Jon Jones has always been a complicated figure in MMA. The guy’s talent is undeniable, possibly the greatest ever. But his career has been a rollercoaster of highs and lows. Multiple suspensions, legal troubles, and lengthy absences have marked his journey. Through it all, Jones has somehow managed to come back each time. His return always generates massive buzz and huge paychecks too.<\/p>

Now the former heavyweight champion seems to be at another crossroads. Questions swirl about his future and whether he will fight. Tom Aspinall’s name keeps coming up, but Jones doesn’t seem interested. Yet Chael Sonnen thinks fans haven’t seen the last of ‘Bones’ in the UFC<\/a> octagon. The former title challenger has some interesting theories about what brings Jones back.<\/p>

Sonnen dropped his take on The Ariel Helwani Show<\/strong> recently. His reasoning was pretty straightforward and brutally honest. According to the ‘American Gangster,’ Jon Jones doesn’t have the money to walk away from fighting. That financial reality will bring him back to the cage eventually. When asked by Helwani if he thinks they will see Jones again, this is what he said:<\/p>

“He doesn’t have the money to walk away. He doesn’t have a choice.”<\/em><\/strong><\/p>
