Fight fans have been awaiting Jon Jones' heavyweight debut since 2020 ,when the former UFC light heavyweight champion took a sabbatical from his previous division, to move up a weight class and challenge for the greatest prize in all of MMA: the UFC heavyweight championship.This video shows some of his latest Training footage lifting heavy and preparing for a heavyweight frame.
At heavyweight, 'Bones' will not struggle as many predict he will. Instead, he will likely find a shocking degree of success for these reasons.
Jon Jones' physical stature is a genetic lottery. The MMA great stands at 6 feet 4 inches in height while boasting what remains the longest reach in UFC history with a wingspan of 84.5 inches. Thus, not only will Jones not experience a reach disadvantage against anyone, but he will enjoy a reach advantage over every single opponent he might potentially face in his new weight class.
Jon Jones is nearly impossible to take down and outright impossible to hold down for any considerable amount of time. Even Daniel Cormier, an Olympic-caliber wrestler, struggled to secure takedowns against Jones, while also conceding several takedowns to his rival. Because of his extremely long reach, Jones is able to hook his arms behind his opponent's legs even when they widen their base to defend his takedowns. His arms are simply that long.
Jon Jones has faced nearly every type of fighter there is in MMA. He's crossed paths with high-level wrestlers, brutally powerful punchers, well-rounded generalists, elusive counter-strikers, explosive kickboxers and more. No one has managed to defeat 'Bones'. Whenever fans of Khabib make their case for the Russian's greatness, Jones defenders eagerly point out that Jones has more UFC title fights than khabib has UFC fights. what are your thoughts on jon jones heavyweight debut? do you think he will succeed as a heavy weight
