Jon Jones has come under a lot of scrutiny following Alexander Gustafsson’s win earlier this month at UFC Fight Night London; claiming that the Swede should now fight Daniel Cormier. When Showdown Joe interviewed Phil Davis recently for Sportsnet Canada ‘Mr. Wonderful’ gave his thoughts on Jon Jones the match maker.
“Why not get him a job? Throw him on payroll. See what he can really do with the lightweights. He seems to matchmaker so well. I don’t know. I feel bad for [Jones], but he put himself into an interesting predicament. ‘Why not just have a light heavyweight tournament and have the winner fight Jon Jones?’ That’s pretty much what he’s saying. ‘You guys should have a tournament.’ Call it ‘The Ultimate Jon Jones Fighting Championship.’
Jon Jones faces Glover Teixiera on April 26th at UFC 172 in Baltimore, Maryland for the UFC Light Heavyweight championship.
