Brock Lesnar, currently under contract with WWE, could end up returning to UFC either late this year or after WrestleMania next year, with Jones waiting for him.<\/p>\n<p>UFC is looking to turn Jones into a top-tier PPV draw along the lines of Ronda Rousey, Conor McGregor, or Lesnar. A fight against Lesnar, with Jones moving up to the heavyweight division, is a possible avenue for that.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m up for it,&#8221; Jones said on FS1&#8217;s UFC 214 post-fight show. &#8220;I think it&#8217;s about time for me to be involved in a super-fight. I think that&#8217;s what the fans really want to see &#8211; is me challenge myself against a heavyweight. Why not do against the biggest and one of the most scary heavyweights in UFC history in Brock Lesnar. He brings a tremendous following and I think it would be so great for the sport of MMA.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><em>Keller&#8217;s Analysis: What pro wrestling or MMA fan wouldn&#8217;t plan their weekend around watching that fight live?<\/em><\/p>\n<form action=\"https:\/\/poll.pollcode.com\/47482747\" method=\"post\">\n<div style=\"background-color: #eeeeee;
