Daniel Cormier and Jon Jones are already kicking off the heat into their newly signed matchup for UFC 178 in September.

Cormier revealed today that Jones sent him a direct message on Twitter after the fight was put together stating, "I hope you're ready to come to daddy."

The former Strikeforce Heavyweight Grand Prix winner had a retort to send, but the Champ isn't following him on Twitter, so the direct message response wasn't sent. Instead, he decided to put it out to the world to get it to Jones instead.




The fight goes down Sept. 27 on pay-per-view in Las Vegas at UFC 178.

Penick's Analysis: Ladies and gentleman, this is just the beginning. There's some bad blood that's been built up here already, and though there's a professional respect inherent in this feud, this is far from the last comments these two will make towards one another. It was said before, but while the Alexander Gustafsson injury is unfortunate, there's nothing lacking in this particular fight.
