UFC 247: Preview

Jon Jones is currently std with GSP with 13 successful title defences and a victory against Reyes will mark him as fighter with most number of title defences (14). However, Dominick Reyes who is yet to taste a defeat in his MMA career can d an inevitable fear in his crown by becoming first man to defeat Jon 'Bones' Jones.

Valentina Shevchenko vs Katlyn Chookagian is also expected to be a thriller since both women have been fierce in ir latest run-in UFC. While Valentina Shevchenko stands as favourite in fight, a lot of fans believe that Katlyn is capable of handing Valentina a loss at UFC 247.
