UFC 197’s main and co-main event feature the two biggest Vegas favorites on the entire fight card.
That tends to happen when you have the No. 1 and No. 2 pound-for-pound fighters in the world headlining the action. Jon Jones and Demetrious Johnson, who have combined to win their last 21 fights inside the Octagon, are easily two of the greatest MMA artists on the planet, and it would serve as a major shock if either walked away from Las Vegas as a loser.
Nevertheless, that doesn’t mean it’s not an intriguing card. Jones’ return to the Octagon is compelling even if it isn’t the rematch against Daniel Cormier that everyone wanted to see, while there are a slew of other fights–two on the main card–that could go either way.
