Joe Rogan seemingly shook the wrong tree when he hypothetically put Tyson Fury and Jon Jones in a locked room and made a bet in Jones’ favor. The act garnered a robust response from the WBC heavyweight champion. Fury bashed the UFC commentator and claimed that no one could defeat him inside the ring.

Soon after Fury’s response went viral, ‘Bones’ took to Twitter and sent a sneaky reply to the professional boxer, thereby defending his supporter. Although he claimed that he could not defeat ‘The Gypsy King’ in a boxing ring, the outcome would be pretty different if the two landed in an MMA cage. However, when a fan, intrigued by Jones’ confidence, asked him how soon he could finish the fight, Jones gave a classic two-word answer.
