Despite having limited experience in MMA, he believes that he can step into the cage and challenge Emelianenko. In a recent statement, Jones spoke about the possibility of a matchup between the two legends about their respective sports. Moreover, Emelianenko is a legend in MMA. He was such a big name that there was a debate once over who is better: him or Miocic.

The 46-year-old MMA veteran is looking to close out his career with a win. However, the allure of a bout with Jones Jr. may be too much for him to resist. Regardless of what happens, the mere possibility of this matchup has fans of both MMA and boxing excited for what could be a historic showdown.
