Jon Jones has confessed he would like to challenge for the heavyweight belt in the future, admitting “there is no greater honor” in the sport than being heavyweight champion.

A Strikeforce v UFC champion v champion encounter with Dan Henderson could also be on his future agenda after Henderson said he would like the fight, but brother Arthur is predicting his brother will hit the very top.

“I’m telling you, he’s going to be a heavyweight champion someday,” said Arthur, a player on the NFL’s Baltimore Ravens..

“Every sport he has ever played throughout high school — unlike me — he’s always been the captain. He’s always been the best on the defense. Always the best on the wrestling team. He is a born leader.
