It's the same Jon Jones - he went to Union-Endicott and was a Jr. that year:

Basically, the only logical thing to assume here is that Matt Riddle > Jon Jones.

Jones needs to stop ducking Riddle.

tight, do you know what weight it was at? now they fight in very diff weight classes

n/m i figured it out - 189 - interesting

arthur jones also competed in the tournament at 275

Bones dodged a bullet imo.

 

[Kobe4LHW Champ]

Well that son of b Sullivan really killed those plans

 

[Krallang]

This just proves Jones has been ducking fights for nearly a Decade.

Goodwork TS

Going to bars on fight nights and bragging to women, I'd imagine.

haha. I remember he wrestled at UPenn for a little. Didnt do too great. Riddle and Sullivan were both seniors at this point. Jones won it the next year.

Let's ignore all of that and pretend it's Tim Kennedy (who would of been 25 at the time in high school) lol.

As far as I know Jones high school career wasn't very impressive, lots of guys probably have wins over him from wrestling back then
