Daniel Cormier’s Bold Prediction: Jon Jones’ Retirement Hinges on UFC 295 Defeat
As the countdown to UFC 295’s clash between Jon Jones and Stipe Miocic accelerates, former UFC Heavyweight Champion Daniel Cormier has thrown a captivating twist into the mix. Cormier’s assertion, unveiled during ESPN MMA’s DC & RC show, asserts that only a defeat to Miocic would usher Jon Jones into retirement.
Despite Jones’ triumphant return at UFC 285, where he seized the heavyweight title with a resounding victory over Ciryl Gane, discussions about his potential retirement have flourished. While Jones has alluded to the possibility of hanging up his gloves post-fight, Cormier challenges this narrative, highlighting Jones’ youth and financial incentives as counterarguments.
Cormier proposes an intriguing scenario: “I do believe that if Stipe loses, he’s done. Jon Jones loses, he might be done. That’s the only way Jones will retire.” This perspective adds an unforeseen layer of tension and anticipation to the upcoming battle.
