Jones remains favorite in potential Lesnar superfight
Oddsmakers still like Jon Jones' chances against WWE star and former UFC champion Brock Lesnar should they ever meet in the Octagon.
Just as they did last summer, Bovada has pegged Jones as the favorite in the potential superfight at -350, while Lesnar is listed at +265.
Lesnar signed a new contract with WWE in April, which reportedly allows him to compete in at least one UFC fight. He still has six months left to serve on his suspension for a failed 2016 drug test, though, and would need to re-enter the United State Anti-Doping Agency testing pool for the clock to start ticking on the ban.
Jones, meanwhile, had his MMA license revoked by the California State Athletic Commission after failing a drug test at UFC 214 and faces a possible four-year suspension.
UFC president Dana White told TMZ Sports recently that both sides are open to a fight, saying, "Jon Jones is very interested in Brock Lesnar and Brock is very interested in Jon Jones."
