Dana White and Jon Jones have a laugh over Tito Ortiz's hilarious "Mumbai, Indiana" clip
Seems like UFC heavyweight champion Jon Jones has joined Dana White in mocking Tito Ortiz for some verbal blunders he made in the past. White has seemingly developed an interest in the snippets of Ortiz expressing vague ideas and slip-ups in past interviews.
An Instagram page named falcongfx regularly posts Ortiz's blunders and White has become a frequent visitor in the comments section. Usually, his response is a casual, "My Boy!" But this time, White took a different approach, tagging Jones to check out the latest clip.
The clip featured Ortiz reaching out to a fan, who apparently shifted from the UK (United Kingdom) to India. The former UFC fighter slipped up while delivering the message and said, " You moved to Mumbai, Indiana." Jones responded with a smiling emoji, clearly amused by the post.
Check out the video and the interaction below:
White has reacted to several videos on the page, mocking Ortiz for the mix-up between Cris Cyborg and Ronda Rousey:
"LMFAO!!!! Cyborg's face when he calls her Ronda. Did I seriously just hire this dude to manage my career!?!?"
He also reacted to a video of Ortiz clarifying that he doesn't have CTE (Chronic traumatic encephalopathy):
"Tito's not punch drunk at all. He was this dumb before he started fighting. It's not his speech. He doesn't have CTE, he has D.U.M.B. When you are trying to tell people, "I'm intelligent," you are most likely not."
Tom Aspinall reacts to Dana White's praises for Jon Jones
UFC interim heavyweight champion Tom Aspinall has had enough of Dana White praising Jon Jones. Several fans in the MMA community have noticed a pattern where White seemingly steers the discussion off course to his claim of Jones being the pound-for-pound best fighter in the history of combat sports.
While Aspinall has never discredited Jones' legacy in the sport, he simply cannot wrap his head around the fact that 'Bones' will fight Stipe Miocic next. Speaking in a recent episode of the Believe You Me podcast, Aspinall said:
"I’m not getting my credit for it. They’re holding the belt hostage, mate, and Jon Jones is loving it. He’s loving the fact that Dana is getting on every interview possible, [where] you’re talking about bantamweights, and Dana White flips it and starts talking about how good Jon Jones is. I’m like, ‘Mate, if he’s that good, let’s fight."
