UFC heavyweight champion Jon Jones of the United States has expressed his desire for a fight against light heavyweight belt holder Alex Pereira for the BMF title.
Jones told SportsNet:
Fighting Pereira for the BMF belt, that’d be cool. We both have two belts in two weight classes. The night we fought, we’d both be fighting for our third belt, which would be the BMF. How cool would that be?
Jones last fought against Ciryl Gane in March 2023 at UFC 285. Jon won that fight, which was stopped in the first round, by submission and claimed the UFC heavyweight championship belt. He has 27 wins and one loss on his record.
Alex Pereira last stepped into the octagon in October 2024 at UFC 307, defeating Khalil Rountree by TKO in the fourth round. He has 12 wins and two losses to his name.
