Henry Cejudo has given his ideas on Stipe Miocic’s greatest path to victory when he fights Jon Jones at UFC 290.
Whereas it hasn’t been formally introduced, the UFC has closely teased that Jon Jones will defend his UFC heavyweight championship in opposition to Stipe Miocic throughout Worldwide Struggle Week. Jon captured the belt final weekend when he submitted Ciryl Gane in simply two minutes at UFC 285.
Miocic, in the meantime, hasn’t fought since he was knocked out by Francis Ngannou two years in the past.
Stipe has lengthy since been seen as the perfect heavyweight of all time. Jon Jones, in fact, is the sort of one that desires to take that moniker.
Throughout a current video on his YouTube channel, Henry Cejudo gave his ideas on the challenger’s greatest likelihood of beating the GOAT.
“You’re going to need to wrestle him,” Cejudo stated. “In order that’s the one factor that I may see Stipe Miocic doing, as a result of his fingers, he’s not quicker than Jon. He’s received fingers; he did get an opportunity to cease Cormier with the physique shot. Jon’s simply completely different. Jon has a special size. Jon acknowledges distance lots higher than any individual like DC. The one plan that I see Stipe Miocic going up in opposition to Jon, goes to be referred to as wrestling.
“The one manner that you simply’re going to have the ability to take a man out like Jon Jones is to wrestle, and good luck with that.”
Cejudo’s Miocic recommendation
He continued, “I do imagine Stipe’s largest reward is his threshold, his gasoline tank. How he had the flexibility to climate the storm with a man like Daniel Cormier and beat him. You realize, was harm to start with, finally ends up coming again, like Stipe will get higher because the struggle goes on. Stipe Miocic, the previous heavyweight champion of the world, the best reward that he has is his threshold and endurance. However in opposition to a man like Jon Jones, you want all that and a few. I’m going Jon Jones, not more than three (rounds).”
