Israel Adesanya continues to talk about fighting Jon Jones at some juncture, and the UFC’s light-heavyweight king has directed another warning shot at the interim, middleweight champ.

Adesanya has been talking about the possibility of fighting Jones for some time now, and in a recent interview with The MacLife, he did so again. Since then, Jones tweeted out the comments below (warning: graphic language).

.@stylebender Keep convincing yourself that one day you’ll be ready to face a boss like me. I’ll keep convincing myself that when that day comes, I will make you my absolute bitch.

You said you saw me fight in person against Thiago and I didn’t look the same. I also got to see you fight KG, didn’t need to be in person. You were almost knocked out on more than one occasion

Thiago couldn’t even touch my face and he grew up kickboxing. You only got to see my striking that night and now you’re convinced you’ll beat me? Let me see you in a wrestling match or a jujitsu tournament, you probably wouldn’t even place.

I can see you’re starting to sip your own Kool-Aid, I know how it feels, I’ve been there before. Only I was around 23. Just don’t become delusional kid, fuck with a beast like me and I will expose you.

Adesanya is booked to fight middleweight champion Robert Whittaker this Saturday at UFC 243.
