There is no proof that he dodged him blatantly. But logic would point to the number of genuine challengers Jones managed to avoid in favour of inferior fringe level contenders throughout his reign at P4P King.
Why wouldnt Warren send Joe to fight him? A loss to a guy people were proclaiming as the best of all time wouldnt exactly end Joe's career now, would it?
A loss for Jones to some "unknown stay-at-home Euro fighter" in his own back yard would've been devestating. Jones weighed up the risk/reward factor and didnt like the results.
