Laying out his dream team to prevent an would-be invasion of aliens, UFC 309 headliner, Jon Jones has picked a former foe, a current arch-nemesis, and a long-mooted future opponent as his team to fight back.
Jones, a former undisputed light heavyweight champion twice under the banner of the promotion, returns to action tonight at UFC 309, taking on the returning former divisional champion, Stipe Miocic in his first defense of the crown.
Winning vacant spoils back in March of last year, former pound-for-pound number one, Jon Jones snapped a three-year hiatus on that occasion, submitting former interim champion, Ciryl Gane with a dominant opening round guillotine choke submission to beat the Frenchman.
