UFC Jon Jones has been spending time sharpening his hunting skills

UFC Light Heavyweight Champion Jon Jones has been working on his hunting skills during the coronavirus pandemic.

The American has a lot of free time on his hands, and apart from training and keeping fit, he is honing his skills for the hunt.

Jones had earlier taught his children how to box and dodge, but this is something that suits his killer instinct.

The UFC Champion has spoken about using a bow and arrow in the past and posted some great pictures of the same recently.

However, Jones wasn’t actually hunting animals as this was just target practice.

Jones also said that he isn’t ready to hunt animals right now, and needed more practice.

not yet, I need a lot more practice from 60to 100yrds https://t.co/kv1dgMsrq2

Planning big

While the champion still needs to work on his hunting game, that hasn’t stopped him from dreaming big.

Jones also spoke about keeping a large freezer for his kills and how he needs to work on angles etc.

Yeah that’s what I’m realizing, changes the whole game. That’s actually my main focus right now, those longer shots at different heights https://t.co/Fnc21PC7vo

The Light Heavyweight Champion was in the wrong kind of news recently. Jones was arrested for DWI and also carrying a firearm but was left off the hook.

He is still considered as the greatest UFC star and has just one loss to his name. However, Jones has been involved in several squabbles online, and it will be interesting to see who he fights next.

Israel Adesanya has spoken about his disdain for the champ, but the New Zealand-Nigerian star is in the Middleweight division.

Izzy would have to step up to the Light Heavyweight division to fight Jones as it would be really crazy for Jones to go a division down.

That could be a fight for the ages, and Jones’ hunting skills could be needed a lot when facing the Stylebender.
