Former UFC light-heavyweight champion, Jon Jones, relinquished his belt last year in preparation for a move up to the heavyweight division. ‘Bones’ has dominated the 205 lbs division of the UFC for over a decade and has beaten legends and up-and-comers alike.

However, his recent performances have been lackluster compared to his very high standards. Jones has pointed out the lack of motivation as the primary reason for that. And he believes a move up to the heavyweights will reignite the fire in him again. He is currently bulking up to make himself ready for his debut in his new division.

Currently, he is certainly looking to add a considerable amount of muscle mass to his tall but lanky frame.

In a recent video posted on his Instagram, ‘Bones‘ is practicing the lockout movement in his deadlift. He wrote, “working my lockout, got to have some power in those hips.”

Those heavy lifts he is doing are insane too, and they show his scary strength and his dedication to mold his frame into that of a heavyweight. Hence, the heavyweights better take notice.

Who should Jon Jones face in his debut in the heavyweight division?

There is little debate that Jones deserves to fight for the belt upon his debut in the heavyweight division. Champion Stipe Miocic is set to defend his throne in a rematch against Francis Ngannou at UFC 260. UFC President Dana White has indicated that ‘Bones’ will fight the eventual winner of that fight later this year.

The second belt in that weight class will solidify his status as the greatest MMA fighter of all time. But, one can argue that he has already achieved that feat already with his tremendous career. An added motivation for ‘Bones’ will be to reclaim his status as the pound-for-pound best in the UFC.
