UFC superstar Jon Jones was chatting with fans on Thursday via social media, and the longtime pound-for-pound king ended up laughing off the suggestion that Jones and his NFL star brother, Chandler Jones, would have any sort of real challengers out there in the world of brothers vs. brothers challenges.
A fan asked Jones if he could beat up his brother, but Jones said the better question was about what brothers would stand a chance against the Jones gang, Jon and Chandler.
When a fan suggested the answer might be Jake and Logan Paul, “Bones” laughed it off via emoji.
The Paul brothers are social media celebrities who have each become professional boxers. Jake Paul, 24, is 3-0 with 3 KOs. Logan Paul, 26, is 0-1, but he’s heading into a boxing exhibition bout against Floyd Mayweather Jr. on June 6.

Jones Told Heavy He Supports Paul Brothers on One Condition
In December 2020, Jones talked to Heavy about the Paul brothers, and he had mostly positive things to say about the YouTubers.
“I love them in the sport. They have a young audience. They have a very diverse audience. They are generally passionate about combat sports, both UFC, and boxing. They are exciting,” Jones said.
Jones revealed back then that he fully supports the Paul brothers in the world of combat sports on one condition.
“I wish them all the best as long as they’re not talking s*** to me,” Jones said.
It should be noted that neither of the Paul brothers to date has gone after Jones via social media.

Another Brother Battle Suggested as Jones Waits for UFC Fight
But Jake and Logan Paul weren’t the only brother tandem offered by fans to Jones as a possible challenge for the Jones brothers. WWE superstars The Undertaker and Kane are not brothers in real life, but the massive behemoths play characters that are related in the WWE universe.
Jones responded to that suggestion, too. And it appears this time he didn’t laugh.
Jones hasn’t competed in the UFC since beating Dominick Reyes at UFC 247 in February 2020. He wants to fight UFC heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou next, but he’s still haggling with UFC president Dana White over how much he should make for the superfight.
In the meantime, Jones continues to train and eat. He’s looked bigger and better than ever in recent posts on Instagram, and he could be back to action sometime later this year.
So Jon Jones, one of the most decorated UFC champs ever, and Chandler Jones, a linebacker for the Arizona Cardinals going on his 12th year of playing pro ball in the NFL, would be as fearsome a tandem as ever right about now.
