According to UFC president Dana White the UFC light heavyweight champion Jon “Bones” Jones said that he wanted a vacation after his highly successful 2011 fight campaign.
White recently stated in an interview that “Bones” has changed his mind.
Here is a quote from that interview:
“[Jones] called about four days ago and said ‘okay let’s go, I’m done with vacation.’ He said he wanted to take all this time off and then they were calling me four days ago saying he wants to fight as soon as possible. He’s ready to go. What could end up happening is Dan Henderson fights Jon Jones first, and then [Jones’ subsequent fight] would be close to the time that Rashad fights. Or we see how things go with Rashad [versus Phil Davis] and Rashad fights him first.”
