The major combat sports news revolved around Tyson Fury, Jon Jones, and Joe Rogan in the last day or so. It came after Fury blasted Rogan for saying Jones would defeat the WBC champion in a no-rules fight. Fans and Jones chimed in to call out the delusional nature of Fury. However, after carefully analyzing the situation, Tyson Fury has come out with an absurd apology.

He said, “See Jon you talk about me in a cage. I’m not a cage fighter, mate. I’m a boxer, the best boxer actually. So if you want to come into a boxing ring to fight me, be my guest, let me know. You don’t have to call anybody else. It is a boxing fight, and I’m the boss in the game. You are a great fighter Jon, but you are definitely no boxer. All the best, good luck!”
