighters arose, but Cormier (12-0 MMA, 1-0 UFC) has been vocal about a fight against Jones (18-1 MMA, 12-1 UFC), who’s been dismissive of the possibility. But that hasn’t kept Jones from taking shots at Cormier on Twitter. In May, he tweeted, “Someone ask DC when his diet starts #Wolftickets,” which prompted Cormier to offer an on-the-spot fight at 220 pounds. Today as part of the UFC’s current “World Tour” at Club Nokia at L.A.
