UFC Welterweight Champion Leon Edwards shared his prediction for the upcoming fight for the vacant heavyweight title between John Jones and Cyril Gan.

The meeting of these fighters will headline the UFC 285 tournament, which will be held on March 4 in Las Vegas.

“I really look forward to seeing Jones at heavyweight because we all remember what a great fighter he was in the light heavyweight division. He went through the title path twice in light heavyweight, and the transition to heavyweight is more than logical, since he had nothing to prove there.

I am sure that the fight will be interesting, and if I need to choose a winner, then I would bet on Jones. If he fights like he did before, then Gan has no chance. John is unequivocally upset by the departure of Francis Ngannou from the UFC, but even without him there is someone to compete with in heavyweight, ”quotes Briton MMA Junkie.
