UFC heavyweight champion Jon Jones revealed why he refused to shake former titleholder Stipe Miocic's hand during a battle of glances.

"There were two instances. First, he said: "My kids will never look at me like I'm a jerk." And that was a direct attack on me and my family, on my relationship with my kids. Second, he called me a girl. So respect went out the window. And we're going to see confirmation of that," Jones said at a press conference.

Recall that Jones and Miocic will meet in the main event of UFC 309, which will take place on the night of November 17 in New York, USA.
