In 2022, there were ongoing talks about a fight between former UFC champions Stipe Miocic and Jon Jones.

Jones contradicted Dana White’s previous statement, stating that offers were supposedly made, but nothing ever materialized. Miocic was a guest on a recent episode of The MMA Hour, where he shared his side of the story.
