On Saturday, Israel Adesanya will try to secure the title Jon Jones once held. But, apparently, the former light heavyweight champ doesn’t see that happening.

The middleweight champ Adesanya will challenge Jan Blachowicz for his light heavyweight belt at UFC 259. On Friday, it was reported that Jones tweeted out “Jan by KO”, before deleting the tweet.

Jones, who has feuded with Adesanya extensively in the preceding months, vacated the light heavyweight belt to make a run at heavyweight.

The 33-year-old Jones (26-1) last competed in February, 2020, when he won a tightly contested decision against Dominick Reyes.

Blachowicz faced Reyes for the vacant light heavyweight title in September, and stopped the latter in round two.
