One of the biggest events of the promotion came to an end after taking the entire UFC community to the edge of their seats. UFC 285 became a huge success as fans were eager to watch Jon Jones fight after a hiatus of three long years. Jones shook the star-studded audience at T-Mobile Arena, Nevada, by making his victory look effortless. After a long wait, ‘Bones’ and Ciryl Gane came face to face on March 4. Considering the fact that Jones stayed away from the octagon for three long years, many expected the bout to be a close fight. Contrary to everyone’s expectation, ‘Bones’ trapped the Frenchman in a guillotine choke, forcing him to tap.

The match clearly showed how Gane lacked skills on the ground. He easily let Jones sit on the heavyweight throne, as ‘Bon Gamin’ terribly failed at outperforming Jones when it came to wrestling. At the moment, ‘Bones’ is thoroughly enjoying capturing the heavyweight belt that he earned in his debut fight at heavyweight.

After defeating the Frenchman, the 35-year-old called out one of the greatest heavyweights of all time. That is none other than Stipe Miocic. ‘Stone Cold’ has a perfect reply for the recently crowned heavyweight king, who is looking to quench his thirst for more victories.

Stipe Miocic talks about the strategy he will be using against Jon Jones

Recently, Stipe Miocic was seen talking in an interview with Michael Bisping and Anthony Smith. While having a conversation with the two, ‘Stone Cold’ mentioned that Jones‘ plan to finish him is never going to be a reality. The 40-year-old even went on to explain how he was going to defeat Jones.

He stated, “He’s gonna finish me before the championship rounds. It’s funny, but it’s not gonna happen and see it going the other way. I’m definitely going to finish him.”

Talking further on the same topic, Miocic explained his strategy to beat Jones and become the heavyweight champion for the third time. ‘The Silencer’ added, “he does just take me down. I’m gonna get back up. I mean, I’m not going to sit on the ground, you know. I’m gonna do what I do like I’m not fancy. I don’t do spinning sh*t.

He continued, “I’m a basic b*tch, new basic stuff and I think that makes it hard for people doing basic stuff. I do what I want to do but I make people do, go the way that I wanted to make, and go to make me what I want to do that makes sense like I make you feel like you’re doing good but then I get you into where I want you. I put you like into a web.“
