NBA player James Johnson, having been a guest on the NBA Rookie Life podcast, made a loud statement. James expressed confidence that he can beat current UFC heavyweight champion Jon Jones.
“I think I could beat him, actually. A year of defense training - I just need defense on the ground. “I’ve been hitting with my arms and legs since I was five or six years old,” said the basketball player.
It's worth noting that Johnson is one of the NBA's most physically powerful players. He weighs 109 kg and is 201 cm tall. Moreover, he is a black belt holder in karate, his record in kickboxing is 20-0, and in MMA 7-0.
