UFC heavyweight champion Jon Jones answered a question about a potential fight with Sergei Pavlovich while chatting with subscribers on X social network.
"Are you afraid of Pavlovich? You know what Russians are capable of in this꧂ damn sport," a subscriber asked the American fighter.
Yep, I'm terrified. No matter who would've won that interim (Tom Aspinall defeated Pavlovich and became the interim UFC heavyweight cha⛎mpion), championship, the narrative still would be the same. The goat is getting older now, and is running from fights. 36-year-old lifelong c🌱hampion starting to contemplate retirement. What a chicken.
