“Easy money Jon Jones”- Henry Cejudo gives out a bold prediction for the mega-fight between Stipe Miocic and Jon Jones

Jon Jones vs Stipe Miocic

Jon Jones currently is absent in the rankings as he relinquished his light heavyweight world title after his bout against Dominick Reyes at UFC 247. He turned in focus preparing for his long-anticipated heavyweight debut and making sure he is in the right heavyweight frame. Jon Jones wants the best of the best in this division, even after a long lay off he doesn’t shy away from a challenge. 

With Francis Ngannou out from the action, Jones called out for a fight against another legend of the division, Stipe Miocic. In a recent Tweet, he wrote, “The greatest heavyweight of all time versus the greatest light heavyweight, who wants to see it? I’m game.”

Dana White himself claimed that they would very much like to book this fight, and if Jones is eyeing a summer return, they can talk to Stipe as well. In an interview with TMZ, he said, “I was just telling somebody the other day, our lineup for this summer is incredible,” White said. “So I’m hoping Jones is going to be part of that lineup this summer. … Stipe makes sense.”

Jones has been training under the wing of former double champ, Henry Cejudo. He is very confident about Jones’ heavyweight debut, and he broke down this fight between Jones and Stipe during The Triple C & Schmo Show, he said, “I love this fight for Jon just because everything that Stipe has, Jon is better at. If he was fighting a Francis Ngannou, I was a little more cautious with that one just because of pure power and when you have somebody that has scary power like that, it’s a strength that kinda overwhelms whomever.”

He added, “You got power, but Francis Ngannou’s power is different. But with the Stipe fight, I like it for Jon. I think it’s gonna allow Jon to really work on everything, like mixed martial arts as a whole, not just sticking to one base. So at the end of the day, I think it’s easy money for Jon Jones.”
