New Yorker Jon Jones will enjoy the home field advantage when he challenges UFC light heavyweight champ Mauricio “Shogun” Rua at UFC 128 in New Jersey. Here he is making an appearance on the local Fox News affiliate. Ever wonder where Jones got the nickname “Bones”? Just watch and see…
“I feel (this fight) is a blessing in disguise. I started my training camp in great shape. My timing is already great, everything is great. I feel as if everything happens for a reason and I’ll be ready.”
“I have a very unpredictable style; it’s really hard to tell where I’m coming from. Between the strikes I decide to use and my strategy and tactics are always extremely different each fight. So I think that’s my biggest advantage, is the fact that I’m the new guy in the sport and people just can’t figure me out yet.”
Jon Jones shows Duke Castiglione how he is going to win on Saturday night at the 4:09 min mark. (with a rear naked choke)
