Israel Adesanya has backed Cyril Gane to beat long-term nemesis Jon Jones in his UFC 285 comeback fight.
UFC superstar Jones will return to the octagon for the first time since 2020 when he makes a switch to the heavyweight division. There will be immediate high stakes for 'Bones' who is looking to become a two-weight champion against a lively contender who was narrowly edged by Francis Ngannou who recently vacated his title.
Jones will likely go into the contest as the favourite given his pedigree in the sport which has seen him beaten just once by disqualification. However 'The Last Stylebender' has suggested Gane will have the edge when the pair do battle, but he is excited to see an intriguing prospect in action.
