Jon Jones’ Chilling Response When Asked How Quick He Could Kill Average Person
The MMA icon could make a return to the UFC at the White House next year
Jon Jones delivered a chilling response when asked how quickly he could kill someone, as speculation mounts over a potential return to the UFC.
Widely regarded as one of the greatest mixed martial artists of all time, Jones retired from the sport in June.
His retirement ended speculation about a potential heavyweight title clash with Tom Aspinall, and the Briton was promoted to be the undisputed champion.
However, Jones could be set to make a comeback, with the American reportedly interested in fighting at UFC White House in June 2026.

He is understood to be keen to feature on the card for next summer's historic event on the south lawn of the president's residence and has now returned to the drug-testing pool.
Brazilian fighter Alex Pereira has emerged as a potential opponent for Jones next June.
Posting on X, Jones revealed: "Alex, I’d be down to bring the highest skill level to the White House.
"I appreciate the respect you showed, let’s dance."
With a potential return to the octagon on the cards, a clip from last year has resurfaced, in which Jones was asked how quickly he could kill someone.
During an interview with Lucas Brody, from the Broadcast Boys, he was initially asked whether he could do it in five seconds.
Jones replied: "No, not in five seconds, " before Brody asked whether 10 seconds would be enough.
"No, well it depends on what position we started.
"Like starting face to face, it would be pretty hard to get you in 10 seconds. 20 seconds, you're a** is grass."
For many UFC fans, there is still frustration over Jones walking away from the sport instead of facing Aspinall.
The Briton's first fight as undisputed heavyweight champion ended prematurely, after an accidental double eye poke in the first round against Ciryl Gane.
Aspinall still had no vision in his right eye three days later, leaving fans to wonder when he could return to the octagon.
However, Jones has shown minimal sympathy for his old rival on social media.
Ahead of Dirty Boxing 4, he mocked Aspinall as he arrived at the weigh-ins on a horse wearing an eye-patch.
Jones said: "You’ve gotta do it right.
"We’ve got the beautiful horse with the eyepatch on.
“We’re having a good night.”
The dig was not well received on social media, with MMA fans criticising the American for avoiding a fight with Aspinall.
