Jon Jones contemplating fights at heavyweight

If Jones does decide to take a fight at heavyweight, it will be because the right situation presents itself. He looks towards a UFC Hall of Famer for how he wants to guide his own career.

“I kind of like how Randy (Couture) has done it all throughout his MMA career,” Jones said. “With the right fight, I would definitely take a fight at heavyweight, but my dreams and my goals are all at the light heavyweight division, and I don’t want anything to get twisted saying I want to fight Cain (Velasquez) or any of the top heavyweights. If there was a cool fight stylistically for me at heavyweight, I’d give something to the fans and fight at a bigger weight.”
