Joe Jonas jokes his brothers are training for Hemsworth UFC bout

JOE Jonas has joked the Jonas Brothers are training for a UFC fight against the Hemsworths.

The trio are set to release their memoir Blood later this year, and Joe claimed the book's title doesn’t actually refer to their family ties, but rather a potential scrap with Liam, Chris and Luke.

Appearing alongside his brothers

Kevin and Nick on The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon, he quipped: “Actually, that’s not the reason.

“We’re gonna take note from all the Youtubers that are having these boxing matches and we’re gonna have a big UFC match.

“It’s gonna be us versus the Hemsworth brothers. The Hemsworths haven’t emailed us back yet, but it’s gonna be big.” His siblings didn’t seem to be on board with the tongue-incheek suggestion, particularly with Chris Hemsworth portraying Thor in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Kevin laughed: “Did you just say it's gonna be us against Thor?”

And Fallon suggested they could try to find some lesser-known Hemsworth brothers.

He teased: “Maybe there's a couple of Hemsworths out there that we don't know of that you could maybe challenge or something.”

Joe joked: “Ones who are a little bit closer to our height as well.”

The Sucker hitmakers also opened up on life during lockdown as they wait to get back on the road, and Kevin admitted his daughters Alena, 7, and 4-year-old Valentina – whom he has with wife Danielle Jonas – have started recognising their dad and uncles from the Disney Channel.

He said: “They see us as the people they saw on Hannah Montana in that one episode we did with her. They’re completely obsessed with that show now and they think we're those people. Every day.”
