Jon Jones suffered a cut above his left eye during his UFC 178 training and posted a video of him getting 4 stitches on his Instagram.
That led to challenger Daniel Cormier posting a message to Jon Jones on his Instagram warning the champ that’ll he’ll target that eye and Jones should “Keep some things private.”

Jon Jones responded a day later with a message for Cormier and his doubters:
The build up to Jones vs Cormier couldn’t be any better for MMA fans and the UFC. These two know how to sell a fight and they’re two of the best fighters in the world. This has all of the makings for a classic UFC rivalry.
