It seems that the Super Bowl title (final of American football), won on February 1st, when the New England Patriots beat the Seattle Seahawks, did a lot of good for Chandler Jones' confidence. Enjoying the life of a champion, Chandler challenged none other than the UFC light heavyweight champion Jon Jones, his older brother, to fight for charity.

Chandler's proposal, who is bigger, heavier and has a greater wingspan than his brother, is that he and Jon Jones duel for a heist, with the loser making a cash donation to a charity of the winner's choice. According to him, despite this time having a social appeal, fighting against his brother would not be a big deal.

“We used to fight all the time when we were kids. I'm sure I can take him down. I'm much bigger than him. It will be fun to do a round for charity. I just don't know what my coach's (New England Patriots) reaction will be. I don’t think he’s going to like it very much…” said Chandler, in an interview with the “TMZ Sports” website.

Jon Jones, 27 years old, has a professional record of 22 wins and just one loss. The light heavyweight champion is now awaiting confirmation of the date of his next title defense, in which he will face his compatriot Anthony Johnson.
