UFC star Jon Jones sends fan to hospital and leaves him on crutches after being challenged to kick him in the leg

JON JONES sent a mixed martial arts fan to the HOSPITAL after dishing out some of his trademark leg kicks.

The former pound-for-pound king has been doing a string of meet-and-greet events around the globe during his injury-enforced hiatus from the octagon.

And during a recent event, one brave fan asked the UFC‘s heavyweight champion to give him a taste of his leg kicks.

Jones, 36, was happy to oblige, tamely – by his standards – firing a low kick to the meat of the fan’s thigh.

The kick spun the fight fan in a full circle and drew gasps from the crowd in attendance.

But he foolishly asked the former long-reigning light-heavyweight champion to go “harder.”

Jones obliged, sending the man spinning again with an even harder low kick.

The foolish fight fan couldn’t hide his pain the second time around and hobbled as he made his way to embrace Jones.

The caption for the video shared by the fan on social media read: “Jon Jones tickles my leg.”

But a few seconds later, it was apparent Jones did more than tickle his leg as he was seen on crutches in the hospital.

And he revealed huge bruising to the back of his left leg, which fight fans were quick to comment on.

One wrote on X: “Everybody thinks they can get into the octagon until they find out.”

Another said: “Getting put on crutches for clout is WILD.”

And another said: “Bro holding in that pain like.”

One remarked: “He didn’t even put everything into the kick.”

Another chimed in: “He barely put effort into that shit too damn how do MMA fighters do it.”

Hall-of-famer Jones hasn’t set foot inside the octagon since he claimed the heavyweight title with a first-round submission victory over Ciryl Gane at UFC 285 last March.

Jones was due to defend his title against former champion Stipe Miocic at Madison Square Garden last November but was forced out of the clash of legends after tearing one of his pectoral muscles.

But he seems to be making a faster-than-expected recovery from his back-to-back surgeries, which has promoted UFC president and CEO Dana White to predict a summer return to the cage.
