Today, we revisit a few excerpts from the statements Jon Jones provided in the 2016 MMA documentary ‘The Hurt Business’. One scene showed an interviewer noting that Jon Jones’ opponent Daniel Cormier had claimed that Jones would intentionally use eye pokes during their fight.
Jones responded to this by stating:
Jon Jones aims to capture the UFC heavyweight title
Jon Jones ruled over the UFC light heavyweight division for about a decade. ‘Bones’ vacated his title in August 2020 and announced that he’d be moving up to heavyweight.
He was expected to fight for the UFC heavyweight title in his heavyweight debut. Nevertheless, a pay dispute between Jones and the UFC has delayed his return.
Furthermore, amidst the pay dispute this year, Jon Jones suggested that he’s not rushing the bulking-up process. Jones emphasized that he’ll make his heavyweight debut in 2022 when his body is fully accustomed to the new weight class.
