There was no bad blood between Jon Jones and Ovince Saint Preux at any stage of their fight – but ‘Bones’ was still thrilled to learn that he had the power in his kicks to break bones.
The former UFC light heavyweight champion was nursing an injury after dominating OSPÂ en route to a unanimous decision victory in the main event of UFC 197 on Saturday night.
After the bout, Jones was reporting pains in his left shin and foot after repeatedly landing roundhouse kicks to Saint Preux for 25 minutes.

UFC interviewer Megan Olivi asked Jones about the injury and told ‘Bones’ that the kicks had seemingly broken Saint Preux’s arm.
And Jones genuinely seemed over the moon with the news because he has, for many years, had a reputation for having ‘chicken legs’ that lacked power.
‘Bones’ even broke out a little dance to celebrate the occasion.
MMA can be a funny ol’ sport.
