In a heavyweight championship bout in the main event, Jon Jones takes on Ciryl Gane Saturday at UFC 285 at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. Let’s analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the UFC 285: Jones vs. Gane odds, and make our expert picks and predictions.
The early prelims are on ESPN+ at 5:30 p.m. ET, with the prelims on ESPNNews/ESPN+ starting at 8 p.m. ET. The main card begins on Pay-Per-View at 10 p.m. ET.
Jones, a.k.a. “Bones”, returns to the octagon for the first time in 3 years due to some issues off the canvas. Jones won a title fight at UFC 247 against Dominick Reyes in his most recent match on Feb. 8, 2020. Bones has won and defended all 15 title fights he’s had — with the exception of one no-contest — since topping Mauricio Rua at UFC 128 on March 19, 2011.
It’s been a heckuva run, and a win against Gane to grab the strap would cement his legacy if he hasn’t already done so.
