With his UFC on Versus 1 win over Brandon Vera this past Sunday, light
heavyweight Jon Jones (10-1 MMA, 4-1 UFC) seems to have elevated his
status from “bright prospect” to “developing superstar.”
And there is no bigger fan of Jones than UFC president Dana White, who
openly praised the 22-year-old “Bones” following his first-round win.
But despite another impressive performance by Jones in is first-round
win, White said he doesn’t believe his newest star is quite ready for
title contention.
