The UFC Light Heavyweight Champion Jon Jones was expected to defend his belt against Alexander Gustafsson at UFC 178 in a much anticipated rematch from their UFC 165 battle. Unfortunately Gustafsson was forced to withdraw from the fight due to a training injury.
Jon Jones tells Alexander Gustafsson to focus on things he can control
While out of action, Gustafsson has been tweeting Jones, so the champ decided to respond.
