UFC Light Heavyweight Champion Jon Jones will be the latest mixed martial arts fighter to appear in his birthday suit for the 2011 edition of ESPN Magazine's "The Body Issue."
"Bones" will join past honorees Gina Carano, Randy Couture and Cristiane Santos.
USA Today has more:
Over 20 athletes will appear naked (with private parts strategically covered) in the "Bodies We Want" section of the 2011 issue, said editor-in-chief Chad Millman. The mag's third "exploration and celebration of the athletic form" hits newsstands Oct. 7.
The other male athletes: speedskater Apolo Ohno; NHL player Ryan Kesler; UFC light heavyweight champion Jon Jones; IndyCar racer Helio Castroneves; snowboarder Louie Vito; boxer Sergio Martinez; marathoner Ryan Hall and paralympian Jeremy Campbell.
"This is an issue in the short time we've been doing it that's become pretty anticipated," says Millman. "In terms of the athletes we've attracted, we feel like the group is really strong."
ESPN the Magazine's third annual "Body Issue" will hit newsstands next week. Any Maniacs plan on picking up a copy? Or does the idea of Jonny and his bone not appeal to you?
Before you decide, be advised that gymnast Alicia Sacramone and soccer goalie Hope Solo will also appear sans clothes.
Giggity.

They only included one picture of her legs, but they took up pages 26-27.

I knew there would be some women-types hating this thread...
Seriously you guys sound like little bytches with your blind, I hate him and I dont know why, hate. If you’ve ever had a girlfriend or a sister, you’d see what you’re doing is a female trait. “Ughgh I hate that bitttch…look at her dress…”
I thought MMA was for manly men and tough guys. Drop your balls and act like men. geesh
If it was for manly men..why is jon jones posing nude in a mostly man bought magazine?

and you obviously do too.

the moment you said “manly men” you outed yourself.

Says the guy who is clearly overcompensating
When a Texan decides to take his chances, you know chances will be taken.
You guys are like those Miller Light commercials.
“Hating Jon Jones for no reason is the SECOND unmanly thing youve done today”… "
what was the first?"
" Jacking Off to gay porn….."
“Yeah you’re right…”

"When swinging from nut-sack of the mighty "Quittin" Rampage Jackson, try to avoid getting his ball-sweat in your eyes….it tends to blind you from the obvious. Now, if I could just play a round of golf with my dream foursome of Chael Sonnen, Larry Merchant and Danago, I can die a happy man."

and you are like that annoying chick who keeps talking
even though it is clear no one is listening.
"Every time I win a title somewhere, Dana has to buy the company to get me back." - Hendo
Says the dude who replied twice. Did Jones wear the same dress that you wore?
Thats the most common reason bytches hate on each other.

They should have gone with Mr. Wonderful instead. He a more of a freak of nature and considerably cooler guy.
meh
not her best picture but as long as the ball is strategically placed in front of her face, I’m good with it.
