Jones has been part of the main event in each of his UFC appearances in the last 15 years. However, he is willing to give up the main event slot if he fights Pereira at the White House with no title on the line.
A fan asked him about this and Jones replied with one word:
“Absolutely!”
Check out Jon Jones’ reply to the fan below:
Jones’ last UFC card where he wasn’t the main event or fought for a title was against Ryan Bader. This fight took place at UFC 126 in February 2011.
Dana White unsure about Jon Jones fighting at UFC White House
While Jon Jones continues to push for a fight at the White House, UFC CEO Dana White isn’t too sure about this.
White is still upset with Jones over the American’s decision to turn down a fight with current UFC heavyweight champion Tom Aspinall.
White claimed that Jones had signed a deal before he decided not to go ahead with the brawl. Speaking on the FLAGRANT podcast, the UFC CEO opened up about this situation:
“I haven’t said yes or no to anybody yet, but I can’t put Jon Jones in a position where he can… I had a deal with him to fight Tom Aspinall, we had a deal and he said, ‘I am not going to do it.’”
Jones has since apologized to White for his actions. No fights for the White House event have been confirmed with White stating that planning for the card will start in February 2026.
