Old UFC guys going at it is always entertaining. Former UFC champion Jon Jones took a shot at his former rival Chael Sonnen, telling the retired fighter that he is “beneath him” after Sonnen made light of a Jones tweet in which he said he was to “give birth to something big” Jones hasn’t fought in over a year. Sonnen used his tweet to poke a little fun.
Check out Jones’ tweet below, and Sonnen’s response.
I’m about to give birth to something big, something out of the ordinary.

Jon
There's more elegant ways to let the world know you picked up a Laxative company as a sponsor https://t.co/DHFlIBgedz— Chael Sonnen (@ChaelSonnen) May 24, 2021
Sonnen doubled-down on his insult the following day:
Jon Jones is giving birth…to what? pic.twitter.com/7QHqe8gktP

In a since-deleted tweet, Jones responded to Sonnen saying:
“Does your wife think about me as much as you do? Why is my d*ck constantly in your mouth. Get over me already.
“As successful as you are it’s crazy to see you living in my shadow the way you do,” Jones added. “Just remember losers focus on winners.
Sonnen responded to Jones’ insult.
Is it my fault my wife is hotter than the pics you had on the walls of your prison-cell?

I'd attack your wife….
But…..Y'ain't GOT one
I guess multiple rehab stints, arrests, and booking it after crashing into pregnant women don't exactly scream "marriage material", does it?— Chael Sonnen (@ChaelSonnen) May 26, 2021
Now Jon, that was hurtful… pic.twitter.com/l5HaYYtMvb

You've got some grammar problems there, (former) Champ
Spend a little less $ on Tequila and a little more on an editor

Highly entertaining stuff, and fighting on Twitter is far safer than in the Octagon.
With that being said, I’d love to see these two actually spar.
