See Jon Jones wrestle with Jackass’ Steve-O
Jackass star Steve-O is a huge fan of MMA, and by extension, UFC light heavyweight champion Jon Jones. Lately the two have been spending time, giving back to the community in Albuquerque, as there has been looting and vandalism in conjunction with the protests against police brutality.
Known for his daredevil stunts and outlandish behaviour, however, Steve-O took the opportunity to train with Jones. He even challenged the light heavyweight champ to some light sparring, the results of which can be seen below.
“He may be the G.O.A.T., but (Jon Jones) is still very lucky I went so easy on him,” Steve-O wrote on Instagram.

This lighthearted time is surely welcome for Jones, who has been feuding with the UFC over payment issues. It all began with a proposed endeavour at heavyweight against Francis Ngannou, that never materialised, as negotiations with the UFC broke down.
“When I was in my prime, the UFC‘s way of not paying me was telling me I wasn’t a star,” Jones said of dealing with the UFC. “Had me grateful for a new car meanwhile making tens of millions without my knowing. Impressed a young kid with a Bentley to fight Lyoto Machida while they collected millions.”
