‘Bones' Issues Statement About His Official Retirement
'Today, I'm officially announcing my retirement from the UFC,' Jones wrote. 'This decision comes after a lot of reflection, and I want to take a moment to express my deepest gratitude for the journey I've experienced over the years.' 'From the first time I stepped into the Octagon, my goal was to push the boundaries of what was possible in this sport. Becoming the youngest UFC champion in history, defending my title against some of the best fighters in the world, and sharing unforgettable moments with fans across the globe—these are memories I'll cherish forever.' 'I've faced incredible highs and some tough lows, but every challenge has taught me something valuable and made me stronger, both as a fighter and as a person. I want to thank the UFC, Dana, Hunter, Lorenzo, God, my family, coaches, teammates, and all the fans who have stood by me through every chapter. Your unwavering support and belief in me have been my foundation.' 'To my fellow fighters, thank you for bringing out the best in me and for the respect we've shared inside and outside the cage. As I close this chapter of my life, I look forward to new opportunities and challenges ahead. MMA will always be a part of who I am, and I'm excited to see how I can continue to contribute to the sport and inspire others in new ways. Thank you all for being part of this incredible journey with me. The best is yet to come.'

UFC Baku live blog: Jamahal Hill vs. Khalil Rountree Jr.
This is the live blog for Jamahal Hill vs. Khalil Rountree Jr., the light heavyweight main event for Saturday's UFC Baku fight card at Baku Crystal Hall in the promotion's first visit to Azerbaijan. Hill looks to bounce back from consecutive knockout losses to Alex Pereira and—most recently at UFC 311 in January—Jiri Prochazka. The former light heavyweight champion seeks his first win in over two years, that being a title-winning decision victory against Glover Teixeira at UFC 283 in January 2023. 'Sweet Dreams' makes his 11th walk to the octagon. Advertisement Rountree competes for the first time in 2025. In his most recent outing, the 35-year-old was stopped by Pereira in his first championship bout at UFC 307 this past October in the fourth round. Prior to that, Rountree won five straight, including stoppage wins against Anthony Smith, Chris Daukaus, Karl Roberson, and Modestas Bukauskas. Check out the Hill vs. Rountree live blog below.
