The former UFC light heavyweight champion Jon Jones and his ex-fiancée have reconciled following their recent breakup. As it stands, Jones is slated to face former interim heavyweight champion Ciryl Gane for the vacant heavyweight belt at UFC 285 this Saturday, marking his highly anticipated return to the octagon after a lengthy three-year hiatus that saw him relinquish his light heavyweight title to focus on his foray into the heavyweight division.
Unfortunately, Jones’ time away from the sport was not without its share of legal woes. During his sabbatical, the fighter found himself in hot water after an alleged domestic violence incident in Las Vegas involving his then-fiancée, Jessie Moses. Although Jones was able to get a battery charge against him dropped, he was still required to pay a fine for damaging a police vehicle during his detainment.
In the wake of the incident, Jones publicly announced that he and Moses had parted ways but would continue to co-parent their children. However, as of late, there have been murmurs of a potential reconciliation between the two.
The stakes are high as Jones prepares to take on Gane in what promises to be an electrifying showdown for the heavyweight title. Only time will tell what the future holds for the former champ and his ex.
Jones Hints at Repairing a Long-Standing Relationship Before UFC 285
In a recent social media update, Jon Jones capped off his latest fight camp by sending shoutouts to his trusted inner circle, while also giving a special mention to his alleged romantic partner. This surprise revelation has the MMA world buzzing with speculation about how this personal development might impact his upcoming performance at UFC 285. With so many unknown variables in play, it’s safe to say that fight fans everywhere will be eagerly awaiting Jones’ next move.
“First and foremost my beautiful fiancé, my family, the prayer warriors, coaches, trainers, business partners, the team, the fans. Couldn’t have made it this far without you, you all know who you are.”
In the latest development concerning Jon Jones, it remains unclear whether the former UFC light heavyweight champion is rekindling his relationship with longtime partner Jessie Moses or embarking on a brand new romance.
Jones has not fought since a win over Dominick Reyes at UFC 247, where many believed Reyes had done enough to win. The decision was contentious enough that Jones eventually vacated his belt a few months later. Despite this, Jones has already secured his place in the UFC Hall of Fame, a feat he accomplished as an individual fighter.
However, with Jones now focused on the heavyweight division, a victory over rising star Ciryl Gane would significantly bolster his argument for being the greatest fighter in UFC history. As he prepares to step back into the Octagon, Jones appears to be in high spirits, and rumors are swirling that he may have patched things up with his longtime partner.
