Jon Jones has built a legendary legacy with a record of 11 title defenses, never being defeated by decision or finish, a 27-1 overall record, and a spot on every MMA fan’s GOAT list. He is UFC Boss Dana White’s favorite fighter, thanks to all these accomplishments. Despite all these accomplishments, he continues to face accusations from fans regarding one major issue: cheating and using PEDs to stay on top. Once again, this conversation flared up when Jones posted a photo of his chiseled six-pack ahead of the Stipe Miocic fight. Fans quickly filled the comments with claims of him being a cheater and ridiculing him.
A few months back, the UFC champ struggled with injuries and was visibly out of shape, with his belly showing. But now, just a few weeks before he defends his heavyweight title against Miocic, thanks to his physique, fans are worried about the Stipe. In his recent Instagram story, ‘Bones’ shared a photo highlighting his impressive six-pack abs. Jones has been sharing his intense workouts for a while now, but it didn’t take long for it to go viral on the internet. Fans couldn’t help but chatter about whether he was juiced up again. Here’s how they reacted.
One fan insists that Jones achieved his six-pack through illegal means.
Meanwhile, one fan thought Jones wrote “45 more drugs” instead of “45 more days.”
One fan ridiculed the UFC champ, labeling him a drug cheat.

One fan mocked Jones for fighting Stipe Miocic, suggesting that Miocic is too old for the matchup.

Dana White Says Francis Ngannou Was Offered A Bigger Paycheck To Fight Jon Jones Than In Boxing
Every now and then, there’s chatter about Ngannou leaving the UFC to chase a big paycheck in boxing. Recently, when UFC boss White was pressed on the topic, he claimed that people are making their own assumptions. He stated that if ‘The Predator’ had stayed with the company, he would have earned more fighting Jones than he did in boxing.
He says, “I don’t care what everybody says, doesn’t matter to me. But that’s a fact. He was offered more money. Because I know, I know the real numbers. I know the real numbers.”
There’s no doubt that Jones vs. Ngannou is the ultimate dream fight for UFC fans. It would have certainly brought in massive paychecks, but it’s surprising to realize that Ngannou earned more from just one boxing match than from his entire career. This raises doubts about those claims and leaves us imagining what could have been.
