Noche UFC / UFC 306 was every bit the spectacle it promised, no doubt about it. But the MMA community got a unlikely trio when Light heavyweight champion, Alex Pereira, reigning Heavyweight champion, Jon Jones, and boxing controversialist Ryan Garcia posed for a snap together. Soon after, the picture went viral, prompting MMA pages like MMA Orbit to ask the fandom to name the trio.
Jumping in on the post, netizens put their creativity to absolute best use suggesting names for the “boy band.” Reflecting on Ryan Garcia and Jon Jones ‘ co***ne allegations, one fan chimed in with an interesting comment like the rest of the users. The junkie jokes were writing themselves at this point.
And then Garcia took some strays for being short. Who’s the ugly, one might ask after reading this. This is a unique trio indeed.
Garcia has been banned from boxing for indulging in PEDs, Jones has been through a similar experience and Pereira just likes hanging out with people. That could have been Jay Z and Beyonce standing with him, and it would still make sense. Jokes aside, ‘Poatan’ actually wants to hang out with Jones and not just at UFC PPVs.
‘Poatan’ wants the Jones’ book of knowledge Following their meetup, the Brazilian talked to media and revealed his desire to gain knowledge and experience from the future UFC Hall of Famer and is looking for a tie-up. In a recent exclusive to Full Send MMA , the former Glory two-division champion kickboxer talked about how Jones was looking fitter than the last time they met. ‘Poatan’ wants to train with the Rochester native even if he cannot fight him inside on octagon.
Apparently, Pereira and Jones have been talking about training together for a long time and chances are it’ll be reality soon! While the Brazilian remains skeptical about a probable bout with ‘Bones’ he genuinely wants to acquire the vast ocean of experience from the heavyweight champion..
