Es de hace un tiempo, pero en esta entrevista decía que su peso fuera de temporada es de unas 217lb, vamos, unos 5-6kg por encima de la categoría, no es el recorte que insinuais algunos eh?
El mismo Chuck Liddell andaba sobre las 225lb
Heavy.com: We’ve seen and heard of the troubles Anthony Johnson has had making weight lately, missing by six pounds two fights back and fainting before the weigh-ins last weekend. Do you cut much weight heading into a fight and do you ever think about moving up somewhere down the line seeing as you’re only 22-years-old and still filling out?
Jon Jones: There is definitely still some growing going on, but I don’t cut much weight. I’ve decided to embrace my frame and that’s why I went with the nickname “Jonny Bones” because if you get the chance to meet me, I’m not that big.
I get that all the time – “Man, you skinny! You’re not that big in person” and I’m totally fine with that. I’m comfortable with that.
You know, guys like Bruce Lee, he never bulked up. Guys like (Anderson) Silva, these are guys that can move and really control their body. I so comfortable with my level of strength and my agility, and a lot of that comes from me not cutting weight.
I walk around at a healthy 217 and that’s not a big cut for me at all.
