Dana White Says Jon Jones 'Tarnished' His Name; Would Welcome Him Back to UFC

UFC President Dana White ripped into Jon Jones on Saturday, calling out the light heavyweight champion for "tarnishing" his own name as the impasse regarding Jones' next fight continues.

"He can do whatever he wants. He wants to sit out, fight, he can do whatever. He can say whatever he wants publicly. It's his God-given right in America. He can say whatever he wants. When he's ready to come back, he can.

"In one of his tweets, he said I tarnished his name. I tarnished you? You've done a very good job of tarnishing you.
