Jon Jones has started negotiations with the UFC in hopes that a deal can be brokered for a showdown with new heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou.
The longtime light heavyweight king took to Twitter on Wednesday to reveal details surrounding a recent conversation with UFC executive vice president and chief business officer Hunter Campbell as talks get underway for what could be a massive fight for the promotion.
“I had a brief phone meeting with UFC‘s lawyer Hunter a few days ago,” Jones wrote on Twitter. “As of right now I expressed to him that anywhere around $8 to $10 million would be way too low for a fight of this magnitude.
