The light heavyweight champion (up to 93kg.), Jon Jones is close to yet another title defense. Against the undefeated Dominick reyes, in a fight that takes place this Saturday (8), for UFC 247, the North American hopes to maintain his hegemony in the category but, depending on Joe Rogan, 'Bones' needs to be careful not to be surprised by his opponent.

"I think that Dominick reyes is the most dangerous fighter Jon Jones will face from Daniel Cormier,” Rogan said.
The official Ultimate commentator and interviewer made a point of highlighting the challenger's outstanding characteristics that make him an athlete who can pose a real threat to Jones.
"I Think Dominick reyes presents a very unique set of challenges. Firstly, the length. The undefeated record, he has 12 wins and zero losses. There is a confidence that comes with undefeated records, and Dominick is supremely confident. He's a believer in himself and that belief in himself has led him to stop guys like Chris Weidman, knocking out OSP (Ovince saint preux) with one second left. He has faith in his power. He has legit one-punch knockout power. He has great footwork,” Rogan said.
Debuting in Ultimate in June 2017, Reyes needed six appearances before qualifying for his dream title fight. The athlete, who has been a professional in MMA since 2014, has become known for his physical strength and great knockout power.
Against Jones, Dominick will reach the mark of 13 fights on his record. The North American has never been defeated in an official confrontation.
