Inside Jon Jones' killer workouts
At 22, Jon 'Bones' Jones may be talked about as the Next Big Thing in the UFC, but the phenom's eye-popping abilities aren't an accident. The 6-foot-3, light heavyweight phenom and former All-American Greco-Roman wrestler has a training regimen as unorthodox as the kicks and strikes for which he's known. Each exercise is designed to push his muscles to the limit while training them to respond explosively.

Ben Saunders and dreams of Madison Square Garden
Chuck Mindenhall, UFC - When you're 6-foot-3 and cold as hell in the welterweight division, you can have a little bit of empathy for your opposition heading into a fight. Ben Saunders does. For starters, he knows there aren't a lot of clones out there to emulate his strong gangly frame. He suspects his latest victim, Marcus Davis, didn't have a Saunders-like mantis to give him the look. Ditto Brandon Wolff, whom Saunders beat similarly at UFC: Fight For the Troops in North Carolina.

Rhett Butler, UFC - In 1985, the film The Last Dragon debuted to the rare mix of horrible critiques by the movie critics and impressive box office sales. As one of the rare oxymoronic pieces of cinema, it became a cult classic with the timeless tale of naive good versus conscious evil.
