Light heavyweight champion (up to 93 kg) with two title defenses and former middleweight champion (up to 83,9 kg), Alex Poatán does not hide his desire to venture into heavyweight (up to 120,2 kg) and try to become the first fighter to win belts in three categories in the UFC. The Brazilian's plans, however, come up against the messy situation in the category led by Jon Jones and also in the resistance of Dana White, who has already shown himself to be against the movement, but may be changing his mind.
In a recent appearance on the podcast 'The Big', the UFC president did not rule out a duel between Alex Poatán e Jon Jones and revealed that he has been constantly pressured by commentator Joe Rogan regarding the issue.
