the future of Jon Jones is hotter than ever. After defending the heavyweight belt (up to 120,2 kg) at UFC 309 last Saturday (16), the North American star made it clear that he wants to face Alex Poatán, but the pressure for a fight against Tom aspinall, interim champion, is a giant. In a 'Matchmaker Game' promoted by the UFC, 'Bones' did not keep quiet.
"(Alex Poatán e) Two-division champion in Glory Kickboxing, two-division champion in UFC. Use 'B' as your vote button all day here. Don't think, just double tap," wrote 'Bones' in response to the UFC.

The direct message from Jon Jones adds fuel to the fire by suggesting that, for him, only a duel with another champion in two categories would have the necessary weight. The provocation, of course, is directed at Aspinall, who holds the interim belt, but has lesser achievements than Poatan.
Jon Jones, 37, is one of the biggest names and is constantly cited as the 'GOAT' in MMA history. With a record of 28 wins, one loss and one 'no contest', the American has already defeated big names such as Alexander Gustafson, Chael Sonnen, Daniel Cormier, Glover Teixeira, Mauritius Shogun, Rampage jackson, Rashad evans, Stipe Miocic, Thiago Marreta e Vitor belfort.
