What happened: Daniel Cormier says an organization offered both him and Jon Jones seven figures apiece for a six-minute wrestling match, but Jones declined. "He will not do it," Cormier said, adding that the promoter behind the offer was not a major MMA outfit because, in his words, such a group could not afford the purse. The proposed bout would have put the longtime rivals on the mat rather than in the cage.

Why it matters: A Cormier-Jones wrestling exhibition would revive one of the sport's most heated rivalries, and Cormier's public airing of the negotiations keeps the door open by putting pressure on Jones to respond. It also underscores that the appetite for the matchup remains commercial, even as an actual competition stays hypothetical.

What to watch: Watch for a reply from Jon Jones and for any confirmation of the organization said to be behind the offer.
