When Jiri Prochazka jokingly suggested that Alex Pereira was harnessing magical forces during his fights, it was met with amusement. However, Jon Jones is adamant that there is truth to this claim. Despite recently being overtaken by Pereira in the UFC’s pound-for-pound rankings, Jones is not responding with anger on social media, but rather by endorsing the notion of MMA magic.
In a recent tweet, Jones expressed, “There’s been a lot of discussion about spirit channeling and magic in MMA recently. This phenomenon is very much real. I’ve sensed various strange energies as I walk into those arenas. Making eye contact with opponents. I want to emphasize that Jesus Christ reigns supreme, he is and always will be undefeated. Every knee will bow.”
Jones is eagerly anticipating experiencing these energies in his upcoming bout against Stipe Miocic at Madison Square Garden in New York City. While he hinted at retirement, he also mentioned intriguing possibilities that could prolong his career, including the potential of facing Alex Pereira, the formidable ‘Magic Man’ in the UFC.
During a recent encounter at the airport, Pereira clarified to Prochazka that he is a man of faith and not involved in witchcraft. This revelation has only added to the anticipation surrounding a potential matchup between Jones and Pereira.
