Jones’ shorts feature a pair of lions, as well as the lettering of Jones’ Philippians 4:13 tattoo.
The two-division title winner adds his name to the growing list of fighters to receive special custom fight shorts, which includes Alex Pereira, Dustin Poirier, and Max Holloway.
The 37-year-old captured the heavyweight championship with a quick guillotine submission win against Ciryl Gane at UFC 285 in March 2023. Now he defends his belt against Miocic, who is returning to action for the first time since 2021.
