UFC 245 is all set to take place on December 15 at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. It will be the final pay-per-view event of 2019 and if what reports indicate is right then it will be an absolute stacked card.
The UFC is going all-in for UFC 245, as according to Ariel Helwani of ESPN, the year-end card could feature at least three title fights. Amanda Nunes vs. Germaine De Randamie was already confirmed for UFC 245. Now featherweight title fight between Max Holloway and Alexander Volkanovski along with Kamaru Usman’s title defence could also take place at UFC 245.
Speaking of the Dec. 14 ppv, wouldn’t be surprised if they end up with 3 title fights or at the very least 2 on that card (Nunes, Holloway, Usman).

“Speaking of the Dec. 14 ppv, wouldn’t be surprised if they end up with 3 title fights or at the very least 2 on that card (Nunes, Holloway, Usman).” Helwani tweeted.
Initially, it was speculated that UFC light heavyweight champion Jon Jones could fight in the year-end card, but with Jacare Souza vs. Jan Blachowicz fight being finalised for UFC Fight Night event in November in Brazil, the prospect of Jones fighting again this year looks slim.
Jones fought at UFC 239 in July against Thiago Santos and he defeated the Brazilian via a razor-thin decision.
Do you guys think Jon Jones will fight again this year?
