Jones’ next opponent hasn’t been decided yet and though the champion himself said Jan Blachowicz should get the next shot at his title, popular opinion is that Jones should defend his title against Reyes in a rematch of the pair’s enthralling battle in the main event of UFC 247 where Jones barely scraped out with a unanimous decision win.
“JonesWill fight Reyes for appropriate reward”, says Jones
After the fight, UFC president Dana White said he would definitely like to see a rematch between Jones and Reyes. Jones took to Twitter to reveal that he is more than willing to run it back with Reyes given that the UFC pays him accordingly. Jones also mentioned that if the UFC isn’t willing to treat it as a super fight and offer him a big paycheck, he might as well fight the “next guy in line” - Jan Blachowicz.
Jones also teased a move to the heavyweight division and claimed that he’d love to have a catchweight fight at 220lbs as preparation for his climb to the UFC’s big boys club.
