UFC Bantamweight Champion Aljamain Sterling knows what it’s like to get one-on-one advice from UFC legend Jon Jones.

Jones made a rare public appearance this weekend at PFL 5 in Atlanta, GA on Saturday. He was one of the cornermen for PFL heavyweight and former UFC fighter Maurice Greene for his fight against Denis Goltsov.

Jones got the opportunity to showcase his vast knowledge of the fight game, along with his ability to communicate and inspire his teammates, during the fight. A clip of Jones cornering Greene went viral on social media after being aired on the PFL broadcast.

Many MMA fans praised Jones for the brief look into his cornering style. However, it was a tough outing for Greene who ended up losing via a unanimous decision to Goltsov.

On an Instagram post from MMA Fighting showing the corner work, Sterling reflected on a time when Jones helped him with his development early on.

“Love this version of Jones,” Sterling said. “Reminds me of my freshman year at SUNY Morrisville, and recorded and coached me, with coach. Good ol days!”

Sterling and Jones were briefly teammates at Morrisville State College in New York. Jones studied Criminal Justice before dropping out and pursuing his career in MMA.

Jones is anticipating a return to the UFC later this year, potentially against former heavyweight champion Stipe Miocic. The former light heavyweight champion hasn’t competed since a win over Dominick Reyes at UFC 247.

While Jones has had his fair share of controversies away from fighting, he’s had a significant impact on fighters like Sterling who have managed to make the climb towards championship gold.

Heavyweights and featherweights will be the main features on the card, except for Pettis’ lightweight fight against Stevie Ray. Cappelozza will face Matheus Scheffel, who fell to 2021 runner-up Ante Delija at PFL 2 back in April via a second-round knockout.

Cappelozza will get a second-straight main event slot after dismantling Stuart Austin in his 2022 PFL debut. He won the 2021 PFL heavyweight title over Delija via a unanimous decision.

Pettis makes his return to the PFL cage after a first-round submission win over Myles Price. He is looking to clinch a playoff spot after failing to reach the PFL postseason last year.

Cappelozza and Pettis’ matchups will be preceded by the return of 2021 featherweight finalist Chris Wade, along with former 145lb champion Lance Palmer. Brendan Loughnane also returns against former Dana White’s Contender Series standout Boston Salmon while Bubba Jenkins faces Saba Bolaghi.

The next three PFL cards, including the June 24th card, will take place in Atlanta, GA at the Overtime Elite Arena.
