Jones on Ngannou: 'He had the opportunity to be the guy who dethroned me'

Jon Jones, UFC heavyweight champion, responded to Ariel Helwani's words that he avoided a fight with Francis Ngannou.

“I didn’t go anywhere, I’m here. Francis had the opportunity to meet with me, but he refused. If anyone should be criticized, it's Francis Ngannou. If I'm not mistaken, he was offered the largest contract in the history of heavyweights. "He had the opportunity to be the guy who would dethrone me."
