UFC commentator Michael Bisping believes Daniel Cormier’s rivalry with Jon Jones is impacting his views on Jones’ future. Daniel Cormier and Jon Jones faced off twice in their iconic rivalry with Jones coming out on top in both instances – although the second was later changed to a no contest.

The plan is now for ‘Bones’ to make his debut in 2022 and for Cormier, he believes Jones will fight for heavyweight gold but won’t win the title.
