Former referee and now commentator John McCarthy shared his expectations from the fight for the vacant heavyweight belt between John Jones and Cyril Ganwhich will take place on March 4 at UFC 285 in Las Vegas.

“The problem is that Cyril Gana took down Francis Ngannou. And Jon Jones is far from stupid, he is a very smart fighter. There is another guy on John's team who I consider to be a good and smart coach.

I'm talking about Henry Cejudo. This guy knows a thing or two about wrestling. I think Jones will bring Gan to the ground and beat him systematically," McCarthy said on the Weighing In podcast.
