Chuck Liddell: Dana White thought Jon Jones and I were going to fight in stands at UFC 196

Jon Jones and Chuck Liddell faced off in the stands during UFC 196 earlier this month. The two UFC legends were just posing for a picture that Jones would later post on Instagram.

But UFC president Dana White feared the worst. He turned around and thought Jones and Liddell were going to throw down right there, Liddell said Friday night on Inside MMA.

"He thinks we're gonna fight," Liddell said. "Dana, c'mon. You know me better than that. I'm not that guy."

White had a reason to be worried.
