Jon Jones calls out Daniel Cormier on Twitter

Jon Jones is doing a lot of talking with his fingers.

The former light heavyweight champion hasn't said much verbally since being reinstated by the UFC after his arrest and suspension for his involvement in a hit-and-run, but he's been quite vocal in recent days on Twitter about his desire to fight Daniel Cormier.

Jones is using some colorful language, as well:

Jones hasn't granted an interview to any media outlet since his suspension ended, but it's clear his team wants Cormier.

"I can't speak for Jon on this one but as a coach, I know Daniel Cormier and his team make us work harder than ever," said Jones' striking coach Brandon Gibson, according to ESPN's Brett Okamoto.

Jones defeated Cormier via unanimous decision in January, a few months before being suspended and stripped of his title.
