Jon Jones To Chuck Liddell: ‘Come Get It’

48-year-old UFC hall of fame fighter Chuck Liddell isn’t done with his MMA fighting career just yet.  The former UFC Light Heavyweight champion announced on Monday’s MMA Hour; that he is officially coming out of retirement and is in negotiation to take part in a trilogy fight against a rival, Tito Ortiz, later this year. Liddell said:

“I will fight again, yeah, if we can get a deal together with somebody that makes sense, yeah.”

"I will fight again," says former UFC champion @ChuckLiddell. "I miss it, I never stopped missing it." Watch #TheMMAHour live: https://t.co/11sYrEm5Ug pic.twitter.com/JCyBakAYHV

Liddell said after he gets through Tito Ortiz, his ultimate goal is to secure a fight against former light heavyweight champion Jon Jones.

In response to Chuck Liddell challenge, Jon Jones says he is here for that, Jones wrote on Twitter,  the legendary fighter can “come get it” if that’s what he wants.

Old Chuck has been calling me out for years! I get it, I hold pretty much every record in the division. I normally try to respect my elders but if you want it come get it. Id literally fly you out to Albuquerque this weekend.

— BONY (@JonnyBones) May 14, 2018

In the 2nd tweet, Jones wrote Liddell “might want to test the strength of that jaw” before any kind of bout happens:

You might want to test the strength of that jaw before you take a bite you cant chew

— BONY (@JonnyBones) May 14, 2018

Jon Jones, 30, is currently serving USADA suspension after testing positive for a steroid in a drug test stemming from his UFC 214 fight with Daniel Cormier.

In all seriousness @ChuckLiddell I appreciate your offer for a fight, but due to scheduling conflicts may not be able to fulfill till mid 2019 .
In the Upcoming months I have similarly lethal opponents in Ric Flair and George Foreman awaiting .

— BONY (@JonnyBones) May 15, 2018

Liddell, 48, and Jones ruled over the light heavyweight division for years under their respective reigns. Jones became the youngest ever champion in UFC history when he TKOd Mauricio “Shogun” Rua back at UFC 126.

Chuk Liddell had a dominant run as champion until a left hook by Quinton “Rampage” Jackson at UFC 71 ended his time at the top of the UFC’s notorious deepest division.

Chuck Liddell (21-8) was knocked out in his last three UFC fights and after his loss to Rich Franklin at UFC 115 he announced the retirement from the Octagon.
