Jake Paul isn’t holding back in mocking the former UFC champion, Daniel Cormier. Prior to his boxing bout against Ben Askren, Paul has shared verbal banter with several professional fighters. Meanwhile, Cormier’s favor over Ben Askren in winning the upcoming fight doesn’t seem to have sat well with ‘The Problem Child’. Daniel Cormier [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/daniel-cormier/] took to Twitter and reacted to the recent face-off between Askren and Paul. While the pair got physical with each other, Cormier pointed at how Paul’s body shot couldn’t crumble ‘Funky’. That said, he backed his former UFC peer to win the fight. In response, Jake Paul [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/jake-paul/] didn’t begin a bad-blood feud. Instead, he sheepishly promoted a bitcoin service with Daniel Cormier’s photo on it. However, the picture was taken at Cormier’s deepest career loss. After losing the second fight against Jon Jones [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/jon-jones/], an emotional ‘DC’ cried away in the post-fight interview. While many applauded him for being a class act, several fans mocked him at that moment. Jake Paul is seemingly one of the latter, as he used a smart way to trash the two-division UFC legend.

He called out ‘Notorious’ several times and tried to make it personal with him. However, with no response from the other end, Paul moved back to the boxing circuit. He shared a verbal feud with Canelo Alvarez [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/canelo-alvarez/] and without any legitimate response from professional combatants; he was left with limited options. That’s when Ben Askren accepted a boxing clash against him. The two will lock horns on April 17, and it will be Paul’s first fight against a professional fighter. Meanwhile, this will be Ben Askren’s first fight as a pro boxer. So, both men will have a lot to fight for. And with so much on the line, we can expect them to present an intriguing battle.

