Jon Jones, the current UFC heavyweight champion, announced that the promotion offered him to headline the organization's 300th anniversary tournament, which will take place on the night of April 14 in Las Vegas.
“A couple of days ago I got a call from Hunter Campbell, one of the UFC's top lawyers, and he said, 'John, I know there's only nine weeks left, but if there's even a chance, it would be amazing if you came back and headlined the greatest event of all time.' . And while I'm honored, I don't think I'll be ready. “I’ve reached the age where I have two more events left, and I want to put everything I have into these two performances, and that means I have to be in 100% shape,” Bones said.
