The 32-year-old posted a video of him teaching one of his children some fundamentals of boxing. This was a routine dodge session where the youngster can be seen moving under a rope.

Jones is heard encouraging his child, and it seems he has a lot lined up for them.

Jones has always said how important his family is to him, and it will be interesting to see if any of his children make it into the world of combat sports.

UFC put on hiatus

Jones and the rest of the UFC stars will have to wait before they return to action. Dana White was adamant that UFC 249 would take place on 18 April and even changed the main event due to Khabib Nurmagomedov being stuck in Russia.

However, Disney and ESPN pulled a fast one and almost forced White to cancel the event. The UFC president added that he was still working on his private fight island. But it will be interesting to see if any of these events also take place.

This has handed stars with a lot of free time with Robert Whittaker also enjoying a session of Goat Simulator.
