Tyson Fury rips into Joe Rogan after Jon Jones UFC prediction
Tyson Fury has slammed "bald midget" UFC pundit Joe Rogan after his prediction that he would have "no chance" of beating Jon Jones.
The 'Gypsy King' has been inactive on social media in recent weeks after the collapse of his undisputed title fight with Oleksandr Usyk which was set to take place in April. After initially training for the event, Fury has been away on holiday and is yet to receive a date to compete despite pencilling in a potential voluntary defence this summer in the UK.
However he has today made a vicious return to social media demanding a return to the ring, but has also ignited a feud with UFC expert Rogan. The American star suggested that if Fury was put into a fight with Jones without sanctions that he would come off second best.
“If Jon Jones and Tyson Fury are locked into a room, I’ll push all of my chips on black," Rogan said on his podcast. "Nobody thinks Tyson Fury could beat Jon Jones in a fight. No one thinks that, even Tyson doesn't think that. You want to talk about who’s the baddest man on the planet?
Tyson Fury is an amazing boxer but he doesn’t have a f****ng chance in hell of making it out of that room. Zero chance. He'd have to catch Jon immediately with one punch and I just don't see that happening. The threat of the takedown looms so large and that shot will come so unexpectedly. When he gets his hands around you, you'll be so stunned."

However the 'Gypsy King' has now furiously hit back at the claim, shouting in a video: "And also I am in the prime of my life as well. I am as strong and as big as I have ever been. I am looking to sign a ten-fight deal. I am not going nowhere. I am not going anywhere. I am coming for all of you motherf*****s out there.

"I am the baddest man on the planet. I heard Joe Rogan say something about me the other day but I have been off of all social medias so I didn't reply to the little p****. The little f***ing bald-headed midget. I heard him say Jon Jones could f*** me up if we were in the room together.
"I don't think so, not a man born from his mother can f*** me up. If we were ever on our own in a room, whatever happens in a room, I'd be walking out not a f***ing problem." Jones has never lost during his stint in the UFC and is considered arguably the greatest to ever compete in the promotion.
However Fury equally is undefeated and is considered one of the greatest of the modern era, and has even teased getting in the cage himself against ex-UFC heavyweight Francis Ngannou. The fight seems unlikely however given he is currently focused on accepting the biggest and best fights available in the squared circle.
