Tyson Fury dismisses UFC fight against Jon Jones: “It’s got to be under boxing rules”

Tyson Fury Will Not Compete In MMA

Jones fired back by challenging Fury to step inside the Octagon. The boxing champion hurled a subtle dig at Jones, saying that in the boxing world, he doesn’t have a boss, unlike Jones, who has to answer to UFC President Dana White. Fury also said he doesn’t fight inside the cage, he fights inside the ring.

Dana White caught wind of the verbal exchange, and said that if Fury wants to make the fight with Jones happen, they can discuss the potential matchup.

Fury took to social media to once again say that he will not be fighting under MMA rules.

“If you guys want to fight me it’s got to be under boxing rules,” Fury said. “I don’t roll round the floor, I stand up and punch.”
