Jones’ upcoming title defense against Miocic will offer another opportunity to evaluate his abilities against a former champion and compare him to Ngannou’s past performances. Therefore, it will be interesting to see how Jones performs against Miocic and if he can maintain his position as the UFC’s heavyweight champion.

Despite his age, Jones still has a lot of potential for growth and success in the sport. However, it’s essential to acknowledge the downsides of his career as well. While Jones has a remarkable ability to impress us with his skills, he has also caused us to worry about his off-the-field conduct. He has been stripped of his UFC title three times, served multiple suspensions for doping violations, and faced legal troubles, including a domestic violence charge and several arrests related to driving under the influence. Jones has repeatedly demonstrated a tendency for self-destructive behavior that has put his career in jeopardy.

Before a fight card featuring Jones, the UFC should consider changing its usual opening song from “Baba O’Reilly” to “Won’t Get Fooled Again” by The Who. This change would serve as a reminder to fans who have been repeatedly let down by Jones’ promises of reform and transformation that they should not be fooled again. By acknowledging Jones’ past behavior, the UFC can help ensure that fans approach his fights with a more realistic understanding of the athlete and his potential challenges.
