Jon Jones hints at a major announcement, while UFC 312 features exciting matchups including du Plessis vs. Strickland.

Jon Jones has stirred excitement among MMA fans with hints of a "huge announcement" that could involve a potential fight against Tom Aspinall, the interim heavyweight champion. Jones, who last showcased his prowess by defeating Stipe Miocic in November, has been somewhat dismissive of Aspinall`s recent success, including a knockout victory over Curtis Blaydes. UFC commentator Jon Anik has suggested that this announcement may pertain to a significant fight or even a new sponsorship deal, leaving fans eagerly anticipating what’s next for the heavyweight champion.

In the featherweight division, Alexander Volkanovski has confirmed his intent to "fight for the title soon," with speculation mounting that he may face Ilia Topuria at UFC 314 in Miami. Volkanovski, who initially aimed to headline UFC 312 in his home state, is now gearing up for a title clash against Topuria, who is also contemplating a move to the lightweight division. Topuria has expressed confidence in his abilities, claiming he represents a new generation of MMA fighters and believes he could submit Volkanovski in a rematch.

UFC 312, set for February 9, promises to deliver thrilling matchups, including Dricus du Plessis defending his middleweight title against Sean Strickland in a highly anticipated rematch. The co-main event features Weili Zhang defending her strawweight title against Tatiana Suarez. Other notable bouts on the card include Justin Tafa vs. Tallison Teixeira, Jimmy Crute vs. Rodolfo Bellato, and Jake Matthews vs. Francisco Prado. Fans in the UK can catch all the action live on TNT Sports, with the main card kicking off at 30 am GMT on Sunday, February 9.
