How have we not seen this clip of Conor McGregor and Jon Jones before?

We're not too sure when this was filmed but we're bloody glad it was as two of the flashiest strikers in the UFC join forces for a little bit of silliness. Reigning light heavyweight Jon Jones and Irish featherweight contender Conor McGregor are renowned for their spinning techniques and they're more than happy to throw them at the drop of a hat. The clip shows Jon Jones lightly throwing a spinning back kick before following up with an elbow. "The Notorious," meanwhile just displays the defence of distraction by wiggling his hands in the face of "Bones". We fancy Jon Jones to take this one easily if they were ever to scrap for real but McGregor certainly showed some nice movement to avoid Jones' spinning elbow. H/t to MMAMania
