Daniel Cormier recently said that a trilogy fight with Jon Jones at 205 pounds is ”all I want.” If Cormier truly does want to face his rival one more time before retirement, it appears as though it will have to be at light heavyweight – because Jones isn’t moving up a division.
Jones defeated Cormier via unanimous decision in their first meeting at UFC 182 in January 2015, and he stopped “DC” via technical knockout in their rematch at UFC 214 – but that victory was overturned to a no contest when the Jackson-Wink MMA product failed a USADA drug test.
