Gable Steveson hints at Jon Jones' potential UFC return at media day

UFC 331, scheduled for this weekend, has sparked discussion about Jon Jones' possible return. Gable Steveson, who is set to fight on the main card, suggested during a media interview that Jones is motivated by the recent vacancy in the heavyweight title following Tom Aspinall's decision to step down due to injury. Aspinall's exit leaves Ciryl Gane as the current champion, with questions now surrounding his first title defense. Steveson, who trains with Jones, indicates that he believes Jones could still compete at a high level, although a return from Jones could invite controversy regarding his past decisions in the heavyweight division. As speculation continues, fans await clarity on Jones' intentions.
