Follow Us
We are days away from yet another title defense by the UFC light heavyweight champion, Jon Jones. This time he takes on the unbeaten light heavyweight contender, Dominick Reyes. For Reyes, it’s a huge opportunity to be the first one to defeat Jones. As far as Jones is concerned this fight is going to be a crucial one for him.
Jon Jones is already aiming for his heavyweight debut. And undoubtedly, he would like to do that with an unbeaten record at light heavyweight. Besides that Jon Jones vs Israel Adesanya seems right around the corner. It would be a huge fight if both fighters are unbeaten until they meet each other.
The pressure is not on Jones as he has been inside the octagon with many legends and a fight with Reyes might be just another night for the light heavyweight champion. But when you are unbeaten in your career as Jones is every fight is a must-win fight.

Was honestly one of the most scariest and mentally challenging things I’ve ever done: Jon Jones
Ahead of his title fight this weekend, Jones took a tour into the wilderness to face his fear with a friend of his. Jones crawled about half a mile down into a tight cave to face his fear of claustrophobia. He described the experience as one of the scariest and mentally challenging.

“Crawled about a half mile down into a tight cave last night to look my claustrophobia in the face. The cave was pitch black, cold and unforgiving. Some of the areas we went through was so tight we had to army crawl in a single file line. The scariest thing about that was if someone were to freak out, they would be no way to turn around or escape. We crawled through tunnels that were literally just wider than our shoulders. When you are in a situation like that, your mind takes you to wild places, what happens if this rock falls? what happens if one of us gets stuck? What happens if they panic? What happens if I panic!? Are there animals/snakes living down here? None of us had cell phone reception, and none of us were professionals. But we kept moving forward anyways. Was honestly one of the most scariest and mentally challenging things I’ve ever done. I’m glad I did it, I’m learning to live on the other side of fear, God has not given us a spirit of fear. I’ve learned that often times on the other side of our insecurities and fears are great rewards. I put my mind through a test and I passed, woke up this morning a little sore but victorious”
