Jon Jones vs Stipe Miocic Prediction
Approaching the ripe age of 40, Stipe Miocic is determined to step back into the octagon, ready to take on not only the newly crowned heavyweight champion but also the legendary Jon Jones, hailed as the GOAT (Greatest of All Time) following his remarkable display at UFC 285.
Stipe’s most recent triumph dates back to August 2020 when he emerged victorious against Daniel Cormier, effectively concluding their intense trilogy with a 2-1 record in Stipe’s favor. A proud native of Cleveland, he has also achieved notable victories over Francis Ngannou, Junior dos Santos, Alistar Overeem, and once again, Francis Ngannou.
Jones, on the contrary, showcased absolute dominance over the light heavyweight division starting from 2011, successfully defending his title a remarkable eleven times.
While his last three bouts at 205 pounds left the judges with tight decisions, causing some to speculate that “Bones” might be approaching the end of his reign, a mere three-year hiatus and a daring move up to the heavyweight division have rekindled his fire. Presently, Jones exudes an even greater sense of motivation, unwavering focus.
Seeing the new heavyweight champion in good spirits surrounded by family, clearly means he’s in a good position in life. Jones is his own worst enemy at times, and if he is mentally dialed then he’s unstoppable as Ciryl Gane can attest to.
When it comes to the stand-up Jones and Miocic could make for a really competitive and fun match-up. Stipe has the best boxing in the heavyweight division, technically sound with great footwork. Jones too can bring a lot of technical striking to the table, with even more diverse striking from his kicks and elbows.
Miocic weight 233 pounds in his last UFC win over Cormier, and the former champ used the light heavyweight to his advantage. When Miocic fights Jones, I don’t expect to see him come in as light, Jones has become remarkably stronger and while being agile will be key – he’ll need to have the strength to grapple and stand his ground against Jones.
The smart bet here is the fight doesn’t go the distance. Stipe will be a live underdog and be up for the challenge, overall this heavyweight version of Jones is the deserved favorite.

“Honestly, I thought it was going to be a decision,” Miocic said during the UFC 285 post-fight show. “I didn’t know how Jon was, he took three years off but hats off to him. You see some things, I’ll keep them to myself but I definitely see some things [I can use].
“It’s a fight, he won, good for him. Hats off, but unfortunately, he’s got to fight me in July.”
