Jones: I have the skill set to beat Cain Velasquez
Jon Jones: “But if I do go to heavyweight or when I do go to heavyweight, I do believe I have the skill set to beat [Cain Velasquez].”
Jon Jones hasn’t quite cleared out the light heavyweight division, but to speculate about a move to heavyweight is fun to consider, and Jones believe he has tools to beat heavyweight champion Cain Velasquez:
“I don’t know when I’m going to move up in weight. I’ve entertained the thought of going to heavyweight so many times, and I think right now with all due respect to Anthony (Johnson), I believe I’ll win that fight and get into super fights and rematches,” Jones said at the UFC “Welcome to the Show” news conference Saturday.
“But if I do go to heavyweight or when I do go to heavyweight, I do believe I have the skill set to beat Cain.”
