Chris Jones eager for competition—
When we had a chance to catch up with Battle of the Belts participant, and current FIP Florida Heritage Champion, Chris Jones this past weekend, and we asked him about the pressure of competing in FIP, holding the Florida Heritage Title, and being a part of this weekends Battle of the Belts Tournament, he had this to say:
“I don’t really feel any pressure on me honestly. I am out to prove myself against the best each and every time out here in FIP. I have held onto the Florida Heritage Title each time out and I expect to win every time I come through the curtain. That being said, I know I am going to have my hands full this weekend. This tournament has some of the best athletes anywhere in the world coming in to town, and I am going to give it everything I have. Davey Richards is a tough guy and I couldn’t have gotten a tougher first round opponent. I am just going to continue to work hard and do the things that have made me successful here in FIP, because once this weekend is over I have a line of guys waiting for a shot at this title, but first things first. I want to win this tournament and continue to represent FIP as best I can.”
