UFC fighter Jon Jones has aimed another jibe at Dana White in their running dispute.
Jon Jones and Dana White have been at loggerheads that emanated when the fighter asked for ‘more pay’.
The undefeated fighter has branded White ‘stubborn and greedy’, stating that UFC has ‘ripped him off’ in his fighting career.
Everything was good until I asked for a piece of the pie.. ufc totally comfortable with me taking concussions for over a decade but asking for generational wealth. Get the f#### out of here.

When I was in my prime, the Ufc‘s way of not paying me was telling me I wasn’t a star. Had me grateful for a new car meanwhile making tens of millions without my knowing.

The discontent between Dana White and Jones began during the latter’s negotiation for a fight against the menacing heavyweight fighter Francis Ngannou.
White dispelled the fighter’s argument saying that Jones had demanded for up to £24million, a figure that was exorbitant – an allegation that Jones dispelled and called a lie.
He would then go ahead to announce (on his twitter page) that he was leaving the UFC.
