Jones: “I like to be a person who embodies perseverance and refusal to give up.”

UFC heavyweight champion Jon Jones published a philosophical message in X, making it clear that the serious injury would not affect his attitude.

Let us remember that Jones suffered a torn pectoral muscle a few weeks before the UFC 295 tournament, where he was supposed to fight Stipe Miocic. Recovery is expected to take 6-8 months.

“If you want to make God laugh, tell him about your plans. I hate tough times, I hate challenges, but I love being a person who epitomizes perseverance and refusal to give up. I believe that even my haters have a hard time not believing me. I am not one of those who can be ignored. Better days are yet to come,” Jones wrote in X.
