#3. The one-off mega-fight between Brock Lesnar and Jon Jones finally comes to fruition
Ad
Brock Lesnar and Jon Jones is a fight that has been highly talked of
The news of Brock Lesnar finally being a free agent broke out days after Jon Jones announced his move to the UFC's Heavyweight Division. Coincidence? Could be, could be not. However, like mentioned in the previous slide, if there is one fight that makes sense the most and that would generate millions for the UFC, its a clash between Brock Lesnar and Jon Jones.
In the past, the two men have had their issues with one another and following Jon Jones historic win over his arch-rival Daniel Cormier at UFC 214 in 2017, the two-time UFC Light Heavyweight Champion immediately went on to call out Brock Lesnar for a fight, challenging to step into the Octagon against someone who weighed 40 less than The Beast Incarnate.
However, that doesn't seem to be the case anymore, as Jon Jones is in full preparation of his run in the heavyweight division and if Lesnar is to return under the UFC banner, a fight between the former UFC Light Heavyweight and Heavyweight Champion is the bout to book. Even if it means for Brock Lesnar to compete on just a one-off occasion inside the Octagon.
