The New York native (Jon Jones) is a goal-orientated fighter, and once his work at light heavyweight is done, a “super fight” against reigning heavyweight champion Cain Velasquez is the next goal on Jones’ career hit list.
“I think that’s going to happen in the next two years,” he said. “I’ll go up to heavyweight permanently. I’m looking to take a super fight sooner or later, within the next year.
“I’ve really been thinking about me and Cain Velasquez going at it. I think that would be huge for the sport. He’s definitely the toughest guy in the division and he’s not that big, so I think it would be a really entertaining fight. So don’t be surprised if you see that sooner or later.”
