The new UFC interim light heavyweight champion had a message for the current champion Saturday night after dominated Ovince Saint Preux in a unanimous decision victory at UFC 197 in Las Vegas. As he left the Octagon, Jones flipped Cormier the bird. Cormier was broadcasting the fight as an analyst alongside Mike Goldberg and Joe Rogan.
Jones was supposed to face Cormier in this fight, but "DC" pulled out three weeks ago due to a leg injury. Cormier said on the broadcast that it killed him to withdraw, because Jones did look a bit rusty against OSP.
