Jones Makes White House UFC Card After Billion-to-One Odds

Jon Jones looks certain to fight on the UFC's White House card, despite Dana White previously calling the odds 'a billion-to-one'. The former champion unretired when he learned of the event, after initially retiring and vacating his title.

Jones is reportedly negotiating to face Alex Pereira, who vacated the light heavyweight title this past weekend. The bout could be for the interim heavyweight title, with Tom Aspinall's return uncertain. As the only American fighter with sufficient reputation, Jones is positioned to carry the flag for the 250-year-anniversary celebration of American independence.
