Jon Jones is ‘getting fat for no reason’ - Adesanya slams ‘Bones’ UFC heavyweight aspirations

UFC middleweight champion Israel Adesanya was among the guests on Ariel Helwani’s first episode of the new look The MMA Hour. With Helwani ‘The Last Stylebender’ talked about one of his favourite targets for ridicule: Jon Jones.

“I don’t think we’re ever going to see Jon Jones fight at heavyweight,” he said (ht MMA Fighting). “Fuck, he’s been saying this since 2013. You either get it done or you don’t.”

Jones vacated his UFC light heavyweight title last year and stated his intention to join the promotion’s heavyweight ranks.
