LAS VEGAS — Nary a fight week can go by without Jon Jones being inundated with questions about a potential move to the heavyweight division.
Jones, the UFC’s reigning light heavyweight champion, has made it clear that heavyweight is in his future at some point. His longtime rival Daniel Cormier is the current UFC heavyweight champion and Jones has openly welcomed a fight against former heavyweight titleholder Brock Lesnar. But at 31 years old, Jones is also in no hurry. And with a UFC 235 title defense against Anthony Smith waiting around the corner, “Bones” doesn’t see his situation at 205 pounds changing anytime soon.
