Jon Jones is ready for some fresh challenge from Poland
Dominick Reyes has had his share of rivalry with Jones, where he almost beat the undefeated light heavyweight champion. However, Jones notched the victory via decision.
While many billed it to be Jones’s hardest fought battle, he clearly disagrees. As per Jones, Alexander Gustafsson has had pushed him to the deepest corner ever in his professional life.
I literally had to leave it all out there the night I beat Gus, my last fight I ended comfortably scoring points. Gus pushed me to a place I have still yet to see again

He claims his last fight was a comfortable one, as he kept scoring points.
Despite relinquishing the division, ‘Bones’ is still taunting the top-rated light heavyweights. Recently, he had a cheeky response for Polish native Jan Blachowicz.
Jan found my weakness, he threatened to fist me and I threw in the white towel 😂

To cement a stern warning, Jones said that he left both Gustafsson and Cormier with fatal injuries after their respective fights.
Both DC and Gus faced fatalities in our rematches, now for the first time in my career I’m terrified to have a rematch? If you believe this narrative, slap yourself

Meanwhile, the former light heavyweight king has already targeted Stipe Miocic or Francis Ngannou for his next fight. Dana White has already confirmed that Ngannou and Miocic will battle each other soon.
After that, Jones might enjoy his shot at the heavyweight belt.
The light heavyweight tale
Jones has nothing more to prove himself as an elite light heavyweight in the sport’s history. Starting from veteran world champions to the top-rated youngsters, he has overpowered them all.
Jones was reportedly aiming a heavy paycheck for his next fight, which ultimately led to his skirmish with UFC administrators. After several turmoils, Jones vacated his light heavyweight title.