Conor McGregor

Conor McGregor Net Worth 2024, Wife, Next Fight, and More Who is Conor McGregor? There&#8217;s barely any UFC fan who is not familiar with the name Conor McGregor. ConchÃºr AntÃ³in Mac GrÃ©agÃ³ir, an Irish MMA fighter, has become synonymous with the UFC, at least for an entire generation of fans. Deemed one of the highest-earning athletes in the world, the first-ever UFC two-division champion charted the Forbes No. 1 list in 2021 for his earnings both inside and outside the octagon. Apart from his fighting prowess, he is today a successful entrepreneur and very much a family man. So hereâ€™s a detailed peek into UFCâ€™s very own â€˜Notorious.â€™ Conor McGregorâ€™s early lifeÂ  McGregor was born in the year 1988 to Margaret and Tony McGregor in the capital city of Ireland, Dublin. McGregor&#8217;s mother is Margaret McGregor, and his father&#8217;s name is Tony McGregor. Apart from these two, the McGregor family also consists of the fighter&#8217;s two sisters. Erin McGregor is his oldest sister, while his second older sister is named Aoife McGregor. Erin McGregor has also appeared as a contestant in the noted celebrity dance reality show, &#8216;Dancing with the Stars&#8217;. She also works as a fitness model. On the other hand, Aoife McGregor prefers staying out of the spotlight and runs an excavation business with her husband Mark Elliott in Dublin. &#8216;Mystic Mac&#8217; attended Irish language schools for his education. He completed his primary schooling at Gaelscoil Scoil Mologa, in Harold&#8217;s Cross. He also got admitted toÂ  GaelcholÃ¡iste ColÃ¡iste de hÃde in Tallaght.   McGregor grew up in a rather violent neighborhood of Crumlin in Dublin. He also played football in his youth. But at the age of 12, McGregor started taking boxing lessons at the Crumlin Boxing Club to raise his confidence and defend himself in the fights he often got into. McGregor shifted to Lucan in Dublin in the year 2006. He also took up an apprenticeship as a plumber. Also, it was in Lucan where McGregor had his meeting with the former UFC fighter, Tom Egan. This meeting opened up whole new avenues before McGregor. They also started training in MMA together. Conor McGregor&#8217;s wife and children First and foremost it needs to be mentioned that Conor McGregor isn&#8217;t married as of now. The Irishman has been in a relationship with his girlfriend-turned-fiance, Dee Devlin. McGregor first met Devlin in 2008 and the two have been together ever since. However, their relationship became public post-McGregor&#8217;s UFC rise in 2013. The Dublin native also got engaged to the love of his life in the year 2020. McGregor and Devlin also have four three kids together named, Conor Jr., Croai, Rian, and their latest addition, Mack. McGregor&#8217;s son, Conor Jr. is his eldest offspring, followed by his daughter Croai. Then followed by Rian, and the youngest is Mack, born in November 2023. Conor McGregor&#8217;s net worth 2024 The 35-year-old Irishman took the UFC and the sport of MMA to a whole new level since he joined in 2013. McGregor showcased his superb in-octagon prowess to become the first-ever champ-champ of the UFC. Understandably, the UFC also didn&#8217;t limit itself financially and awarded McGregor lucrative contracts.   &#8216;The Notorious&#8217; also holds an awesome insight about how he can multiply his money with investments. He has invested in numerous businesses to date and makes some hefty amounts from there as well. As far as reports suggest, &#8216;Conor McGregor&#8217;s net worth&#8217; stands at a whopping $200M by the end of the year 2024. McGregor also receives his salary per fight, like every other UFC fighter. &#8216;The Notorious&#8217; earned his all-time highest base salary in his two last bouts against the famed lightweight, Dustin Poirier, which stood at a whopping $5M. The same bouts also earned him his biggest paydays. Also, McGregor&#8217;s total earnings from both bouts were exactly the same. &#8216;Mystic Mac&#8217; pocketed an insane $5,011,000 for each of the two fights. Conor McGregorâ€™s career timeline The boy who once started boxing to defend himself from bullies today rules the world of MMA. Here are some of the highlights of his decorated career: Began showing interest in MMA (April 2006) First MMA Fight (February 2007) First Professional MMA Fight (March 2009) UFC Debut (April 2013) Fastest UFC Knockout in Championship Match (Jose Aldo, December 2015) First simultaneous UFC double champion (Eddie Alvarez, November 2016) Professional Boxing Debut (August 2017) Conor McGregor: UFC record The later part of McGregor&#8217;s career saw him pick up quite a few losses. The UFC record of arguably the most noted figure in MMA currently stands at 22-6-0. His last win was against Donald Cerrone by TKO but sadly the fighter was in recovery after two consecutive losses against Dustin Poirier, with the latter leaving him with a fractured tibia that required surgical intervention.Â    The fighter has however independently announced his comeback, but we are still awaiting an official confirmation from the promotion he is contractually bound to. And as per his own revelation to The MMA Hour host Ariel Helwani, he has only two more fights left in his contract. He has further made it abundantly clear that his loyalties lie with the UFC and has denied any inclination towards free agency or otherwise.Â  Conor McGregor&#8217;s next fight â€“ Who are the possible opponents for the UFC Star Most UFC fans are aware of the fact that &#8216;The Notorious&#8217; had his last octagon outing at UFC 264. After his gruesome shinbone injury in the bout against Dustin Poirier, McGregor was sidelined for an unprecedented amount of time. There were a lot of talks about 2023 being the year of his return. Several fans had also expected the same when McGregor was elected as one of the coaches for &#8216;The Ultimate Fighter&#8217; this year. As per the ritual, the two TUF coaches, McGregor and Michael Chandler were also pitted against each other for a bout that would also mark McGregor&#8217;s return to the octagon. But with &#8216;The Irishman&#8217; failing his USADA testing pool deadline, the entire bout is currently in jeopardy. McGregor and Chandler were scheduled to compete at the last PPV of 2023. Nonetheless, now that he is back at the testing pool, it seems that 2024 is really the year.Â Earlier, the UFC president Dana White sounded pretty keen to make this bout happen when he talked about exempting McGregor from the USADA. McGregor&#8217;s New Year&#8217;s Eve announcement which he deemed himself as &#8220;The Greatest Comeback in Sports History,&#8221;Â has only added to the excitement of his fans. The only update we have so far is that on June 29th, 2024, &#8216;Mystic Mac&#8217; will be facing Michael Chandler and at a weight neither has ventured yet- 185 Lbs. Regardless, the UFC or head honcho Dana White is yet to provide any confirmation on the ordeal, and so far, no contracts have been signed. Given the lack of sufficient confirmation, Chandler has been outspoken about getting restless, and that he is not worried about fighting at a different weight.Â But, in an unpredictable sport like MMA, we will still have to wait and watch who exactly McGregor fights next. Conor McGregorâ€™s businesses and endorsements &#8216;The Notorious&#8217; is easily among the wealthiest mixed martial artists. He has huge endorsement deals and tie-ups with Monster Energy, Reebok, Beats Electronics, Burger King, Anheuser-Busch InBev, and Budweiser. Additionally, McGregor has his clothing line, August McGregor, and his whiskey brand, Proper No. Twelve. McGregor set foot into the spirits industry in September 2018 with his Proper No. 12 Irish Whiskey. Initially, McGregor launched the product in the US and Ireland only. However, the success of the product had McGregor expressing his wishes to restock in the US and Ireland. via Getty McGregor also intended to introduce his whiskey into the markets of the UK, Australia, New Zealand, Russia, and Canada in 2019. However, in 2021 it was reported that McGregor and his partners had sold their shares of Proper No. 12 Irish Whiskey to &#8216;Proximo Siprits&#8217; for a hefty $600M.

