Jon Jones and Daniel Cormier seem hell-bent on getting it on before Saturday night's opening bell.

The light heavyweight champion and number one contender had to be pulled apart by staff after a long day of addressing the media yesterday. The camps of both fighters clashed in the hallway after an intense staredown and the altercation was captured by former UFC lightweight competitor Tyson Griffin who currently trains with the undefeated title challenger Daniel Cormier. http://instagram.com/p/xVTLlhSDkP/?utm_source=partner&utm_medium=embed&utm_campaign=video&modal=true http://instagram.com/p/xVdgsNyDlu/?utm_source=partner&utm_medium=embed&utm_campaign=video&modal=true While the exchange wasn't quite as heated as the infamous on-stage brawl at a media day last August, it makes for must watch television tomorrow night. We're not sure many bookmakers provide odds for fighters to throw down at a weigh-in but, if they did, we'd be lumping our mortgage on it all to kick off tonight.
