Off the back of his spectacular vacant heavyweight championship victory at UFC 285 last weekend, former light heavyweight kingpin, Jon Jones has opened as quite the massive betting favorite to defeat former two-time heavyweight best, Stipe Miocic, ahead of a targeted UFC 290 clash in July.
Jones, the newly-minted undisputed heavyweight champion, headlined UFC 285 last Saturday in Las Vegas, Nevada against former interim division champion, Ciryl Gane – clinching the crown in a stunning opening round guillotine choke victory.
Rallying after suffering an inadvertent groin strike in the opening exchanges against the Frenchman, Jones would then take Gane to the Octagon canvas successfully, before working his way to the fence.
