As for my opponent, he’s already looking past me. He thinks it will be a walk through. He wants an easy fight for his debut, but it’s not happening. He’s a talented guy, but I’ll have the experience, size, hwj chim, striking and BJJ. He’s a very good wrestler, but I’m not worried about being on the ground. This will be a war and I will have my hand raised at the end. Dom, let’s do it baby – let’s do the talking in the cage!”
Jones will be making his professional debut, as well as his NEF debut, rau Plaub Hlis Ntuj 29. He got an early start in the martial arts, training Taekwondo with his father at six-years-old.
