Jones and Sonnen coaches in next TUF
During the first part of next year we will have a big clash between current champion in light heavyweight division Jon Jones and Chael Sonnen. Someone has received confirmation that two of them will be opposing coaches in TUF.
Jon Jones recently declined to fight against Chael Sonnen, explaining apologetically that he doesn't have enought time to prepare becouse Sonnen had to replace injured Dan Henderson. Becouse of it whole UFC 151 was canceled.
Sonnen was relentless, a
few days ago on Twitter he poked Jones, and it seems that all of this was a
prelude to what awaits us in the coming months. LA Times today received
confirmation that Jones and Sonnen will be new coaches in the new season of The
Ultimate Fighter.
This would mean that the
two of them, as it is common, will meet in the final of the season and will
face in the Octagon. "It will be a good season. Jones accepted the match
because he knows that is what fans want," said Dana White, who was certainly
enthusiastic because there is no doubt that the match will bring millions of
dollars to UFC and we will enjoy a new interesting skirmishes.
Aforementioned season
finale of TUF is supposed to take place in April 2013th. Sonnen, meanwhile,
will fight against Forrest Griffin on 29th December in Las Vegas.
