Alex Pereira, UFC bantamweight champion, spoke out about the heavyweight division bout.
"I'm a champion and I want to fight a champion/ Let's get a fight with Jon Jones. That's the only fight I want to make at heavyweight. Before his previous fight, he and I talked a little bit about a possible fight. He's not a friend of mine, or someone I talk to regularly, but he's someone I respect. I know he respects me, so it's a mutual respect."
