Long-time coach, Greg Jackson has weighed in on the ongoing debate of a fight between his student, Jon Jones and interim gold holder, Tom Aspinall — claiming the Rochester native could stop fighting as soon as he likes and would be completely fine with how his career played out.
Jon Jones, a current heavyweight champion, is slated to return to action next month in the main event of UFC 309 at Madison Square Garden, taking on former two-time champion, Stipe Miocic in his return to action in his native New York.
Sidelined since he won the vacant heavyweight crown back in March of last year, Jon Jones, a former two-time undisputed light heavyweight kingpin and pound-for-pound number one, managed to scoop the gold with a dominant opening round guillotine choke win over French contender, Ciryl Gane.
