UFC welterweight champion Leon Edwards reacted to the proposal of the current “king” of the heavyweight division Jon Jones.

Earlier, the American congratulated the Briton on his confident victory over Colby Covington and declared his desire to give him a substantial gift - a motorcycle.

“My respect, the greatest fighter of all time. It was an easy job. Your words mean a lot to me. But I don't ride a motorcycle. But I’d take the Rolex,” Edwards wrote in X.
