UFC: Jon Jones Needles Daniel Cormier over New Mexico Confrontation

Barely one week after his UFC reinstatement, Jon Jones is pulling out all the stops to irritate Daniel Cormier.

Jones took to Twitter over the weekend to needle his nemesis in the context of a new camp opening in New Mexico. The two had said they might meet in Albuquerque (h/t Brent Brookhouse of MMA Junkie) for the opening of a new facility for Jackson's MMA, Jones' home training base. (WARNING: Tweet language NSFW.)

Too pussy to fight at the garden but flies all the way to Albuquerque to prove he's a man #Scratchingmyhead you on your way pussy?

Cormier claimed he flew to New Mexico for the occasion and to meet in person with Jones, but he was prevented from entering the building.

I'm here they won't let me in! Next time he has to come to the Bay! http://pic.twitter.com/xUezZqo63Q

As many fans know, Jones was suspended in April after his alleged involvement in a hit-and-run collision that left a pregnant woman with a fractured arm. He also previously failed a drug test for cocaine metabolites and was arrested on suspicion of DUI.

After Jones' suspension, Cormier defeated Anthony Johnson to capture the newly vacated UFC light heavyweight title. Since Jones has been reinstated, he has been spoiling for a fight with Cormier. Jones defeated Cormier in January to retain what was then his championship.

Even before they fought at UFC 182, Jones and Cormier had what seemed to be a personal feud. Jones and Cormier previously brawled at an official UFC media event. In summer 2014, the two got into what appeared to be a heated exchange (WARNING: NSFW language in this video) during the down time of a mutual ESPN appearance. Microphones were apparently not supposed to pick up the verbal activity during the commercial break.

Jones' use of the "p" word to describe Cormier may have been a reference to his use of the same invective during that ESPN exchange—a reference that, at the time, appeared to stoke Cormier's temper.

There has been no word from the UFC on a next opponent for Jones or Cormier.
