In news leaked today by Dana White to the LA Times, and confirmed by Bones' twitter, the champ will coach on TUF, which is a reality show on FX where mixed martial artists compete for a UFC contract.

The other coach, Chael Sonnen, who's been very critical of the champion Jones, and even accepted match with bones at UFC 151, but it was later scrapped by Jones.

Neither can cancel now as the two will fight April 27th at a destination to be named later.
