Jones was the first hunter to receive a large sponsorship agreement in the UFC
In 2011, Jones wrote history when he eliminated Shogun Rua to become the youngest UFC champion ever and won the title in just 23 years old.
'Bones' was already a big star in the sport, but his title gain catapulted him to superstar and he immediately had many big chances on his way.
He then defended his title several times about people like Rampage Jackson, Rashad Evans, who, according to him, most of all his opponents, and Chael Sonnen, did before he booked a defense against Alexander Gustafsson.
However, it was in 2012 when Jones became MMA's face when he signed a global sponsorship agreement with Nike and the first MMA athlete ever was sponsored by the sportswear giant.
'Bones' then put on the iconic Swoosh Shorts when he defended his title against Vitor Belfort on UFC 152.
Nike then released a line of Jones Signature Shoes, which was a huge breakthrough in the world of MMA when it helped with global recognition.
In anticipation of his fight against Gustafsson on UFC 165, Jones showed off his new characteristic shoe and even threw a few pairs into the crowd.
Jones's deal with Nike fell after Brawl with Daniel Cormier
After another title defense against Glover Teixeira, Jones was linked to Daniel Cormier in what was the start of their historic rivalry.
The two eventually became involved in a huge fight at the UFC 182 press conference that Jones claimed to drop his sponsorship.
