At the UFC On FOX 18 post-fight press conference, UFC Vice President of Public Relations, Dave Sholler, revealed that the promotion plans to make the announcement for Jon Jones vs. Daniel Cormier II “within the next couple of days here.”
Sholler said the following, as transcribed by MMAFighting.com.
“We expect to have an announcement within the next couple of days here,” said Sholler during the post-fight press conference. “Things are shaking out, and I think you guys are going to be pleased with the outcome.”
Jones defeated Cormier in their original match at UFC 182 in January of 2015, winning a unanimous decision to retain his UFC Light Heavyweight Title before being stripped following a hit-and-run incident leading to D.C. becoming the new champion during his hiatus.
