Dana White says Jon Jones ‘ready to go,’ expects him to fight Francis Ngannou or Stipe Miocic in UFC return

Jon Jones’ return to the UFC perhaps could be getting closer to come to fruition.

The former UFC light heavyweight champion is apparently ready to make his long-awaited comeback after a more than two-year absence, according to UFC president Dana White. Speaking Monday on “The Jim Rome Show,” White said that Jones is just waiting on an opponent but that he’s good to fight once again.

“Jon Jones is ready to go,” White said. “We’re just waiting for an opponent. It’s either going to be Francis (Ngannou), depending on how long his knee is going to take to recover, or Stipe Miocic.”
