John Jones announced that he will not be retiring after his victory over Miocic.

American fighter Jon Jones stated that he does not plan to retire after his victory over fellow countryman Stipe Miocic.

Jones knocked out Miocic with a body shot in the third round.

“He was good, very tough; I landed some heavy shots, but he kept coming forward. It’s discouraging when you land such punches, and a guy keeps advancing. But that kick to the body... no matter how tough you are, you will feel it.

Stipe isn’t the biggest heavyweight, but he’s always lean, with excellent cardio. I want to give credit to Jesus; I can’t help but be grateful for such a gift. As for my future... I’ve decided that I probably won’t retire. We have some negotiations going on with Dana, and if everything works out, we’ll give you guys what you want. We have options. Let’s see what Dana and Hunter want. I want to express my respect to President Donald Trump, who is here today. USA! USA! USA! I’m proud to be an American champion, a Christian American champion,” Jones declared in the ring.

The 37-year-old American successfully defended his UFC heavyweight championship title. Now he boasts 28 victories and 1 loss in his career. 1 fight was declared a no contest.
