DC to Jones: Dont Follow McGregors Footsteps in the Spotlight

Former UFC double champion in both light heavyweight (up to 93 kg) and heavyweight (up to 120 kg) divisions, as well as a member of the UFC Hall of Fame, American **Daniel Cormier** has urged his legendary compatriot **Jon Jones** to refrain from making bold statements regarding a potential return to MMA.

“Jon and I often have differing views on many topics. And, oh my, he has really made a name for himself as a newsmaker on my YouTube channel over the past couple of months. But please, don’t become like **Conor McGregor** when it comes to the media. Whenever there’s a significant news event, Conor says, ‘I’m back.’

Don’t do that. Don’t invent stories about yourself when you’re a guy who is supposedly out of the game,” Cormier’s words were reported by MMAJunkie.

Jones competed professionally from 2008 to 2024. His record includes 28 wins, one loss, and one no contest. He is recognized by many analysts and fighters as one of the greatest athletes in the history of mixed martial arts.
