Jon Jones heckles UFC Jacksonville headliners on Twitter: ‘Uncle Glover ain’t playing tonight’

With top-ranked light heavyweights Anthony Smith and Glover Teixeira in action on Wednesday night, division champion Jon Jones was watching intently.

Jones took to Twitter to provide a running commentary on the UFC Jacksonville main event, addressing both of his past opponents as the bout went on. Teixeira, who lost a five-round unanimous decision to Jones at UFC 172 six years ago, battled back from a slow start to defeat Smith by fifth-round TKO after dominating the majority of the bout.

Earlier, Jones warned that Smith should be wary of demanding a rematch.
