“Tremendous news. Guess you finally knocked some sense into her @johnnybones.” – Covington caption tweeted Jones’ now-deleted post.
Colby Covington is currently preparing to take on another friend turned enemy in the form of Jorge Masvidal. The bitter rivals are set to collide in the headliner of next month’s UFC 272 pay-per-view event on March 5th.
As for Jon Jones, the former UFC light heavyweight kingpin has not competed inside of the Octagon since defeating Dominick Reyes at UFC 247. ‘Bones’ is rumored to be making his heavyweight debut in 2022, with Stipe Miocic being named as his likely opponent.
With that being said, Covington is not so confident that Jones will ever return to MMA, let alone at heavyweight.
“He’s done, he doesn’t have the right scientist, the right juice to do anymore. He knows he’s done. He’s trying to get one more cash grab and hope that it’s so much money that he doesn’t have to do anything but I don’t think he’s ever fighting again. I just don’t see it.”
