Alex Pereira Pumps the Brakes on Training with Jon Jones

UFC light heavyweight king Alex Pereira is pumping the brakes on a potential training session with fellow champion Jon ‘Bones’ Jones.

Last year rumors started to swirl of a potential superfight between the MMA mega-stars after Jones claimed that a fight between Pereira and himself is the biggest fight the UFC could make right now. ‘Poatan’ certainly appeared to be on board to make it happen, suggesting that a move to heavyweight could be in his future.
