Former UFC light heavyweight title contender and now Bellator fighter Anthony Johnson has revealed the predictions for potential superfight of Francis Ngannou and Jon Jones.

“I think Jones has a lot of skills in his arsenal. His team is great, his fighting IQ is great. Everyone is only obsessed with knockouts right now. But here it is not enough to have only knockout power. You can be a puncher but fail. Cormier was not a puncher, but he beat me.

"You don't have to knock everyone out to be great. And you know, Jones has what it takes to beat Ngannou. I am not saying that he will finish him. But he can win. Of course, if Jones misses a punch, it will be a short night for him. People say John's jaw hasn't been tested yet, but he has fought the best in the sport. So I want to be given credit and to stop criticizing,” Johnson said in an interview with Helen Yee Sports.
