Even though he is still on the sidelines, former UFC Light Heavyweight Champion Jon Jones still manages to steal the headlines in the 205lbs division.
Current Champion Daniel Cormier is taking on Anthony Johnson in a rematch at #UFC206 and the pair have recently been promoting the bout. In a recent interview with Michael Landsberg on TSN, the pair commented on Jones situation which led to Jones taking to social media and sending a message to the pair;
Can't wait to get back and slap one of these light heavyweights, even on the sidelines I'm more relevant than anyone in that division.
