Dana White Talks Jon Jones UFC Heavyweight Title Fight After Miocic vs. Ngannou

UFC President Dana White is open to Jon Jones fighting for the UFC Heavyweight Championship, but not until after a title fight between Stipe Miocic and Francis Ngannou happens.

According to Nolan King and Ken Hathaway of MMAJunkie, White mentioned that Jones has interest in taking some time off and then entering the heavyweight ranks after vacating the UFC light heavyweight title this week.

White added:

"[Miocic vs. Ngannou] is definitely the fight that's going to happen at heavyweight now. Francis Ngannou had earned that title shot. Then we'll see what happens.
