UFC president Dana White rips Jon Jones for failed drug test

Jon Jones spoke to at a press conference about being pulled from UFC 200 for a potential doping violation, momentarily breaking down as he explained what happened.

UFC president Dana White and Jon Jones aren’t on the best of terms right now after Jones failed a drug test and forced a shakeup to the UFC 200 main card.

Even though he’s had a day to cool down and the UFC found a replacement opponent for Daniel Cormier, White is still upset with Jones

“I still haven’t talked to Jon Jones,” White told Colin Cowherd Friday on the FOX Sports 1 show The Herd. “There’s nothing for me and Jon Jones to talk about.”

White added that even if Jones attempted to reach out to him, he wouldn’t respond.

“The guy is a professional and I truly believe — and I’m not the biggest Jon Jones fan right now — but I truly believe that he took a supplement that had this stuff in it and it wasn’t intentional,” White said. “I truly believe that, but at the same time, come on. You’re 28 years old. You’re arguably the greatest talent to step foot in this sport, right? Call USADA and tell them what supplements you’re taking. You’ve already been through this history of absolute madness…Why would you do this to yourself?”
