Jon Jones picks next UFC opponent after Cyril Gun fight
The MMA legend clearly intends to stay in the octagon.
On March 4 in Las Vegas at the UFC 285 tournament, the legendary Jon Jones will hold his first fight after a three-year break. His opponents for the heavyweight title will be Frenchman Cyril Gan.
On the eve it became known that Jones signed a contract with the promotion for eight fights, which means that the athlete returned for a long time.
As if confirming this, Jones has already chosen his next opponent. “I don’t look behind Cyril Gan yet, but I already know that a fight with Stipe Miocic would mean a lot to me. He is the greatest heavyweight and we have a lot to talk about in the octagon,” Jones said.
At the same time, he expressed regret that the fight with Francis Nganne, which was originally planned, would not take place due to his departure from the promotion.
