White not speaking with Jon Jones: He 'should have cleaned house long ago'

UFC president Dana White is not happy about Jon Jones' positive drug test almost ruining his biggest event to date.

White stated Thursday that he had not spoken to Jones nor had he watched the fighter's press conference. Since Jones' spot on the card has been filled with Anderson Silva, White has now started to open up about his communication and relationship with "Bones."

"I haven't talked to Jon Jones and I won't. We have nothing to talk about. Jones should have cleaned house long ago," said White, according to ESPN's Jonathan Coachman, on Friday.

Jones was notified of his positive drug test late Wednesday night and had to be removed from Saturday's co-main event against Daniel Cormier. This was scheduled to be Jones' second fight following his return from a suspension due to a slew of legal troubles in 2015.

"How many more chances can you give him?" said White. "Forget letting us down, how about letting yourself down."

White had been defensive of Jones in the past in hopes that the 28-year-old would stop getting into off-the-mat problems and focus on his career as a UFC champion. He appears to have let that ship sail and seems intent to move onto a new top fighter.

"If Cormier was my champion for the rest of my career I would be good with that," said White.
