Jon ‘Bones’ Jones Says: “I’m the best fighter that I’ve ever been right now.”

UFC light heavyweight champion, Jon ‘Bones’ Jones, will defend his title against his challenger, the former champ, Lyoto Machida, this saturday in UFC 140. The fight will be held in the Air Canada Centre in Toronto, Ontario. He and Machida are set to headline the bout.

Jones said on The MMA Hour that he’s “the best I’ve ever been.”

“Judging on my numbers in the weight room, judging on my numbers in the cardio tests, it’s the best I’ve ever been, I’m the best fighter that I’ve ever been right now. That I got good at fighting… that changes nothing about the real world. I have changed as an athlete — I believe in my heart that I’m the best, I believe I won’t lose to Lyoto, or Rashad [Evans], or [Dan] Henderson or any of the other guys. As ‘Bones’ I’m growing and yeah I’m a little cocky and it’s important to be that way. But as Jonathan, in the real world, everyone who meets me will say I treated them with the utmost respect.”

Jones has destroyed all of his opponents and his fans expect him to do the same this weekend as he faces Machida in the octagon.
