Jon Jones, the UFC heavyweight champion, has named an opponent he may fight after his fight with Stipe Miocic.

"If there's a guy that a fight with who would not only be financially beneficial but would be worthwhile from a legacy standpoint, it's Alex Pereira. We're both 37 years old. Right now I weigh 235 pounds (106 kg) and he weighs about 240 pounds (109 kg). He and I are both welterweights. This fight would leave a much bigger mark on my legacy than a fight with a guy who's tough today and might not be tomorrow"
