Jon Jones has been working hard ahead of his headlining bout at UFC 309 as he hopes to step away from the octagon with his record almost unblemished. As the fight draws near, fans have spotted an injury scare on the champion. Despite nursing a potential problem heading into November 16, Jones has released a statement thanking his trainers and teammates for the work they’ve put in so far.
