NFL legend Tom Brady sent a message of support to Jon Jones ahead of the iconic heavyweight's return to the Octagon and headline UFC 285 in Las Vegas on Saturday night.
Jones hasn’t fought since defending his light-heavyweight title for the last time against Dominick Reyes in February 2020. The UFC legend first hinted at a move up to heavyweight over a decade ago, but he will finally debut in the weight class when he faces Gane for the vacant title.
Gane has previously held the interim belt at the weight class but lost out on the chance to win the undisputed belt when he was beaten by Francis Ngannou in January 2021. It makes for a blockbuster clash, with many fans eager to see how Jones fares in his first fight in nearly three years.