They have several outlets in some of the noted cities of this world. However, McGregor&#8217;s Black Forge Inn pub in Dublin was subjected to an attack from criminals on 12 January 2022. The hooligans threw petrol bombs targeting the pub. Thankfully, no one was injured in the incident. McGregor also promised a cash reward to anyone identifying the criminals Conor McGregorâ€™s UFC careerÂ  McGregor made his professional debut as a lightweight in 2008. The Irishman made waves in the European MMA scene and finally found himself in Britain&#8217;s biggest promotion, The Cage Warriors. There he set up an 8 fight winning streak. In the same time frame, he became the Cage Warriors featherweight and lightweight double champion, the first European to do so. McGregor&#8217;s journey in the UFC is nothing but a fairy tale. He finished Marcus Brimage via knockout in his debut in 2013. After defeating the famed Max Holloway in his second bout, McGregor became a household name even to the UFC audience. His further wins against Dustin Poirier and Dennis Siver made sure that his demand to fight for the UFC Featherweight Championship was answered positively. But McGregor had to take on the Interim Featherweight Champion, Chad Mendes, before his title bout against the then-injured Featherweight kingpin, Jose Aldo. McGregor got the better of Mendes with a TKO in a neck-to-neck battle in UFC 189. He crowned himself the Interim Featherweight Champion, further justifying his Featherweight title shot. &#8216;The Notorious&#8217; finally had his much-awaited Featherweight title bout against Jose Aldo at UFC 194. Most UFC fans would agree that McGregor delivered one of the most iconic performances in the history of the UFC that night. He knocked out the fan-favorite, Aldo, in just 13 seconds of the bout claiming his UFC Featherweight title. McGregor had his first UFC loss against the coveted Nate Diaz at UFC 196 when he decided to move up to the Welterweight division. Diaz landed a few clean strikes in the second round of the bout which made McGregor shoot for a double leg. However, the &#8216;Stockton Gangster&#8217; used his superb BJJ skills to transition it to a rear-naked choke and submitted McGregor at the 4:12 mark of the second round. But during their rematch at UFC 202, McGregor avenged his defeat. Post that, he also earned the lightweight belt by defeating then-champion Eddie Alvarez at UFC 205. But McGregor couldn&#8217;t defend his Featherweight title successfully even once as he was stripped of it on 26 November 2016. The UFC authorities blamed it on his inactivity and announced that he had vacated the title himself. However, McGregor&#8217;s associates said that he was stripped. Conor McGregor&#8217;s Fight Against Floyd Mayweather Jr. McGregor&#8217;s fame in the UFC had him venturing out into other avenues as well. In June 2017, a boxing bout between McGregor and the coveted undefeated boxer, Floyd Mayweather, was announced. The bout was expected to be the most cost-involved boxing matchup at that time. The earnings of Mayweather from the bout stood at a whopping $280M while &#8216;Mystic Mac&#8217; also earned a lump sum amount of $130M. via Getty However, McGregor didn&#8217;t quite have the outcome of his choice, as he was knocked out by Mayweather in the tenth round of the bout. But this bout earned him a lot of respect from the boxing community. Conor McGregorâ€™s Graphic Injury at UFC 264 Conor McGregor in his third fight against rival Dustin Poirier at UFC 264, had an immensely toxic buildup to the fight. One reason for the toxicity between the two is an unpaid charity pledge, which McGregor promised in their second fight at UFC 257.Â  Leading up to their fight at UFC 264, both McGregor and Poirier had one win over each other, and their fight at UFC 264 was supposed to be the tiebreaker. Ironically enough, this didnâ€™t seem to be the case, as the fight ended prematurely, with McGregor snapping his leg near the end of the very first round.Â  This led to Dustin Poirier Being termed the winner of the fight via Doctorâ€™s Stoppage. The injury has kept him out of action for over two years. However, the Irishman is finally aiming for a return in 2024. Despite the injury, McGregor has kept himself busy focusing on his outside of fighting.Â  Conor McGregorâ€™s major achievements and awards Interim UFC Featherweight Championship against Chad Mendes at UFC 189, 2015 UFC Featherweight Championship against Jose Aldo at UFC 194, 2015 UFC Lightweight Championship against Eddie Alvarez via TKO, UFC 205, 2016 Fight of the Night (Two times) vs. Nate Diaz (x2) First Irish-born UFC champion Third Multi-Divisional Champion in UFC History (Featherweight, Lightweight) First simultaneous multi-divisional champion in UFC history (Featherweight, Lightweight) Fastest win in a UFC Championship fight (13 seconds) vs. JosÃ© Aldo Conor McGregor&#8217;s charity works Leaving aside the controversies, McGregor has done a lot of charity work for his community.

