Jon Jones handled a number of of his followers to some new swag on the mall.
Whether or not you’re keen on him or hate him — and there are many causes to land on both aspect of the fence — the reigning undisputed UFC heavyweight world champion has a popularity for being cordial with followers, whether or not it’s out in public or at an occasion.
Not too long ago, ‘Bones’ shared a video of him performing some purchasing at a neighborhood mall when a bunch of Gen Z’ers got here up searching for a handout. In line with Jones, they requested the MMA icon to purchase them every a $100 shirt.
Jones agreed to foot the invoice however on one situation.
“Native Albuquerque boys have been courageous sufficient to stroll as much as me and requested me to purchase them $100 T-shirts on the mall,” Jones wrote on X. “Within the Bible, it teaches us to ask and it shell be given to you. I revered the gangster and the bravery to ask so I gave them a proposition.”
We’re undecided which passage within the bible references receiving overpriced attire for 50 pushups, however good on Jones for making these children’ day.
Now perhaps he’ll give Tom Aspinall his title combat in trade for 100 squat thrusts.
Jon Jones and Tom Aspinall put together for separate UFC heavyweight title fights
Regardless of being the undisputed heavyweight titleholder, Jon Jones seemingly has no intention of preventing present interim champion Tom Aspinall, forcing the UK-based star to change into the primary fighter in additional than a decade to defend an interim belt at UFC 304 in Manchester.
In the meantime, Jones continues to gear up for his return to the Octagon, slated for November 9 in Madison Sq. Backyard, the place he’ll presumably face consensus heavyweight GOAT Stipe Miocic, although Dana White and Co. haven’t but made an official announcement.
