Jon Jones 100% Healthy Says White
“[Jones is] good. He’s 100 percent. I talked to him [on Saturday], and he said he feels great. The only thing that’s sore on him is his calf. It’s a little sore. I’d like to give these guys time to rest and give them a little break, so we’ll see what happens.”
UFC president Dana White confirmed to the media during the UFC on Versus 6 post-fight press conference that his light-heavyweight champion is in fact healthy.
Following his UFC 135 victory over Rampage Jackson we reported that the Colorado Athletic commission had suspended Jon Jones for six-months. However, according to White it doesn’t appear that the champ will be out for an extended period of time after all and we may get that grudge match between Rashad Evans and Jones sooner than later.
Good news for Jones fans!

Is it just me, or does Jones seem a little bit fruity?
Something’s a little off, but either way that fruitcake can fight!
Haha!
Within a week or 2 he is going to need “hand surgery” watch him duck rashad twice!
Get off Rashad’s nuts, will ya?
Get off my nuts will ya?
duck a guy who couldnt even defend his belt once? bitchh please.
yeah dude I get the same vide from the guy.
Long live King Jone’s!!!
What song did El Cucuy come out to @ 135??
I am confused as to why the Athletic Commission suspended him for six months anyways? Rampage, the loser of the bout got far less a suspension.
I thought Jones broke his hand again? Idk I guess not.
Worst case scenario(broken bones, torn ligaments) pending xrays/mri’s because he had foot/arm injuries. Obviously these injuries aren’t bad so he will be cleared by doctors to train in due time.
He better be a 100% when he fights Evans. MAN THATS GOING TO BE A GOOD FIGHT
jon jones gonna tko rashad in round 1.
more than likely yea he will
Attitudes don’t have anything to do with a fighter’s skill set, and Jones will K Rashad TFO on his way to tossing Hendo like no one else has embarassed him! Im trying to see who is after Hendo, maybe that fighter could end the reign of Jon Jones. PENN NATION!!!!!!!
machida isthe only possoble candidate to end jon jones
