A story regarding Jon Jones and his pre-main event warm-up at UFC 309 has been shared by Gordon Ryan.
Among the best mixed martial artists of all time is Jon Jones. He has maintained that rank in spite of the numerous scandals he has been a part of over the years. The one thing that fans are most eager to witness at this stage of his career is an undisputed heavyweight championship bout against Tom Aspinall.
Given that Jones defeated Stipe Miocic at UFC 309, it seems like the proper battle to take on. For as long as he was in there, Jon did appear to be in good shape, but Stipe was looking much past his best, so it was a pretty one-sided battle. That being said, no one can truly predict how he will react to someone as strong and dangerous as Tom Aspinall.
It clearly appeared like Jones was taking the Miocic bout seriously. Unfortunately, “Bones” was likely very confident in his abilities to overcome the previous champion if Gordon Ryan’s narrative below is to be believed.
Ryan shares a story about Trump and Jones
“Good Jon Jones story that nobody knows,” famed grappler, Gordon Ryan, told UFC color commentator Joe Rogan. “I was cornering [Jones] for his last fight against Stipe. We found out that Trump was going to be there. Probably 20 minutes of that warm up was just him practicing the mechanics of how to do the Trump dance right.”
“We looked it up, YouTubed it, and he was practicing the Trump dance in the locker room getting ready to do it,” Ryan continued. “The best [part] is, we were all for it. We were like, ‘No, the hands gotta be a little bit higher.’ We were coaching him through it.”

For Jon Jones, this upcoming challenge of fighting Tom Aspinall will probably warrant a little bit more focus than dancing for the president.
