Santos shared a brutal update this week on his recovery, saying he is in a wheelchair a lot, he can’t sleep or eat correctly because of the medications that he’s on, and the he fears going to the bathroom because the walk is so painful:

Jones saw this update and tweeted his support:

Fighters are incredibly brave and strong people and this is just more proof of that. The next time you think of booing during a fight, just don’t.

Maybe Santos “threw better strikes” but except for the leg kicks, almost none of them landed. As far as “making the fight happen,” Jones was advancing 95% of the fight. Santos was looking to counter and occasionally blitzing forward. Tiger. 1 year ago. Jones vs Santos. Sat, Jul 6 / 10:00 PM EDT T-Mobile Arena, Las Vegas United States Follow live.
