When two of the UFC’s biggest stars of all-time decide to spar on the street, it’s something to see. Even if it just some lame playing around.
Recently Jon Jones and Anderson Silva were together in the city for an unknown reason and apparently started an impromptu training/sparring session. It looks friendly enough, but how awesome would a real fight between the two be?
Jones posted the above video on his newly created YouTube channel.
More About Jon Jones
Jones entered the UFC in August 2008 on a few weeks’ notice, won, and was rewarded with bouts against future Hall of Famer Stephan Bonnar and a UFC 100 spot against Jake O’Brien. Near effortless wins over veterans Brandon Vera and Vladimir Matyushenko followed before he dominated previously-unbeaten Ryan Bader at UFC 126. Jones’ only loss came at when a poor referee call resulted in a disqualification loss to Matt Hamill, in a fight he was by all accounts winning soundly.
After his UFC 126 win, while still inside the Octagon, Jones was offered the chance to step in for injured teammate Rashad Evans to face light heavyweight champ Shogun Rua on six weeks’ notice. Jones accepted and went on to dominate Rua as well as his subsequent opponents: Rampage Jackson, Lyoto Machida, Rashad Evans and Vitor Belfort.
