Rashad Evans says he would have psychedelic experience with Jon Jones
Former UFC light heavyweight champion “Suga” Rashad Evans recently opened up about how his “mind blowing” and “earth shattering” experiences with the Toad medicine (5Meo-DMT) and how it radically changed his life.
Evans, who recently came out of retirement from professional mixed martial arts competition, sat down with CBS Sports’ Shakiel Mahjouri for a variety of questions. One such question related to who Evans’ would partake in a ‘journey’ with.
Which fighter could benefit the most from a psychedelic experience?
“If I could pick anybody, it would be Jon Jones. I would get Jon Jones,” Evans said. “I would sit down and have a ceremony with him. Mushrooms would be a good start, but I don’t think mushrooms are the thing that bring him to that breakthrough moment. I think he might need a little something stronger to have that breakthrough moment.”
Evans defeated Gabriel Checco at Eagle FC 44 by way of unanimous decision on January 28, his first fight since 2018.
Not looking to rush into the next decision for his fighting career, Rashad Evans sounds like a fighter who is comfortable and happy where he’s at in his career. Sticking with Eagle FC may provide Evans to move at his own pace and offer him the fight that he’s looking for in a comfortable environment with the promotion.
