Jon Jones, the former UFC champion, has responded to criticism following his recent retirement by highlighting the unusual scrutiny he faces despite his dominant career. Shortly after retiring, Jones re-entered the UFC's anti-doping testing pool, indicating a potential return to competition. He expressed openness to fighting whoever holds the heavyweight title at the time, particularly at a proposed UFC event to be held at the White House, which he described as a historic opportunity. Jones conveyed enthusiasm about entertaining the country and the world on such a prestigious stage. Alongside Jones, Conor McGregor has also confirmed his return to the UFC and re-entered the anti-doping program in preparation for the same White House event. Both fighters' returns signal a significant moment for the UFC, with Jones calling the event potentially bigger than the Thrilla in Manila. Jones's comments suggest a strong likelihood of his participation in the upcoming UFC card if he remains champion next year.
