Jon Jones, Daniel Cormier Announced as Coaches for Russian MMA Reality Show
"It appears that Jon Jones and Daniel Cormier will renew their rivalry as opposing coaches on a mixed martial arts reality show. On Monday, ALF Reality announced via social media that Jones and Cormier will coach on the third iteration of the show. Noteworthy names such as Nate Diaz, Petr Yan, Khamzat Chimaev and Aljamain Sterling have served as coaches on the Russian show in previous years. A date for the new season was not revealed."
"They initially met in a light heavyweight title bout at UFC 182, with Jones winning via unanimous decision. "Bones" would also win the rematch via third-round stoppage at UFC 214, but the result was overturned to a no contest after Jones failed a drug test. Their animosity was evident outside the Octagon, including one brawl at a media day event in 2014 followed by an infamous hot mic interaction during an interview with both men on ESPN shortly thereafter."
