Newly-minted light heavyweight champion, Magomed Ankalaev has been unusually vocal on social media following his upset title fight win at UFC 313 last weekend — this week taking aim at heavyweight kingpin, Jon Jones, blasting him as a “steroid machine.
Ankalaev, who headlined his second flagship event for the promotion earlier this month, ended the dominant title run of Brazilian star, Alex Pereira in Las Vegas — landing a controversial unanimous decision (48-47, 48-47, 49-46) victory to ascend to the light heavyweight throne.
And linked immediately with a title rematch against Pereira in his first attempted title defense, Ankalaev claimed he would finish the Sao Paulo rival if they share the Octagon in the future.
