This time around, it would be on the wrestling mat.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">In case you forgot, Jones and Cormier are arguably the two biggest rivals in the history of mixed martial arts (MMA). Outside of Khabib Nurmagomedov\u2019s beef with Conor McGregor, no two fighters hated each other more than \u201cBones\u201d and \u201cDC.\u201d They may have made <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mmamania.com\/ufc-news\/413279\/jon-jones-hopes-reality-show-in-thailand-lets-him-start-a-friendship-with-daniel-cormier\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">temporary mends<\/a> in the past, but it\u2019s a rivalry that will never truly die.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">Their bad blood has been boiling once again since Jones and Cormier accepted roles to coach opposite one another on ALF Reality, which is Russia\u2019s version of The Ultimate Fighter. Jones and Cormier have once again been thrown into competition and that\u2019s always going to lead to turmoil. In fact, the two <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mmamania.com\/ufc-news\/426812\/video-fat-jon-jones-shares-wildly-tense-staredown-with-daniel-cormier-on-russian-tuf-id-drown-him-in-that-pool\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">nearly brawled poolside<\/a> back in March.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">While there have been talks about a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mmamania.com\/ufc-news\/413192\/daniel-cormier-doubles-down-jon-jones-wrestling-match-raf-kick-his-ass-ufc\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">potential wrestling match<\/a> between Jones and Cormier in the past nothing has come to fruition (even though Jones was <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mmamania.com\/ufc-news\/435427\/crybaby-daniel-cormier-refuses-to-wrestle-jon-jones-on-russian-tuf-youre-in-love-with-me\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">ready to compete during filming<\/a>). That could all change now that ALF Global CEO, Alfredo Auditore, is getting involved and dedicating his time to trying to book the wrestling supermatch.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">In fact, Auditore is claiming that both Jones and Cormier are nearly locked in.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">\u201cWe\u2019ve made a wrestling match: Jon Jones vs. Daniel Cormier in our PWL (Professional Wrestling League),\u201d said Auditore during a recent <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/stories\/alfredo_auditore\/?hl=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Instagram Story<\/a>. \u201cIt\u2019s almost confirmed from both sides. Let\u2019s do it!<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">\u201cIn the works.

Instead, \u201cDC\u201d says Jones is angling for a submission only grappling match. We\u2019ll have to wait and see how the chips falls, but at least the money being offered is good enough. See it below:<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">What do you think, fight fans? Will we actually get to see a wrestling match between Jones and \u201cDC\u201d or is all of this just wishful thinking?<\/p>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"It appears that Jon Jones and Daniel Cormier might get another chance to settle their beef.
