PIC: Jon Jones looks absolutely huge with former UFC heavyweight champion

He's no "light" heavyweight

All the heavy lifting Jon Jones has been doing in the gym has had a dramatic effect on his physique.

Arguably the greatest fighter to ever grace an Octagon has been keeping everyone updated on his preparations for his return on Instagram, and his posts are surely striking fear into the rest of the division.

On Wednesday, the former P4P king uploaded a video of himself doing a 500 lbs squat, which is a personal record for him.

He also teased about moving up to heavyweight by posted a clip of an extraordinary quantity of food he was about to devour with the following caption:

“Earned the light heavyweight title back then moved to heavyweight? The thought of lifting heavier and eating more is tarting to sound like a much better life to me.”

Judging by how massive he looks beside former UFC heavyweight champion Andrei Arlovski, Jones would look right at home in the promotion’s heaviest division.
