Jon Jones refuses  million from UFC for historic fight

A new controversy involving the North American Jon Jones once again shook the world of MMA. Considered by many to be one of the greatest fighters of all time, the former champion opened up on social media and revealed details of the frustrated negotiations with the UFC for a historic fight that would be held at the White House, in the United States.

According to Jones, the organization would have offered a scholarship of US$15 million, around R$80 million at the current price, for him to participate in the event. However, the fighter stated that he considered the value to be lower than expected and, therefore, chose not to accept the agreement.

In his post, Jones highlighted that he was ready to return to the octagon.


“I was ready, willing and physically able to step in. I was willing to accept a substantially lower amount than what Aspinall requested, but they didn’t give up a single penny above US$15 million. I felt that our fight was worth more”, said Jon Jones, in reference to a supposed fight with Brazilian Alex Poatan.

The frustrated negotiation is another chapter in the troubled relationship between Jones and the UFC. In recent interviews, the organization’s president, Dana White, even stated that there had not even been negotiations with the fighter, which further increased the exchange of public barbs between the parties.

Without an agreement with Jones, the UFC defined another path for the historic event. The main fight confirmed for the card at Casa Branca will be between Alex Poatan himself and Frenchman Ciryl Gane. The duel will put the heavyweight belt at stake, promising to be one of the most anticipated clashes of the year.

Meanwhile, Jon Jones’ future remains unclear. Without fighting since November 2024, the North American has a fight record with 28 wins and just one loss.
