After months of radio silence and contract issues, the UFC has provided a new update regarding Jon Jones’ awaited and talked about heavyweight debut. Bossman Dana White recently guested on the Jim Rome Show to confirm that “Bones” is “ready to go.”
“Jon Jones is ready to go. We’re just waiting for an opponent. It’s either gonna be Francis — depending on how long his knee is gonna take to recover — or Stipe Miocic.”
Jones, who turns 35 next month, hasn’t fought since February 2020 when he defeated Dominick Reyes via a debated unanimous decision.
