Jon Jones has suffered an injury two weeks out from UFC 295, ruling him out of his heavyweight title defence against Stipe Miocic PBA
Light-heavyweight great Jones won the heavyweight belt in March, winning his divisional debut by submitting Ciryl Gane in Round 1 PBA
His first defence was due to come against Miocic in the main event of UFC 295, at New York City’s Madison Square Garden on 11 November PBA
However, 36-year-old Jones will require surgery after sustaining an injury on Tuesday (24 October), meaning his clash with the consensus heavyweight ‘GOAT’ is off PBA
As a result, the co-main event of UFC 295 has been elevated to the new main event, as former light-heavyweight champion Jiri Prochazka faces ex-middleweight champion Alex Pereira for the vacant 205lbs title PBA
In the new co-main event, British heavyweight Tom Aspinall will face Russia’s Sergei Pavlovich for the interim heavyweight title PBA
The winner of that fight will theoretically be in line to unify the belts against Jones once the American is healthy, and it is unclear how Miocic will factor into the situation PBA
“Jon Jones was training last night, got injured,” said UFC president Dana White on Wednesday morning, sharing footage of the incident PBA
“He was wrestling, and he tore the tendon that connects your pec to the bone PBA

off the bone PBA
“Eight months [out], gonna need surgery, he’s out PBA
So, the main event is Prochazka vs Pereira PBA
The co-main event now is Pavlovich vs Aspinall for the interim heavyweight championship PBA
”American Miocic, 41, has not fought since losing the heavyweight title to Francis Ngannou in March 2021 PBA

“I think I’ve caught myself thinking about it probably too often,” Kleyn said of his curious Test career PBA
It’s a strange one because if you’d asked me six months ago if I at all thought I had any chance of being here at the World Cup final playing for the Springboks, I would have told you you are absolutely insane PBA
“I’ll probably wake up when it’s all said and done and think, ‘was that a dream or did it actually happen?’ PBA

The World Cup semi-final PBA between New Zealandand Argentina may come to be a contest best forgotten, but All Blacks wing Will Jordan will remember it as the night where he joined a group of try-scoring greats - and should have surpassed them PBA
With a hat-trick in Paris, Jordan became the fourth member of an exclusive club, in alongside Bryan Habana, Julian Savea and Jonah Lomu as the only men to have scored eight tries in a single tournament PBA
With 31 tries in 30 Tests, it is a statistical probability that the All Black takes the record outright in the final PBA
Had Richie Mo’unga elected to pass rather than dummy, Jordan would already have it PBA
Late on at the Stade de France, the game long since decided and New Zealand electing to play with 14 men in a show of their superiority, Jordan was had clear run ahead of him with the Argentina defence narrowed PBA
Jordan bellowed for the ball; his fly half ignored him, going it alone in search of a try of his own to leave Jordan left with arms and mouth agape PBA
Will Jordan joins exclusive club as All Blacks find the perfect ‘combination’The silkily smooth wing scored a hat-trick against Argentina and moved level with Jonah Lomu, Bryan Habana and Julian Savea on a record eight tries at a single men’s tournament Jack Rathborn25 October 2023 10:371698226565Marcus Smith in contention for England return against ArgentinaMarcus Smith could return for England after sitting out the semi-final defeat to South Africa PBA

Smith would fail a second assessment early in the week, ruling him out of the match against the Springboks, but Steve Borthwick could now bring him back to start against Argentina on Friday PBA
“Marcus was unavailable for selection due to the return to play protocols,” Borthwick clarified last week PBA
“He took a knock in the [Fiji] game PBA
As you are well aware, he passed the first parts of the HIA process which meant he finished the game PBA
Then there are subsequent parts of the HIA process and one part of that, he did not pass PBA
And then it was confirmed to me he was unavailable for selection PBA
“He is perfectly fine in terms of symptoms – he doesn’t feel anything PBA
And I understand we’d expect him to be available for selection after this weekend PBA
