Hate, jealousy, swagger jacking – there’s very little drama missing from Rashad Evans’ (Pictured) feud with light heavyweight champ Jon Jones. To help accentuate that fact, the UFC has released yet another video to hype their highly-anticipated shootout.
In the latest promo, Evans details how his former protégé has copped his style, while Jones explains why envy has fueled Evans’ fire. All the while, perfectly placed “Hate Me Now” by Nas featuring Puff Daddy bumps in the background.
