Jon Jones vs Dana White: who will win UFC argument?

Daily Mail  

Jon Jones and Dana White are at loggerheads and there is no sign of a quick resolution to their heated and very public dispute over pay. UFC president Dana White and Jon Jones are in a dispute over payment First, a recap of their argument. Jones claimed White had 'tarnished' him by going public with negotiations and labelled the UFC president's claims that his demands were 'absurd', as 'b******t'. White is adamant that Jones's demands are 'absurd' and the fighter has vacated his belt The case for Jon Jones Nobody can argue with Jones' pedigree. Without knowing the true figure, which Jones says he hasn't even specified during negotiations despite White mentioning £24m, it is hard to accurately gauge whether the UFC president's assertion that 'absurd' demands have been made is true.
