Despite the fact neither Jon Jones nor Francis Ngannou compete under the same banner anymore, former two-weight UFC champion, Daniel Cormier claims a long-awaited future pairing of the duo would likely “blow the roof off any arena” that houses them.
Jones, the recently minted undisputed heavyweight champion, took the place atop the division pile from Ngannou, who was stripped of this gold back in January of this year ahead of his exit from the promotion.
Headlining UFC 285 in March against common-opponent, Ciryl Gane, Jones managed to submit the former interim gold holder with a stunning opening round guillotine choke, continuing his winning run a division higher following a three-year-plus hiatus from the sport.
