By The Numbers: Jon Jones vs. Stipe Miocic

Legacies will be reshaped when Jon Jones defends his piece of the Ultimate Fighting Championship heavyweight crown against two-time titleholder Stipe Miocic in the blockbuster UFC 309 main event this Saturday at Madison Square Garden in New York. All signs point to it being the most talked-about fight of 2025.

Jones enters the cage on the strength of five straight wins. He last suited up at UFC 285, where he disposed of Ciryl Gane with a guillotine choke in the first round of their March 4, 2023 confrontation, joining Randy Couture and Daniel Cormier as the only men to capture UFC championships in the heavyweight and light heavyweight divisions.
