Jon Jones Looks Sharp During Sparring Session Ahead Of UFC 285

Jon Jones is considered by many fans to be one of the greatest fighters in the history of the UFC. In 2021, Jones announced his intention to return to the octagon and revealed that he has a specific target in mind for his comeback fight. In fact, he looked very good during a recent sparring session.

Jones has also been on a mission to get the kind of pay that he truly deserves. ‘Bones’ had planned on making his return to the UFC last year, but many things delayed his triumphant comeback.

As fans know by now, Jon Jones is now set to square off against Ciryl Gane for the now-vacant UFC heavyweight title at UFC 285 in March. The fight announcement was followed by the news that Jon Jones signed an eight-fight deal with the UFC.

Excitement among Jon Jones’ fans is mounting as they have been treated to training footage of the former light heavyweight champion in preparation for his highly anticipated return to the octagon.

Despite a lengthy absence, it appears that Jones has not lost any of his speed or skill, much to the delight of his fans. In recent footage, Jones looked extremely sharp for his weight class, effortlessly hitting the pads and showing glimpses of the spectacular form that characterized his previous light-heavyweight run. His sparring partner was clearly no match for his prowess, leaving fans eager to see what Jones can accomplish once he is back in the ring for real.

Jones teased MMA fans about a move to heavyweight for over ten years, and now that will finally become a reality. We will have to wait and see whether Jon Jones will end up defeating Gane to become the new UFC Heavyweight Champion in March.
