Former UFC champion in two weight divisions Henry Cejudo told why John Jones never debuted in the heavyweight division.
35-year-old John has not entered the octagon since February 2020, when he defeated Dominic Reyes by unanimous decision. Later, the American left the title in the light heavyweight division vacant due to a conflict with the management of the promotion.
"John is ready. It burns the same fire as before. The reason lies in Miocic. Stipe must decide what he wants to do: put out fires or fight. I respect his profession, but he is also an active fighter. People want to see fights. If Stipe calls and says that he is ready to fight this month, then John will sign the contract, even though he is the A side, ”Cejudo said on his YouTube channel.
