Alexander Gustafsson on Jon Jones’ presser shove: ‘I wasn’t impressed by his power at all’

It’s been five years since Jon Jones and Alexander Gustafsson met face to face in front of the MMA public. Save for the expected banter, the two men somewhat showed a little teaser for their rematch at UFC 232, engaging in a brief shoving match at the event presser at UFC 230 late last week.

As seen on the video, Jones shoved Gustafsson after their faceoff, throwing the Swede off balance and about two feet away. According to Jones, he was just trying to make things a little more interesting.

“For the most part, he’s not really big on entertainment,” Jones told ESPN’s Ariel Helwani in an exclusive interview.
