While speaking to The Schmo, Urijah Faber talked about Jon Jones vs Stipe Miocic’s potential fight. Faber gave huge props to Jones for looking like a beast ahead of his return.
“I mean, Jon Jones has been looking like a beast at that weight. He’s an amazing athlete, he’s arguably the best fighter of all time – give or take the controversies [or] whatever you think about that. You know, if he’s as big as he seems to be on his posts and whatnot, I think weighing 250 [pounds] or something. Yeah, we got to go with Jonny ‘Bones’ Jones on that one.”
