The intense and long-standing rivalry between former UFC champions Jon Jones and Daniel Cormier will likely never end. And you can almost guarantee the two will never be best friends.

While they have not met inside the Octagon in several years, Jones and Cormier were put together in a foreign country - and as you might have expected, they did not get along.

In a video posted on social media by Happy Punch, Jones can be heard challenging "DC" to a wrestling match. Jones, a junior college national champion at Iowa Central Community College, and Cormier, who competed for the United States at the Olympic level, had a back-and-forth exchange.

Cormier can be heard saying, "No, I'm not grappling you. Money. More money," to which Jones said, "Daniel Cormier, little crybaby (expletive)."

Daniel Cormier, Jon Jones had two classic encounters inside the Octagon

Later during the face-off, Cormier said Jones is "in love with me. He wants to touch me. He wants to touch me, he's in love with me." He added that he was "killing him" in a wrestling match."

Jones technically won both of their battles in the UFC over the light heavyweight championship, with one of them being overturned due to a failed drug test. 

While Cormier remains involved in the UFC as an announcer, Jones has had nothing but verbal battles with UFC executive Dana White. Cormier was also recently announced as a coach opposite Michael Bisping on the next season of The Ultimate Fighter.

Ironically enough, Cormier has also been in a heated battle with Nate Diaz.

Yankees cut ties with history-making pitcher who broke 1973 drought

Yankees cut ties with history-making pitcher who broke 1973 drought originally appeared on The Sporting News. Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here.

The New York Yankees hadn't done this in a long time.

This season, for the first time since 1973, they had a Rule 5 Draft pick make the Opening Day roster.

He never actually pitched, though. Cade Winquest was designated for assignment on Thursday. He'll now have to be offered back to the St. Louis Cardinals, from whom he was picked in the offseason.

The 6-foot-2 righty Winquest topped out at Double-A Springfield in the Cardinals' system last year, where he had a 3.19 ERA in eight starts on the mound.

This spring, he didn't even put up great numbers. Winquest had a 6.48 ERA in 8.1 innings, allowing 11 hits and six earned runs while striking out seven.

The Yankees hadn't even picked a player in the Rule 5 Draft since 2011. And to keep a player, they have to be on the MLB roster all season, so the Yanks didn't give up before Opening Day and kept him around.

They've warmed him up multiple times during games, as if he could come in to pitch, but he has never actually appeared in a game.

It's a bit surprising that the Yanks wouldn't even just try Winquest once in the interest of seeing how he performs.

If the Cardinals take Winquest back, he can go back down to the minor leagues. There are no guarantees about when he might return to the majors.

He'll certainly have a weird career timeline note -- making the Yankees' Opening Day roster in 2026 but never actually pitching in pinstripes.
