Well, let me tell you, that Jon Jones, he’s a big fella now. I heard he’s been eatin’ good, real good. He used to be skinnier, but now, hoo boy, he’s put on some pounds. They say he’s up to 255 pounds! Can you believe that? That’s a lot of weight, like, two of me, I reckon. It’s for this UFC thing, some kinda fighting, not like the old days of just wrestling in the barn.
I remember when he was just a young’un, all bones and elbows. I heard he was 21 when he started this UFC stuff, and he did fightin’ and winnin’ all the time. He was a skinny one, though, back then. You know, I hear he’s 37 now. Time sure does fly when you are having fun, huh? And I hear he is 6-foot-4. Well, that’s a tall boy. He sure grew up fast.
They call him “Bones.” Why “Bones,” you ask? Well, I don’t rightly know, maybe ’cause he was so skinny at first. Maybe that was a joke or somethin’. But he ain’t skinny no more! He’s been liftin’ and eatin’, that’s for sure. This is for a fight, they said, against another big guy.
- Jon Jones Weight: 255 lbs, some say 250, some say 248, big anyway
- Jon Jones Age: 37, time flies
- Jon Jones Height: 6-foot-4, that’s a tall man
They call it “heavyweight” now. Heavyweight Jon Jones. Sounds important, doesn’t it? He’s definitely heavy now, that’s for sure. It’s a big deal. He used to be lighter, around, I don’t know, maybe 205 pounds, I heard. But he’s been eatin’ his Wheaties, I guess! It’s a whole different thing than what he used to do. Before it was light heavyweight, now it is heavyweight. And I heard, he used to weigh 235, but that was a while ago.
He’s got a fight comin’ up, they say. November 16th, in New York. Fancy, huh? New York! That’s a long way from here. I don’t know how to get to New York, but I know it is very far. And it is gonna be on the TV, this fight, so they tell me. We’ll have to see what all the fuss is about. He’s fightin’ a fella named Stipe… something. Another big guy, I bet.
They say Jon Jones is the “pound-for-pound” king. I don’t know what that means, exactly, sounds silly. I don’t know why they have to make things so confusing. But it sounds like he’s good, real good at this fightin’ thing. And he’s gettin’ paid good money for it, too. They say he’s a millionaire! Imagine that. He used to be a skinny kid in high school, wrasslin’ and such, just like my grandson. He can make a lot of money in this UFC stuff, more than any of us, I think. I hear he can make 5 or 10 million for just one fight. I cannot imagine having that much money.
This Jon Jones fella, he’s all over the news, or so they say. Got his picture everywhere. He is famous, I guess. It’s a crazy world we live in, ain’t it? A skinny kid can grow up to be a big, strong, famous fighter. And all that money! Makes my head spin. They say he is ready for UFC 309 or something like that. I do not know what that means, but I hope he wins.
So, yeah, Jon Jones weight, that’s the big news. He’s a big boy now, that’s for sure. 255 pounds, give or take. He’s ready to rumble, as they say. We’ll see what happens in November. Maybe I’ll even watch it on the TV, if I can figure out how to work that contraption. It’s all very excitin’, I suppose. This whole fightin’ business. He’s gonna be fightin’ a big guy named Stipe. And they say this Jon Jones is good at fightin’, so I hope he don’t get hurt. I am just an old lady, I don’t know much about this fightin’, I just hope no one gets hurt too bad.
I heard someone said Jon Jones weight is 248 lbs. 248? That’s a lot! I don’t know what is true anymore. He is definitely big, that is for sure. It is for his fight with this guy, Ciryl, I think that is his name. All these names are so difficult to remember. But I guess, as long as he is winning these fights, it does not matter.
Anyway, I think that’s all I know about this Jon Jones weight thing. He is big now. That is all that matters, I think. Hope this helps you understand it more. It is a lot to remember.
