It’s clear who Jon Jones is backing in the upcoming middleweight title fight between Robert Whittaker and Israel Adesanya.
Jones was recently doing some promotional work for UFC 239. He will defend his light heavyweight title against Thiago Santos on July 6 headlining International Fight Week. During a segment, Jones was asked for his thoughts on middleweight champion Robert Whittaker.
“Bones” called Whittaker a “stand-up guy” and said he wants to see him “stomp a mudhole” in interim 170-pound champion Israel Adesanya when they fight. Whittaker shared the clip on his Instagram, captioning it with, “Nothing but respect mate!” Here’s what Jones had to say:
“Real deal,” Jones said. “I’ve got nothing but respect for him. He’s just like a stand-up guy. I can’t wait to see him stomp a mudhole in Adesanya.”
It’s no secret that Jones and Adesanya have issues with one another. It’s believed the pair could eventually matchup with one another in the coming years. For now, Adesanya is expected to attempt and unify his 185-pound crown with Whittaker’s at UFC 243 on pay-per-view (PPV) in October.
In a follow-up comment on Whittaker’s post, Jones also volunteered to help Whittaker train for his fight against “Stylebender”:
“Just keeping it real, would be honored to train with you leading up to your fight. Let’s get you more than ready”

Things are looking good for an eventual clash between Israel Adesanya and Robert Whittaker.
The pair are expected to unify their UFC middleweight titles at the recently announced UFC 243 pay-per-view (PPV) in Melbourne, Australia. However, “Stylebender” is unsure whether or not Whittaker will show up given his injury history. Speaking to Submission Radio recently, Adesanya said he wouldn’t be surprised to see betting lines on if “Bobby Knuckles” will pull out of the bout:
“You can’t judge that last fight and say – I mean, you can take whatever, you can say, he gets hit a lot. Cool. That’s what you get from that fight. People are gonna say Kelvin’s got a hard chin, Kelvin’s so tough. I’m like, Ni**a, I don’t like to brag, but I looked like a f*cking potato after that fight, I took some shots. But not once did my ass hit the ground. Kelvin’s ass hit the ground like five or six times, even seven. So, I mean, you could say whatever you want, I just stay calm composed. And I’ve been through a lot of adversity. The way we train is different.
“We push to the breaking point, but we’re smart about it. That’s why we don’t get hurt and pull out of every single fight. I’m going to put a wager out there and see if he makes it to the fight. Cause for me, I’m keeping that same energy with the way I train. If he is… is he gonna make it to the fight? So, I’m prepared for him, but I don’t know if he’s gonna make it to the fight. That’s just history. They should put a wager on ‘will Robert make it to this fight? Will he pull out of this fight?’ and put odds on that based on all his other fights. That should be a new wager that gets added to the odds.”
Adesanya captured middleweight gold back in April when he defeated Kelvin Gastelum for the interim 185-pound throne. Now, the pair of New Zealanders will face off “Down Under” in what has the potential to be, undoubtedly, the biggest fight the continent has ever seen.

It looks like Robert Whittaker and Israel Adesanya’s UFC title unification clash will be getting the stadium treatment it deserves.
According to a report by Combate (h/t Aaron Bronsteter), both fighters are set to clash at UFC 243 which will now take place at the 55,000 plus capacity Marvel Stadium on October 5 in Melbourne, Australia.
The report comes right after UFC president Dana White claimed the fight would still be taking place in Australia. There were recent reports earlier claiming the fight would be moved from Sydney to Las Vegas because it clashed with the NRL Grand Final.
It was also previously reported that the plan was for UFC 243 to take place at the Bankwest Stadium in Sydney, which could hold up to 30,000 seats. However, such is the magnitude of the fight that it will now take place in the larger Marvel Stadium.
The UFC previously went to the Marvel Stadium for UFC 193 in November 2015 where fans witnessed Ronda Rousey lose to Holly Holm. The event attracted a UFC-record 56,214 fans. However, one can imagine the buzz will be even bigger for what is being dubbed as the biggest Australasian fight in combat sports history.
Adesanya, who grew up in New Zealand, earned the right to face Australia’s middleweight king Whittaker following his interim title win over Kelvin Gastelum at UFC 236. There also appears to be friction between the two which will only increase the anticipation for this fight.
There are no other details as of now regarding the rest of the card.
