“Maybe the UFC and PFL Might Want To”: Despite Controversies, UFC Legend Hopeful for Francis Ngannou vs Jon Jones Fight Amid Dana White’s Offer to Tyson Fury

It seems like Jon Jones has hijacked the center of the MMA spotlight ever since his return. The UFC world heavyweight champion has been linked to many fighters for his next battle.

When ‘The Schmo’ asked about the probability of Fury vs Jones happening, Cejudo quickly shifted the topic onto a more practical possibility, Jones vs Ngannou.

“Yeah we’re just talking about a lot of sh*t that’s never going to happen. I can see Francis Ngannou fighting Jones if everything goes well. Maybe the UFC and PFL might want to co-promote and there could be something along those lines. I don’t know, I haven’t talked to Jon in a minute.”
