Daniel Cormier: A trilogy bout with Jon Jones ‘can always happen’
Esther Lin, MMA Fighting Jon Jones and Daniel CormierNo matter who Jon Jones or Daniel Cormier are booked to fight, there always seems to be the question of if they’ll face each other a third time.
Jones defends his light heavyweight title this Saturday at UFC 239 against Thiago Santos, and Cormier is set to defend the heavyweight title in a rematch with Stipe Miocic at UFC 241 in August. Both men are currently in Las Vegas, Cormier for a UFC summer press conference where he was asked if a third fight with Jones could be on the horizon should he get past Miocic again.
After taking a moment to think, Cormier confirmed that Jones’s name is perpetually on the table if the price is right.
