Following his successful title defense at UFC 247, Jon Jones vacated his light heavyweight gold and moved to the heavyweight division of UFC. Ever since then, fight fans have been waiting for his return to the octagon.

However, now it seems like the former lightweight champion will be in action soon. Recently ‘Bones’ was seen honing his skills with the former two-division champion and one of the best fighters, Henry Cejudo.

‘The Messenger’ took to his official Instagram account to share a glimpse of training with the former light heavyweight. He wrote in the caption, “What do you get when you get the Greatest Combat Athlete of all time. And the Greatest Mix Martial Artist of all time. Just wait and watch …@jonnyBones”

Even though ‘Bones’ is one of the greatest fighters in mixed martial arts, training with Cejudo’s assistance will surely add some more skills to his arsenal.

Henry Cejudo (16-2) is considered one of the greatest UFC fighters to enter the octagon. He is an Olympic gold medalist in wrestling. The 34-year-old was at the pinnacle of two divisions during his time in UFC.

However, he retired from UFC after his successful title defense at UFC 249. Interestingly, ‘The Messenger’ hasn’t left the sport completely. He is training a few UFC fighters for the big fights of their career.
