Jon Jones' last fight in the UFC was a TKO victory of Stipe Miocic (Getty)

UFC legend Jon Jones has revealed that missing the landmark fight card on the White House South Lawn in June is a regret he will live with forever.

The American fighter, who retired in summer 2025, stated that a failure to reach a contract agreement with UFC chief Dana White prevented him from competing.

Jones admitted it was difficult watching fellow fighters walk out from the Oval Office in front of Trump and military heroes.

The 39-year-old previously turned down a reported $30m to fight British heavyweight Tom Aspinall before hanging up his gloves.

Ciryl Gane won the interim heavyweight title at the White House event and was recently elevated to undisputed champion after Aspinall vacated the belt due to eye injuries.
