Any guy in the division would give you the same answer to that question.” Jones (21-1 MMA, 15-1 UFC) remains indefinitely suspended following an alleged hit-and-run incident in April that resulted in the UFC stripping his light heavyweight title prior to a title fight with Anthony Johnson (19-5 MMA, 10-5 UFC) in May at UFC 187. Cormier (16-1 MMA, 5-1 UFC), who was outpointed by Jones in January at UFC 182, was tapped to fight Johnson for the vacant belt and won via third-round submission .
