Ngannou named the favorite for the fight between Jones and Gan

Former UFC Light Heavyweight Champion John Jones win an early victory over Cyril Gan in the upcoming fight for the vacant title in the heavyweight division, if he manages to drag his opponent to the ground. This opinion was expressed by the former owner of this belt Francis Ngannou.

“It all depends on what kind of Jones we see. Will it be the Jones we know, or just the guy in the octagon. Will he fight more? If John shows class, we will see him win by knockout. I think he will take Cyril to the ground, pick him up, and then finish.

But if Jones decides to work on defense, then the meeting will last five rounds. Because then there will be two fighters in the octagon, acting from defense, ”Ngannou said in an interview with The Schmo.
