Jon Jones Eyes BMF Title Fight With Alex Pereira, Interim Title Unnecessary
Briefly

Jones expressed his willingness to fight Pereira for a third belt, stating, 'It'd be cool to fight over the heavyweight championship but I would also willingly give up the heavyweight championship.' He emphasized his desire to walk away on his own terms, valuing his well-being and financial success. The prospect of adding the 'BMF' title alongside his current accolades excites Jones, highlighting the appeal of competing against another dual champion like Pereira.
Regarding the interim championship, Jones commented, 'The interim championship shouldn't have been there in the first place. The only reason why there was an interim championship fight was because I got hurt and they needed to keep the importance of that Madison Square Garden event.' He criticized the decision to label the fight as an interim title, suggesting it resulted in confusion among fans.
