Following his victory over Ilir Latifi at UFC 232, Corey Anderson has issued a challenge to Jon Jones and the light-heavyweight champ has responded.
Anderson worked his way to a decision win over the 205 contender, and in doing so, he extended his winning streak to three. Recently the former TUF winner directed the tweet below at Jones, and “Bones” has since responded.
