UFC 247 is set for February 8 and with less than a week to go until the pay-per-view event, the UFC has released a new promo video hyping the main event. Jon Jones will be defending the light heavyweight belt against rising superstar Dominick Reyes.
It will be a battle of unbeatens, as Jones, who is widely considered the greatest MMA fighter of all time, is undefeated as a UFC champion. He's only ever been stripped of the title, but has never actually lost while champion. He won the vacant light heavyweight belt in December 2018 by knocking out Alexander Gustafsson and defended it twice in 2019 against Anthony Smith and Thiago Santos (both by decision).
On the other side of the Octagon come Saturday will be Dominick Reyes. He's a perfect 12-0 in his professional career and owns a 6-0 record in the UFC. He's coming off a first-round knockout of Chris Weidman in October and has wins over Volkan Oezdemir and Ovince Saint Preux.
In addition to the light heavyweight title fight between Jones and Reyes, UFC 247's co-main event will feature a flyweight title match between current champion Valentina Shevchenko and Katlyn Chookagian. UFC 247 will be held on February 8 in the Houston Toyota Center.
