Jon Jones next week defends his light heavyweight title for the first time since April, and he’ll be looking to get back to his finishing ways.

Against Rashad Evans at UFC 145, Jones had a fight go the distance for the first time since a January 2009 win over Stephan Bonnar. Before that, the champion had seven straight finishes.

But on Tuesday, Jones said he didn’t have the same finishing instincts against his former friend and training partner that he has showed in other fights.
