UFC Hall of Famer Randy Couture believes Jon Jones has “all the tools he needs” to step up a division and take on former heavyweight champion Brock Lesnar.
The 54-year-old American said he does not think there is “any doubt” Jones could, with the right training, take on Lesnar, per TMZ Sports:
“He can compete with Lesnar. He’s long, rangy, a great wrestler, very dynamic striking. He’s got all the tools he needs to compete with Lesnar. He’s got to get some very big partners and get used to it. Worst-case scenario, he gets knocked down and Lesnar gets on top of him. He’s got to be able to survive that. So we’ll see.“