<h3 style="text-align: center">Jon Jones: Net Worth 2024, Wife and Record</h3>
<h2>Who is Jon Jones?</h2>
Jon Jones is a former UFC light heavyweight champion and the current UFC heavyweight champion. The 37-year-old is the youngest fighter to ever win a UFC championship. 'Bones' won the UFC light heavyweight title at just 23 years of age. His MMA record now stands at 26-1-0 (1 NC).
<h2 style="text-align: left"><b>Jon Jones’ early life and family</b></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400">Jon Jones was born on July 19, 1987, </span><span style="font-weight: 400">in Rochester, New York.  </span><span style="font-weight: 400">He is the second son of Arthur Jones Jr. &amp; Camille Jones. His father was a pastor at Mount Sinai Church of God in Christ in Binghamton, New York. His mother is no more. In 2017, she passed away at the age of 55 due to diabetes.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">Jones’ father wanted him to follow his path instead of becoming a fighter. During an <a href="https://www.christianpost.com/news/jon-bones-jones-father-wanted-him-to-preach-not-join-ufc.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">interview with The Christian Post</a>, his father revealed that he even discouraged Jon Jones from becoming a fighter.</span>

[caption id="attachment_546110" align="aligncenter" width="1920"]<img class="size-full wp-image-546110" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20210209222840/GettyImages-1204970739.jpg" alt="Jon Jones" width="1920" height="1280" /> HOUSTON, TEXAS - FEBRUARY 08: Jon Jones celebrates his victory over Dominick Reyes in their light heavyweight championship bout during the UFC 247 event at Toyota Center on February 08, 2020 in Houston, Texas. (Photo by Josh Hedges/Zuffa LLC via Getty Images)[/caption]

