Before he was caught, our guy had finished every opponent in the first round. Your logic doesn\u2019t make any sense.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">\u201cI also find it funny that you, of all people, are commenting on my supposedly negative energy. I travel the world alone and get mobbed by fans, while you need full-time security in your own country. You come out once a quarter to do an interview about me and what a terrible person I am. Boy, you\u2019re obsessed with me. A blind man could see that.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">\u201cWe started off in the same dorm room, yet I\u2019ve earned and achieved literally ten times more than you have. I genuinely hope that one day you start to feel better. It sucks to even have to address you. \u2026 again\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">After the initial respone, Jones also posted a picture of Covington\u2019s infamous broken jaw, which occurred during his first title fight versus <strong>Kamaru Usman<\/strong>. Jones added on, \u201cColby, I think your deep hatred is directed at the wrong Black guy.
