Jon Jones has given his thoughts on recent training footage of Stipe Miocic ahead of their seemingly inevitable title fight.
As we know, Jon Jones is the undisputed heavyweight champion in the UFC. While logic would dictate he’ll fight interim champion Tom Aspinall next, that’s not the direction he’s heading in. Instead, he’s opting for a legacy fight against former king Stipe Miocic.
While many have criticized that decision, there’s no denying that it’s a fascinating fight. Stipe is the greatest heavyweight of all time, whereas Jon is known by many as the overall GOAT in the sport of mixed martial arts.
Miocic recently released some training footage ahead of their contest, which is expected to happen later this year. Now, ‘Bones’ has responded and given his view after a fan claimed that the former champion didn’t look great.

I’m not a historian of war or anything, but I have learned a thing or two in my day. A big part of combat strategy is timing, and deception. To make a long story short, if your opponent appears weak, prepare even harder. Complacency is the greatest enemy to a fighter like myself. https://t.co/5IYZJCR8Lv
