Jon Jones’s latest victory didn’t leave a lot of room for questions, outside of one: Who’s next?
At UFC 235, Jones authored the first successful defense of his second light heavyweight title reign and ninth championship defense overall, rarely being threatened as he cruised to a unanimous decision win over challenger Anthony Smith. With “Bones” appearing to exit the fight relatively unscathed — though he was given a conditional six-month medical suspension that can be cleared by a doctor — it seems likely that the champion will be back in action sooner rather than later.
