After recent criticism for maybe not going out of his solution to promote his forthcoming title fight with Chael Sonnen, UFC light heavyweight champion Jon Jones is ultimately prepared to participate in some verbal sparring. In a look on the newest edition of FUEL TV's UFC Tonight, the Greg Jackson's MMA standout accused Sonnen of being a chronic consumer of performance-enhancing drugs (via Bloody Elbow ): After using the high road for months, it appears that Sonnen's antics are beginning to use on the champ, as yesterday he made the same state onATwitterAstating that "The American Gangster"Aabused steroidsAearlier in his life. Sonnen is an open person of testosterone replacement therapy, though he was stopped by the California State Athletic Commission after his first name bet with UFC middleweight kingpin Anderson Silva this year for increased quantities of testosterone (via Sherdog). "Bones" had MMA fans and analysts alike scratching their heads ever since he refused to engage with Sonnen within a pre-fight interview at The Best Fighter Season 17 ending on Saturday. However, it appears the principal titleholder has already established a change of heart and wants to knock Sonnen off his common large horse. Johnson was in no way in poor spirits, though, as on the same broadcast the two-time UFC middleweight title challenger was credited by him for having strong boxing, wrestling and ground-and-pound (via Bloody Elbow). None the less, Jones said he is maybe not concerned about anything Sonnen brings to the table. Jones vs. Sonnen headlines UFC 159 next Saturday, April 27, at the Prudential Center in Newark, Nj-new Jersey.
