In the next few days, Jon Jones will return to the UFC arena after 3 years of competition. He will compete for the Heavyweight weight championship to meet Ciryl Gane. But contrary to the initial prediction, Jones's ability to win seemed to be getting lower and lower. The reason is because he may be injured and have not fully recovered.
In recent days, Jon Jones mainly practiced at the pool. From the perspective of former boxer Chael Sonnen, this is a sign that Jones may be injured, and have to practice recovery to reach the minimum level to compete.
“Jon Jones's bones and joints are very weak, and that's why he had to practice at the pool,” Sonnen wrote on his personal page. The boxer who had confronted Jones in the past added: “The lesson plan in the swimming pool is only for martial artists, so Jones is likely to be recovering.
One of the reasons why Jones was injured could come from the fact that the boxer had to be balanced in a short time. Previously, Jones only played in the Light Heavyweight weight class. But in the latest contract signed with UFC, he played the weight of Heavyweight and had to spread quite a lot.
Despite having to play, Jones's legs were almost no further development. The latest image taken Jones shows that he has very small legs compared to the current physique. However, Jones still had to play because the contract he signed with UFC was too attractive, including 8 matches and the remuneration of millions of dollars.
