Former interim UFC heavyweight champion Ciryl Gane is looking to make a return to the octagon during the first quarter of this new year, and he has his sights set on perhaps the greatest mixed martial arts fighter to ever walk the earth, Jon Jones.
Gane recently tweeted the following message on his Twitter account:
“Where you at @JonnyBones? I’m free this March, Vegas”
This would be a very exciting clash of the titans, though the UFC’s goal was to book Jones against current heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou.
But, they’ve been attempting to schedule that fight for some time now.
It was supposed to go down on December 10 of last year, it didn’t. Then it was supposed to happen in the first three months of 2023, but it doesn’t look like things are going the best in regards to the match up, with Ngannou’s head coach stating it’s a ’50/50′ chance of it happening in March.
That’s probably the biggest, baddest, and greatest fight the UFC could put on right now; one of, if not the greatest fighter in history, certainly the greatest light-heavyweight ever, versus the heavyweight…
