Jon Jones has had the opportunity to spar with everyone's favorite street hunter.
Maraji Johnson – better known under his alias Death sentence – won internet fame through Streetbeefs, where he was without a win until Demetrious Johnson became involved in his coaching.
Earlier this month, the combat fight in the back garden broke his losing series after training with the UFC legend, which is generally considered one of the greatest hunters in the MMA history.

Jon Jones called through Street Fighter
Demetrious Johnson warned the death sentence against the calling for former UFC Middleweight Champion Sean Strickland, but he just laughed when the Clueless -fighters set his sights on Jon Jones during their recent interview.
“If he was in this room now, I would swing on him,” said the death sentence when the conversation focused in 'bones'.
“F -it. Come to Charlotte and we can spar. The reason I didn't talk about Jon Jones is recently because I am going to concentrate on my opposition. But if Jon Jones was in this room, I would swing on him.
“I could take it out. I no longer have a resentment against him as before. I just wanted to hit his ass because I so much:” Bro, I earn what he has. I want it. “
“So I no longer have beef with Jon Jones. But again, if he was in this room and he wanted to run it, we can do that. However, it's on him.”
Will Jon Jones fight in 2025?
Jon Jones is talking to face a slightly harder opponent, Tom Aspinall.
The interim heavyweight title holder has waited for the chance to prove that he is MMA's best big man since he disabled Curtis Blaydes in 60 seconds on UFC 304 last July.
Dana White has '100 percent' guaranteed Jones vs Aspinall will take place in 2025.
“He fights. He will fight,” last month the UFC -CEO told street journalist Adam Glyn.
“Yes. Absolutely,” White added when he was asked if Jones returned in 2025.
On Saturday, Jones dropped a contradictory hint of two words over his UFC-COMEBACK TIME line.
After an Instagram user Jones had sarcastically asked when fans could expect his 'famous Oogpoke', the UFC large reacted with two words that apparently justified the viral petition to rid him of heavyweight gold.
“Next year,” Jones wrote and confirmed Fan Vrees that he is not going to be opposed to Aspinall soon.
Only the time will learn whether White and the other UFC bosses can convince Jones to return in 2025.
