Jones has a point to his plans as he has a history with all of the fighters he listed.
With Cormier, Jones beat him at UFC 182 to retain his title. Jones was then scheduled to fight Johnson at UFC 187, but Jones was stripped of the belt and indefinitely suspended by the UFC in conjunction with a hit-and-run accident that he was involved in on April 28th. The UFC then booked Johnson vs. Cormier at UFC 187, which saw Cormier beat Johnson.
Jones and Gustafsson have history as the two fight at UFC 165, which saw Jones beat Gustafsson. The fight was a close one as it went all five rounds and some people thought Gustafsson won the fight.
The UFC is expected to announce a date for the Cormier vs. Jones fight soon.
What do you think of Jones’ plans? Let us know.
