UFC 285 marked the return of the former Light heavyweight champion, Jon Jones as he stepped up a weight class to challenge the number one ranked Heavyweight in the UFC roster, Ciryl Gane. There were many questions leading up to this fight, most of which circulated around Jones’ three-year layoff, however, it only took Bones 2 minutes and 4 seconds to claim the Heavyweight title. The incredibly impressive performance had nearly everyone crowning Jones as the greatest ever, but one Francis Ngannou took that moment to remind the people who the last undisputed UFC Heavyweight champion really was.
