Ahead of his UFC 309 return next month, heavyweight titleholder, Jon Jones has once more played down the chances of a title unification fight with Tom Aspinall next, instead claiming he would welcome the chance to take on light heavyweight champion, Alex Pereira should he prevail at Madison Square Garden.
Jones, a former undisputed light heavyweight champion twice under the banner of the UFC, will put his heavyweight crown on the line next weekend in New York, with the Rochester native welcoming former two-time divisional gold holder, Stipe Miocic back to the Octagon for the first time since 2021.
