Jon Jones opens up about his time off, his beef with Daniel Cormier, sex pills and much more <\/strong><\/p>\n

Former UFC light heavyweight champion Jon “Bones” Jones spoke to the media today in Buffalo, New York where he discussed a number of different topics including how his life has been over the past year without fighting in the UFC.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe time off has been great. I think you don\u2019t really appreciate what you have until you don\u2019t have it anymore. So this last year has given me a lot of time to just realize how great my life was and how bad I want it back. So yea, I have spent a lot of time with my family and just training. I have been doing a whole bunch of jiu jitsu and wrestling. I feel great. Well preserved and well rested. I\u2019m ready to get back to kicking ass.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Jones was asked if he expects to be given a title shot when he returns to the octagon, which could possibly take place this July.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have no expectations right now. I haven\u2019t really spoken to the UFC about any possible fights or match-ups. I\u2019m just doing my part by being ready to go.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Jones confirmed that he will be in attendance at UFC 210 and detailed his feelings about watching two men fight for a belt which he never really lost.<\/p>\n

\u201cI will be there Saturday night. I haven\u2019t really thought about how I will feel. I am sure I will be pumped up. I will probably just be majorly motivated and inspired to get back in the gym and get back what is mine.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Jones was then asked if he had heard Daniel Cormier\u2019s warning to not step into the octagon on Saturday night.<\/p>\n

\u201cI heard about it. I haven\u2019t seen it for myself. I think he said something like if I came into the octagon it wouldn\u2019t be pretty or something like that. I should just see what he meant by that and go in there. But really, I have no intentions of going in there and harassing the guy. I want him to enjoy his moment. His last moments with the belt.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

\"Jon<\/p>\n

Jon believes that everything happens for a reason and is eager to showcase some of his new MMA skills in future bouts against strikers like Anthony Johnson or Jimi Manuwa.<\/p>\n

\u201cNo, I think everything happens for a reason. I have worked extensively on my wrestling and my jiu jitsu. Sooner or later I am going to be fighting Anthony Johnson or Jimi Manuwa. Two guys who are phenomenal strikers. I\u2019m sure I can strike with the best of them. But the smart strategy in those kind of fights would be to get those guys to the ground and put them in a world of hurt. There is no secret that when those fights happen, that will be my strategy.\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n

Jones stated that he has been dedicating most of his time to BJJ and that it will show when he returns to the cage.<\/p>\n

\u201cI believe I will be submitting the shit out of a lot of different people.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

As for sex pills, which caused Jones to get flagged by USADA previously, \u201cBones\u201d had the following to say.<\/p>\n

\u201cI highly recommend it guys. It\u2019s awesome!\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
