UFC champ Jon Jones appears to welcome a fight with Dominick Reyes , but he doesn’t seem overly enthusiastic about it. Reyes (12-0 MMA, 6-0 UFC) strengthened his case to challenge Jones (25-1 MMA, 19-1 UFC) for the light heavyweight title when he earned a first-round TKO of Chris Weidman in Friday’s UFC on ESPN 6 headliner. He made a valid argument why he should get the shot during his post-fight media rounds, also taking a few shots at “Bones” in the process. Jones clearly heard Reyes, because on Saturday he responded to “The Dominator” for the first time (via Twitter ): Many have talk shit, all have fallen.
