Has Jon Jones recovered? A recent video is circulating across social media where it can be seen that Jones is having the time of his life with the Rugby players. This video of Jones has sparked a debate among the UFC community and seems like Dana white has taken cognizance of the situation.

The heavyweight champion of the world, Jon Jones suffered a bad pectoral injury just before his fight against Stipe Miocic at the UFC 295 event. Since then, Jones has been out on action. ‘Bones’ through an Instagram video asserted that he would be out for months due to the surgery “I’m out for months because of this pec surgery.” However, the recent video exposes a new saga. Let us chime in to see White’s reaction to it.

Did Jon Jones recover? Dana White shocked

Jon Jones shared a video of himself having some sparring session with the Rugby players in Australia. In the video, Jon can be witnessed tackling the heavy Rugby players with ease. This incident occurred shortly after his surgery due to which he had to withdraw from fighting altogether. The UFC CEO, Dana White seems to be having no recollection of this incident.

At the recent Power Slap 6 presser, a reporter asked White about Jones’s tackling video, and to everyone’s surprise White had no idea about anything related to Jones being in Australia. “I don’t know nothing about this, “said White. The reporter further explained that Jones was seemingly not suffering from any pain to which White stated that he would be happy if Jones had recovered. “That sounds good I’m happy to hear that I know nothing about this.”

The heavyweight division is in the doldrums right now. To summarise, Jon Jones is out of action and he has not yet relinquished his title, Stipe Miocic wants no one except Jones, and the interim heavyweight champion, Tom Aspinall is waiting for both Jones and Miocic to respond to his challenge but neither of them is willing to fight the new talent. This sad state of the division is giving Dana White nightmares. Jones’s comeback is highly awaited by the UFC CEO.

However, despite everything it seems like Dana White has not left Jon Jones out of his equation as of now. The heavyweight champ recently revealed that he was offered a fight at the UFC 300.

Jones was offered a spot at the UFC 300?

UFC 300 still has two spots. In the main event as well as a fight in the middle as per the UFC CEO and seems like Dana White is trying his ultimate best to bring every big fighter under the same card. Recently, Jones, emphasized that he was approached by one of the UFC’s insiders, Hunter Campbell. 

In a conversation with Submission Radio, Jones said “I got a call from Hunter Campbell. He said, “Jon, I know it’s only nine weeks away, but if there’s any chance you’re feeling up to it, it would be awesome news for the community that you’re coming back and headlining one of the biggest events ever.” And, as honored as I am for the opportunity, I just don’t think I’ll be ready.”

Jon Jones is arguably one of the most influential stars in the UFC and to see him fight is a treat for many fans. Dana White might have thought that Jones has recovered but the reality is different. However, the recent Rugby tackle by the heavyweight champion tells a different story or perhaps it doesn’t reveal the whole story just yet!
