Remember when UFC light heavyweight champ Daniel Cormier ignited “towel gate” by using an old wrestling trick to grab the towel and take some of the weight off the scales during his UFC 210 weigh-in against Anthony “Rumble” Johnson in April? Arch-rival Jon “Bones” Jones certainly hasn’t forgot and lambasted the champ on Twitter today with a picture mocking Cormier’s towel-grabbing tactics. Jones will have his chance to reclaim the title he never officially lost when he rematches Cormier on July 29 in the UFC 214 main event. But make no mistake, the fight is already well underway.
All the discipline and hard work is definitely paying off, was a mean 217lbs today after practice. #NoShortcutsToGreatness #CheatingAsshole pic.twitter.com/YpMd22a0ky
