Tomorrow, UFC 232 will feature one of the most anticipated matches in years: Jon Jones vs. Alexander Gustafsson.
Five years ago, the two faced off in a close fight that lasted more than 25 minutes. Jones won, but it was one of his closest matches.
This light heavyweight headliner isn't without controversy. Jones has tested positive for performance-enhancing drugs in the past, and his most recent test resulted in an "atypical finding" of the same substance that got him suspended for 15 months in 2017. (It's also why UFC 232 was moved from Las Vegas to Los Angeles.)
On top of that, he berated a reporter who asked about his latest drug test at the UFC 232 press conference and demanded that someone remove her from the event.
What did you make of Jon Jones' behavior towards a reporter who asked about his latest drug-test situation during the #UFC232 press conference?

Jones' behavior and test results aside, this should make for a close fight.
