What began as an innocent question to Jon Jones during a Facebook Live Q&A prior to UFC 214 has rapidly evolved into one of MMA’s most curious budding feuds.

After delivering a classy speech directed at Cormier in his post-fight interview, Jones proceeded to get on the mic and call out Lesnar. There are many hurdles to overcome before such a fight could be made, but the interest from fans is noticeable.
