UFC champ Jon Jones ponders superfight with Chris Weidman

As long as we’re in fantasyland, where one fan went at a Q&A session prior to Friday’s weigh-ins for UFC 169, Jones might as well weigh in on the possibility of yet another superfight.

After all, superfights usually are the territory of fantasy, and one between the light heavyweight and middleweight champions is as good an occasion as any.

And putting two native New Yorkers in the cage in the country’s most famous fight venue (where MMA currently is banned), well, can there be a bigger pie in the sky?

“I don’t want to offend him; I think he’s a great guy,” said the 26-year-old Jones, treading lightly on a subject that isn’t exactly a hot topic among MMA fans. “But I’m a very confident young man. So I’ll just leave it at that.”

Jones always has been confident, of course. It’s what has made him such a polarizing force among fans. But would he really do it? With a previous superfight with Anderson Silva now on ice, is he open to the idea?

Check out the video above and see what else Jones has to say about the matter.
