Following his announcement, a fan wished him a 鈥榟appy retirement鈥. Jones made a comment that took people by surprise.
鈥淚 appreciate it,鈥 Jones said in response to the fan鈥檚 message. 鈥淏ut I鈥檓 really not retired.鈥
Jones then insisted that he wants to continue to travel the world and meeting MMA fans.
Jones said, 鈥淚鈥檒l be all over the country and all over the world. Meeting people who love the sport the most.鈥
