Everyone who watched Fury’s rant and his insistence that he would batter the UFC champ wondered the same thing; why doesn’t he prove it? Including Jon Jones himself…

Well I guess that sums the situation up really. Tyson Fury is convinced he could beat up Jon Jones in an boxing match, and Jon Jones is convinced he could beat up Tyson Fury in an MMA fight. Both of them are probably spot on! Which makes it all the weirder that Fury got so annoyed with Joe Rogan since that was essentially what he was saying in the first place.
The question is – how do you arrange a fair fight between them so we could actually see these two fight legends square off against each other? I’m sure someone will be able to figure it out given how much money there is to be made from it. Dana? Vince McMahon? Hopefully not the latter…
