Jon Jones is back. He can fight again in late October following a 15-month anti-doping suspension.
The question now — who will his first opponent be and when will he compete?
Malki Kawa, Jones’ longtime agent, told Luke Thomas on Monday’s edition of The MMA Hour that the most logical potential return opponents for Jones would be Daniel Cormier or Alexander Gustafsson. Jones wants to come back and fight for the UFC light heavyweight title he never lost in the Octagon, Kawa said.
Kawa believes the ball is in Cormier’s court.
