Henry Cejudo: As good as Jon Jones is, he’s still getting better – ‘and that’s just scary’
Henry Cejudo is impressed with Jon Jones’ ability to keep growing his skills.
Former light heavyweight king Jones widely is considered one of the greatest fighters of all time and has just one blemish on his resume: a disqualification loss to Matt Hamill in 2009 in a fight he was dominating.
Jones (26-1 MMA, 20-1 UFC) recently has been working with former UFC dual-champion Cejudo in Arizona in preparation for his heavyweight debut, and Cejudo says he’s only getting better.
“(I’m) just reflecting on the last few days that I had with Jones. Jones is a student of the game,” Cejudo said on his YouTube channel. “You can teach him one thing, (and) he comes back the next day and he almost becomes flawless. It’s crazy to see the potential of how great and how good Jones could still become. He’s a man who has the God-given ability, and when you teach a guy who has ability (and) technique that has discipline like himself and is willing to learn, I mean that’s what equals a straight GOAT status. That’s what puts Jon Jones in a league of his own.
“As good as Jon Jones is, he’s still getting better, and that’s just scary.”
After heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou parted ways with the UFC, Jones will face Ciryl Gane (11-1 MMA, 8-1 UFC) for the vacant title in the UFC 285 main event March 4 at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.
