UFC light heavyweight champion Jon Jones told ESPN.com on Friday that he does not want to have a rematch with Lyoto Machida.

Lyoto Machida earned a second title shot by defeating Ryan Bader with a one shot knockout at UFC on Fox 4. Dana White confirmed, after the match, that Machida had the more impressive performance instead of Mauricio Rua and would take on Jon Jones once again.

"I don't want to fight Lyoto Machida," Jones said. "He was my lowest pay-per-view draw of last year.

"No one wants to see me fight Lyoto Machida. I don't want to fight Lyoto again. Lyoto is high risk and low reward.

"He's a tough fighter, but no one wants to buy that fight."

"Between (Mauricio) Shogun (Rua), (Quinton) Rampage (Jackson) and Rashad (Evans), Lyoto was my lowest draw. Why would I want to fight someone where it's a lose-lose situation? "I won't make money on it. And he's a tricky fighter."

In their first bout, Jones submitted Machida on with a second-round standing guillotine at UFC 140.

When asked if he will agree to fight Machida again if asked by UFC officials to do so, Jones was noncommittal.

"I don't even know," Jones said. "I don't know how to answer that right now."

Jones is set to face Dan Henderson at UFC 151, a match that he is heavily favored to win.

"I don't think it's appropriate to be talking about fighting anybody but Dan Henderson," Jones said. "I'm clearly focused on Dan Henderson. I'm not overlooking Dan."