<span style="font-weight: 400">Jon Jones has two brothers, Chandler Jones and Arthur Jones, who are both football players. Chandler Jones is a professional football player and the younger brother of Jon Jones. He played college football at Syracuse University before being drafted by the New England Patriots in 2012. He has since played for the Arizona Cardinals and is considered one of the best defensive ends in the NFL.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">Arthur Jones is also a professional football player and the older brother of Jon Jones and Chandler Jones. Born on June 3, 1986, in Endicott, New York, Arthur played college football at Syracuse University and was drafted by the Baltimore Ravens in 2010. He has also played for the Indianapolis Colts and the Washington Football Team.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">Jon Jones' brothers, Chandler and Arthur, have had a significant impact on his career. Growing up in a competitive household with two brothers who were already successful athletes, he was constantly motivated to improve his own athletic abilities. Chandler and Arthur have also provided support and guidance throughout Jon's career, helping him to stay focused and grounded.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">Jones also had a sister, Carmen Jones, who passed away at the age of 18 due to a brain tumor.</span>
<h2 style="text-align: left"><b>Jon Jones’ wife and children</b></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400">Jon Jones’ is not married. However, many did mistake him and <strong>Jessie Moses</strong> for being a married couple owing to their long relationship and the fact that they eventually got engaged. Not much is known about Jessie Moses except that she was born on</span><span style="font-weight: 400"> 12 September 1987 to Sheila Ryan. She attended the same high school as Jon Jones, </span><span style="font-weight: 400">Endicott High School in New York. She then went to </span><span style="font-weight: 400">Broome Community College in Binghamton, New York, for her degree in Political Science.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">Jon Jones and Jessie Moses started dating in high school. And after over a decade of dating, Jones proposed to Moses in Easter 2013 but never got married. And back in February 2022, Jon Jones publicly announced in a now-deleted tweet that his fiancée left him soon after his arrest in 2021. But the couple seem to have set their differences aside and gotten back together. Moses was by his side when Jones won the heavyweight title on his return at UFC 285.</span>

Carmen Nicole Jones, Olivia Haven Jones, and Leah Jones are the three children Jones shares with his ex-fiancée, Jessie Moses. <span style="font-weight: 400">There is no evidence whatsoever of Jon Jones being married.</span>

<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-222513" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20200204214214/Jon-Jones-with-wife-Jessie-Moses.jpg" alt="" width="1067" height="534" />

