In a recent social media post, UFC heavyweight champion Jon Jones informed the world that he is back in the gym after his long recovery. Last year, Jones suffered a pectoral tear while training for a fight. And now everyone is waiting for the answer of this question: When Will We See Jon Jones in the UFC?
After that, he spent the good part of a year away from the gym and the UFC. He was seen travelling around the world, doing PR appearances in Australia and Asia. Now, he posted a picture of Instagram announcing his return to training.

When Will Jon Jones Return to the UFC?
As per some medical reports, the average time of recovery for a pectoral tear can be up to 6 months. If these claims are true and based on his post, Jones is now fully healed and can continue his regular training. Optimistically we can see Jones back in the ring by the end of this year.
Once again, John Jones has become Dana White’s biggest problem. However, this time it is not for drugs or any other legal issues but his unavailability. The three-time light heavyweight champion has struggled to stay active in recent years, with just two fights since 2020. And Jones’ absence has put the UFC heavyweight division on hold with interim champion, Tom Aspinall waiting eagerly to fight Jon Jones.
