Jon Jones claims he’s ‘game’ to face ‘greatest heavyweight,’ 10 years after first teasing move up

Jon Jones says he’s interested in moving up to heavyweight.

Stop me if you’ve heard this before, but the decorated light heavyweight champion tweeted his interest for a heavyweight bout. Jones, who hasn’t fought in over two years, called for a clash of “greats.”

The greatest heavyweight of all time versus the greatest light heavyweight, who wants to see it? I’m game

He is seemingly calling for a bout with Stipe Miocic, who has been repeatedly called the heavyweight GOAT after his two title reigns and numerous UFC records in the division.
