Jon Jones has recently moved up to heavyweight after relinquishing the 205-pound title that he’s long held. ‘Izzy’ is now two weight classes apart, and the consensus is that they will meet in the middle. Although no concrete timeline has been set, Israel Adesanya has called to fight Jon in 2021.
As it stands, both fighters have plenty of opportunities in their respective weight divisions. The middleweight division is a murderers’ row of game contenders pining for a shot at gold. Not to mention, a heavyweight title shot is a definite possibility should ‘Bones’ push for it. Fight fans will lay in anticipation to watch how the feud will continue to develop.
