Jon Jones Hilariously Corrects Confused Fan On Twitter
Former UFC light heavyweight champion Jon Jones was sited at Legoland today…… or was he?
Earlier today a fan took to Twitter to ask Jones if he was visiting the Florida theme park, perhaps taking a break from his training camp for his upcoming championship bout against longtime rival Daniel Cormier.
The fan snapped a shot of a someone who looks oddly similar to Jones (physically) and asked ‘Bones’ if he was in fact visiting the famed park:

The champ hilariously responded to the confused fan, assuring him he has the wrong guy:
Lol wrong black guy https://t.co/doWJyjJXZD

While some physical features between this man and Jones are the same, including height and the big scruffy beard, you can also tell this man is clearly not the pound-for-pound best fighter in the world.
First this man’s arms are a little too big, and if you look closely at the face you can tell it is clearly not Jones. The shades and beard, however, do make you wonder if it is Jones at a glance:
Alas, Jones is not at Legoland, nor will he be anytime soon, as the No. 1-ranked light heavyweight is preparing to rematch Daniel Cormier for the 205-pound strap he never lost in the main event of UFC 200 in July.
UFC 200 takes place at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada, live on pay-per-view (PPV) on July 9th, 2016.
