The former Tamba Bay quarterback is a long-term friend of UFC president Dana White and is appropriating his free time in the activities he missed during his tight schedule of NFL days. The 45-year-old witnessed the proceeding at UFC 285 up close as the fight card promised fireworks and fast paced-action. Notably, the stacked card headlined by Jon Jones taking on Ciryl Gane attracted the eyeballs as ‘Bones’ endeavored to cement his legacy.

Further, the gold at 265 lbs also offered him the opportunity to reclaim his pound-for-pound king title. Jones proved critical in the match as he recaptured the UFC gold and now sits at the top of the heavyweight division.
