A UFC insider recently recalled photobombing 50 Cent and Jon Jones and shared his thoughts on the situation. He noted that it wasn't his intention, which made for an awkward encounter.
Jones generates plenty of attention, especially considering his reputation as undoubtedly being one of the greatest fighters in MMA history. With that reputation comes fanfare among other celebrities and 50 Cent was among them as he once asked the heavyweight champion for a photo.
During the latest episode of ESPN Good Guy / Bad Guy, UFC insider Chael Sonnen recalled 50 Cent asking Jones to take the photo and that the latter told him to join in. Sonnen mentioned that it was a socially awkward scenario that played out and somewhat embarrassing:
"Jon recognized the social awkwardness, he's like, 'Oh, Chael, get over here'. So I jump in there, I know I don't belong. 50 did not ask me for my picture. 50 puts it out on social media and said, 'I was happy to meet Jones, this other guy photobombed my picture'. I was so embarrassed. Well, because it's the truth that hurts. That's exactly what happened. I knew he didn't ask me to be there and I'm just hanging there kind of leaning their heads together and I'm out."
