New Mexico, USA, one of the 4 states in the southwestern United States. It is bordered by Colorado to the north, Arizona to the west, Oklahoma to the northeast, Texas to the east and south, and Chihuahua, Mexico, to the southwest.

The city of Albuquerque, located in central New Mexico and straddling the banks of the Rio Grande, is the most populous city in New Mexico and the seat of Bernalio County. The city is the 33rd largest city in the United States and one of the fastest-growing cities in the United States. The largest city in New Mexico, USA, at an altitude of 1,620 meters, has a dry and mild climate, bordering the Rio Grande.

More than 100 years ago, it was a playground for cowboys in the West, and now it's a mecca for modern martial artists. The warm and dry desert climate gives the fighters who train here all year round a strong physique.

The famous Jackson-Wink MMA Academy was born in the city, and as the game of MMA grew, it slowly became an icon of the city. And at the main intersection into the city is the college's large single-column billboard, and the representative figure on the billboard is Jon Jones.

It's past 5 a.m., and the lights are still on in an office on the second floor of the Jackson Wink MMA Academy. In the smoky office, Greg Jackson, the soul of the Jackson Wenk MMA Academy, is frowning as he watches the video of Xiang Hero's past fights, recording something. Jackson doesn't remember well how many times he's seen a hero in the last month or two.

As Jon Jones' head coach, he didn't get carried away by the media fanfare, but instead took the hero more seriously than Daniel Cormier and Alexander Gustafson.

Now the computer screen is playing the Hero vs. Robert Vitekel Challenge. Jackson watched this nearly 15-minute game for almost an hour, and he carefully analyzed and dismantled every technical move of Xiang Hero, every offensive and defensive transition, every movement, every punch, and leg body change.

Although Jackson has watched this game no less than 5 times, he will gain something new every time he watches it. In the previous games against Xiang Hero, and even during the period of reference glory, Jackson had to admit that Xiang Hero was a martial arts genius who was definitely no less talented than Jon Jones.

Although Xiang Hero is inferior to Jon Jones in terms of physical hardware, he is superior to Jon Jones in terms of strength, striking ability, and striking skills. A fighter who can win a championship in glory has no doubt about the level of striking fighting.

In fact, these are all right, but what makes Jackson most profound is the hero's tenacious fighting spirit and indomitable spiritual will. In the match between Xiang and Robert Vitekel, he could feel from the computer screen how hard Xiang had suffered in the first round. But Xiang Yingying reversed the game with such an injury, not to mention, and also beat Robert Vitekel into a serious injury, lay in the hospital for more than a month before being discharged, and did half a year of rehabilitation at home, and only recently began to resume training.

After watching this game, Jackson stretched his body that was sitting a little stiff, and after making himself a cup of coffee, he sat down at the office desk again, and began to sort out the records just now, until he was busy with all this, and the sky was already dark.

Jackson stretched wide, pushed open the office window, and took a deep breath of the fresh air.

At this time, a swarthy and sturdy figure running quickly in the playground of the academy caught his attention. He subconsciously looked at his watch, and when he saw that the hands were at 6:35, Jackson had a relieved smile on his face.

Jon Jones, his biggest champion fighter, has all sorts of problems, but Jon Jones is still very dedicated in training.

He remembers that Jon Jones was preparing to return to play after the suspension expired. He remembers Jon Jones' agent, Markie Cava, once saying that "during this period of suspension, he really started thinking about what he really wanted to do." In the past, what he wanted to do most was martial arts, and he was under a lot of pressure for that. He wanted to take a longer break before his last fight, but whenever the UFC approached him and wanted him to play, he never turned down. When he had a break, he started thinking about his future, and in the end he wanted to play. ”

"I've never seen him so serious, he's been more serious about training than ever before. He's still the greatest fighter everybody has ever seen, isn't he, and I've watched him prep fight after fight, and every time his coach tells me how different Jon Jones is. It's the first time he's trained without a scheduled fight, and he's now training in Albuquerque's gym, where the best instructor is here, and he'll tell Jon Jones how to get the win! ”

That's right! He, Greg Jackson, is the one who can help Jon Jones win. Jackson believes that as long as Jon Jones follows his plan, he will be able to defeat any opponent, including the hero who is about to face "Fighting Tyrant."

Thinking of this, Jackson felt the need to have a good chat with Jon Jones again, and he had to warn Jon Jones once again that this time he would face an opponent who would definitely be tougher than Alexander Gustafson.

So, Jackson took the sorted materials, walked out of the office, and came to the playground. At this time, Jon Jones also finished his morning run during this period of extra practice. When he found Jackson, he was obviously stunned, and then he took off his soaked vest, wiped his sweat, and showed Bai Sensen's teeth while wiping his sweat, and asked with a smile: "Hey! Jackson, why is it so early today? ”

Jackson also replied with a smile: "I didn't go back yesterday." ”

Jon Jones was stunned when he heard this, and was about to ask why, when Jackson said, "Okay! You go take a shower and change your clothes first, the temperature difference between morning and evening is too big in this ghost weather, don't catch a cold. ”

Jon Jones nodded and walked quickly to the locker room.

Ten minutes later, in Jackson's office, Jon Jones found that the ashtray on Jackson's desk was full of cigarette butts, and he was slightly stunned and asked, "Jackson, don't you smoke?" ”

"Hmmm! Yesterday, I watched the video of the game for one night, and I smoked a pack of cigarettes to refresh myself. Jackson said.

"As for it? Watching the game in the evening, or you can take a break first, we'll talk in the afternoon. Jon Jones said.

"Oh! No! I'm in good spirits now, we're only 36 days away from the start of the game and we have to hurry. Jackson said with a somewhat solemn expression.
