Former UFC light heavyweight champion Jon Jones looks jacked in a new Instagram photo.
Jon Jones has been returning to the spotlight bit by bit since the UFC lifted his suspension from a hit and run incident. It looks like Jones has been busy in the gym since then has gotten quite jacked in his time away.
Check it out for yourself, via his Instagram:
Of course the skeptical fans will now be questioning the legitimacy of these “gains.” Can you blame them though?
With the UFC’s more stringent policy for testing athletes under their drug testing protocols, surely Jones wouldn’t have made a mistake like taking performance enhancing drugs. Even with his history of incidents, he deserves the benefit of the doubt.
Jones was stripped of the title and Daniel Cormier won the vacated strap in May, and defended it against Alexander Gustafsson at UFC 192.
It is presumed that Cormier will defend his belt against Jones next, Cormier wanting a break before fighting again and Dana White saying Jones would get an immediate title shot when he returns.
Jones looks reinvigorated though, and he could be an even bigger monster in the octagon when he returns. How his weight cutting to get from 228 pounds down to 205 has yet to be seen though, that could be a hurdle for the former champ.
