TORONTO – UFC light heavyweight champion Jon Jones was entirely serious when he recently stated his desire to leave the sport of MMA behind by 30 years old. Jones (19-1 MMA, 13-1 UFC), 26, believes he will be able to accomplish all of his career goals within the next four years, at which point he will make his exit from active competition. Some fighters try to stay active well past their primes, and after seeing the consequences for those before him, Jones believes it’s most important to retire with a full bill of health. “I just want to leave the sport with a good head on my shoulders,” Jones told MMAjunkie.
