Scared of Israel so moved up. Hopefully Israel dominates light heavy and moves up to heavy...I know he probably couldn’t do it
Triple champ would be insane

I don't think anyone can claim Jones is scared of a Middleweight if he's willing to step up to Heavyweight with no tune-up fights and go straight in with Stipe or Ngannou.
I think Adesanya is amazing, but he's been more responsible for avoiding the Jones fight than anyone else. He's only stepped up to Light Heavy as soon as Jones has exited the division.

Just noticed that in just over a month, it's possible that the champions of the top four weight classes will all be African.

Usman is probably P4P #1 now given his record, the level of fighter he's beaten, and the manner of those wins. Totally outclassed Woodley and Masvidal, in addition to brutal stoppages of Covington and Burns.
I don't think GSP comes back at the moment for Usman, but if Usman keeps going, and builds up enough noise, then that super fight could be more appealing to lure GSP back.
Ngannou is a weird one. The first fight against Stipe was so one-sided it's hard to see a different outcome in the re-match IMO. If Jones wins the Heavyweight title from Stipe then the debate around the all-time GOAT is well and truly over.
