Yesterday a video leaked showing light heavyweight champion Jon Jones, and challenger Daniel Cormier exchange a barrage of insults resulting in death threats. The feud between the two had already turned physical but now it seems to have taken another turn.

But after their appearance, the microphones and cameras continued to roll, catching another side of the 2 fighters and their heated rivalry.
The UFC has since pulled down many of the videos that leaked due to copyright issues, so we haven’t embedded them here. However the full transcript of the conversation can be seen below.

DC: “You could never kill me.”
JJ: “Oh, I bet you I could.”
DC: “Then you should try, Jon. You really should try, Jon.”
JJ: “I would literally kill you if you spit in my face.”
DC: “Yeah, let’s try that, Jon.”
JJ: “Literally kill you.”
DC: “Let’s try that, Jon.”
JJ: “I’m not saying I would fight you. I said I would kill you if you did some silly shit like that.”
DC: “Jon, do you think I’m just going to sit there and let you kill me, Jon? I mean really?”
