Former UFC Light Heavyweight champion Jon Jones posted side-by-side photos on social media Thursday, from 2013 and 2015, showing his incredible body transformation.

Jones was recently reinstated by the UFC after a suspension stemming from an April hit-and-run accident stripped him of his title.

Jones wrote on his Instagram post, "Started powerlifting June 1, 2015. In just about seven months of training four days a week, my body has made a complete transformation," also adding "Off season 2013 vs off season 2015. Five more months to prepare for this win. I'll be sure to be at my best April 23rd."

The photos show a beefed up, muscular Jones who's clearly been spending a lot of his time in the gym, seemingly preparing for a return.

April 23 is the unoffical date of UFC 198 in Madison Square Garden but there has been no word on who Jones' potential opponent might be.

While fans anxiously await a title match between Jones and Daniel Cormier, Cormier has publicly stated on multiple occassions New York was the one place he did not want the rematch to happen because it's Jones' hometown.

Jones' last fight was this past January against Cormier and he retained the title in a unanimous decision. Cormier claimed the vacant title at UFC 187.
