UFC 197: THE BIGGEST RETURN EVER???

Daniel Cormier VS Jon Jones
Is the return of the former light heavyweight champion Jon Jones the biggest return ever? Jon Jones is the pound-for-pound number 1 fighter in the UFC, a champion who has never lost his belt inside the octagon and in most peoples eyes is undefeated. In his way stands Daniel Cormier, the current champion, since his loss to Jones in January of 2015 he beat the number 2 and 3 contenders Alexander Gustafson and Anthony Johnson. Daniel Cormier's submission of Anthony Johnson was one of his most impressive victories after weathering an early storm of huge punches from Johnson.

DC is arguably better than their last encounter and the big question is will this fight go the same way as the last one and unfortunately I can't find many ways that it will be different. Jon Jones is now more determined and much stronger, I feel it will be very hard for DC to land a takedown and Jones' attacks will now have more effect. Also if Jones learns to properly use his huge 12 inch reach advantage which he failed to do in the last fight then it will be a very long fight for Daniel. The only chance I see DC having is Jones gassing out in the later rounds with the added muscle he now has.

So unfortunately for Daniel my prediction is that Jones will return with a bang and will finish Daniel in the later rounds, 4 and 5, to return to the top of the light heavyweight division and the UFC.
