Jon Jones Wants Another Four UFC Fights In 2012

[No More Sorrow]

Speaking to ESPN's Josh Gross, Jones confessed he now wants to repeat his four-fight efforts of 2011, which realistically would mean a return to action by April at the very latest.

"My goal is to finish every fight in 2012. If I do that, a lot of other things will fall into place naturally. I want to finish every opponent," Jones told ESPN.

"I've been thinking recently about trying to compete four times in the year again. I grew so much as a person that by doing that again in 2012 will just make me a better athlete.

"Originally I said I wanted to take off four or five months, but I may reconsider and come back sooner and have three or four fights this year."

I don't think thats very realistic with medical suspensions and that.

Plus, he isn't going to come out of wars with Hendo and Rashad unscathed.

 

[No More Sorrow]

Yea that's what i was thinking, especially with Hendo's right hand.

Well that was the thought when he went against Shogun and when he went against Rampage and against Machida but he came out of all of those pretty clean. The Rashad and Hendo fight though... those would do some damage to him but I think he'll still be able to bust out about 3 fights this year.

Three fights this year would be more realistic considering who his future opponents are. The fights will be tougher and he will probably take some more damage than he has in previous fights. Plus you never know what injuries may occur during a fight or during training. I would like to see him fight four times each year because he is great to watch but I don't know if it will happen.

 

[Slim]

He is definitely a guy that knows how to finish in a variety of ways. And being that type of fighter always makes him more exciting to watch.
