If you’re not excited to watch tonight’s UFC 247 card, you might change your mind after watching the event’s opener.

Jon Jones vs. Dominick Reyes

In the main event, Dominick Reyes will try to shock the world by handing light-heavyweight champ, Jon Jones, his first legitimate loss.

Reyes (12-0) has been booked for the massive opportunity following his knockout win over Chris Weidman in October, which moved his Octagon record to 6-0.

Jones (25-1), meanwhile, defended the 205 crown in July by working his way to a tightly contested, split decision win over Thiago Santos. Jones has defended the light-heavyweight title twice in his latest run as champ.