<span style="font-weight: 400">Back in September 2021, Jon Jones was </span><span style="font-weight: 400">arrested due to a domestic violence case as he reportedly assaulted his </span><span style="font-weight: 400">fiancée Jessie Moses at the </span><span style="font-weight: 400">Caesars Palace</span><span style="font-weight: 400">. This was reported when the hotel security guard called 911 and it was reported that Jessie Moses was bleeding from the nose and the mouth. </span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">Furthermore, upon being arrested, he was charged with </span><span style="font-weight: 400">misdemeanor battery domestic violence, and injuring or tampering with a vehicle. This was not the first time that Jones has been in trouble with the law, as he has a history of legal issues, including previous arrests for driving under the influence and hit-and-run incidents.</span>
<h2 style="text-align: left"><b>Jon Jones' Net Worth 2024</b></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400">As per several reports, Jon Jones is estimated to be worth somewhere between $10 Million-$15 Million as of 2024. He has earned around </span><span style="font-weight: 400">$14,300,000 from his UFC career. </span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">His biggest payout during his light heavyweight days was for his rematch with Daniel Cormier at UFC 217 which was around $1,830,000. That number nearly doubled for his heavyweight debut against Ciryl Gane at UFC 285 in March 2023. Jones earned a $2M base salary and $1.45M PPV share along with other bonuses to secure a paycheck worth a reported $3,542,000. Jones had also signed a new contract ahead of his heavyweight debut, which saw his base salary go from six digits to $2M at UFC 285.</span>
<h2 style="text-align: left"><b>Jon Jones' career timeline</b></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400">Jones was a stand-out wrestler during high school. He even got his moniker, ‘Bones’ during his school days, owing to his slim frame. </span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">On August 9, 2008, Jon Jones made his UFC debut at UFC 87 facing <strong>Andre Gusmão</strong>, at the short notice of two weeks. In over a year and a quarter, Jones placed himself as an undefeated fighter with a perfect record of 9-0, until he fought <strong>Matt Hamil</strong> in December 2009, who handed Jones his first-ever loss. </span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">However, that served as the one and only loss ‘Bones’ has, and that too due to disqualification. Two years later, Jones faced Mauricio ‘Shogun’ Rua as a replacement for his training partner Rashad Evans who couldn’t fight on the scheduled mark owing to his knee injury. Jones defeated Rua by TKO in 3rd round and became the youngest-ever UFC champion at the age of 23.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">However, Jon Jones’ run in the UFC hasn’t been all glamorous and smooth. He has been suspended several times, given his controversial life outside the Octagon. Jones was expected to defend his title in May 2015 against <strong>Anthony Johnson</strong> at UFC 187 but was stripped of his title on April 28 in connection to his hit-and-run case where he allegedly crashed a pregnant woman and fled away from the scene. </span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">Then, in 2016, when his rematch with <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/daniel-cormier/"><strong>Daniel Cormier</strong></a> was supposed to take place at UFC 200, Jones was removed from the bout by USADA for a potential doping violation and was suspended for one year. Two days after the announcement, Jones was stripped of his interim title, too.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">The Daniel Cormier rematch took place in 2017 instead, where Jon Jones defeated Cormier and re-captured the UFC Light Heavyweight Title. However, that win was short-lived, as USADA flagged Jones with a doping violation yet again. This forced the decision to be converted to no contest. As a result, the title was handed back to Daniel Cormier.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">Jon Jones then made a return in 2018 against <strong>Alexander Gustafsson</strong> for the vacant UFC Light Heavyweight Championship and won the bout via a 3rd round TKO. And from 2018 to 2020, Jones had a good run in the UFC, having 4 fights and winning all of them, until he got into a disagreement with Dana White in 2020.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">After a disagreement with White, Jon Jones vacated the UFC Light Heavyweight Championship and expressed his desire to move up to the heavyweight division and fight Francis Ngannou. However, according to Dana White, Jones asked for a sum on par with what <strong>Deontay Wilder</strong> made for his rematch with <strong>Tyson Fury</strong>, suggesting a paycheck of around $25 million-$30 million. After all the back and forth and a hiatus of over 3 years, Jon Jones made his heavyweight debut at UFC 285 against <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/ciryl-gane/"><strong>Ciryl Gane</strong></a> for the vacant title.</span>
<h2 style="text-align: left"><b>Jon Jones' Injury</b></h2>
Jon Jones' first-ever heavyweight title defense was set to be a legacy battle against two-tie heavyweight champion Stip Miocic. The event would have headlined the 2023 November PPV, UFC 295, at the Madison Square Garden. Unlucky for Jones, he tore his pectoral tendon in training in October, a few weeks out from the fight. Further tests showed that the UFC champion would require surgery and be out for at least eight months.

Dana White announced the same via social media and pit Serghei Pavlovich and Tom Aspinall for an interim heavyweight title fight at UFC 295 as replacement. But the UFC boss never dropped the idea of Jones vs. Miocic and their fight has now been rescheduled for UFC 309 in November at Madison Square Garden.
<h2 style="text-align: left"><b>Jon Jones contract</b></h2>
When Dana White announced Jon Jones' return with a heavyweight debut, he mentioned one other thing. At the UFC Vegas 67 post-fight press conference, the UFC CEO said Jones had signed an eight-fight deal in a new contract with the UFC. This meant Jones would likely finish his fighting career under Dana White's promotion.

The new contract also saw Jones earning a reported $2M as base salary on his return. His previous base salary was estimated to be in the ballpark of $500K. What's even more interesting was that Dana White jumped at an opportunity to cross-promote an MMA fight between Jon Jones and Tyson Fury, something he was not entertaining before. In fact, the pair even had a tiff over Jon Jones asking for boxing money (8-figure paychecks) to fight Francis Ngannou while the latter was the heavyweight champion.
<h2 style="text-align: left"><b>Jon Jones's partnerships and endorsements</b></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400">Jones had a number of deals with major brands such as Reebok, Nike, GAT Supplements, Monster Energy, and Gatorade.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">Reebok terminated the deal with ‘Bones’ after his hit-and-run case. Similarly, </span><span style="font-weight: 400">Nike’s deal has been officially terminated after Jones’ brawl with Daniel Cormier. However, Jones maintained that Nike didn’t drop him. In fact, they wanted to keep him on board for the remainder of the contract but it was his decision to discontinue, and hence, he respectfully declined the deal.</span>
