How to watch UFC 309: Jones vs Miocic, start times, streaming links & more
Stay tuned for all the latest news about the next blockbuster UFC card from New York
UFC's prized mixed martial artists return to New York this week, as the city that never sleeps hosts its annual Fall UFC card. Weโve witnessed some crunch clashes in the Big Apple in recent years, including Adesanya vs Pereira, Usman vs Covington, and Masvidal vs Diaz, and the forthcoming UFC 309 card at Madison Square Garden promises to be just as exhilarating as two legends of the sport collide.
The top-of-the-bill bout, Jon Jones vs Stipe Miocic, is a heavyweight encounter in weight and status, as the fighters have forged hallowed paths in the MMA world. The pair had been expected to headline at UFC 295 last November, but Jones withdrew due to a pectoral muscle injury. Jones will defend the heavyweight crown he secured when beating Ciryl Gane in the opening round of their March 2023 UFC 285 clash in Las Vegas.
Jonesโs first heavyweight encounter after stepping up from the light heavyweight weight class, a category in which he had reigned as a two-time world champ. In most eyes, Jon 'Bones' Jones will still seek to maintain an unbeaten career. The only two small blemishes on his immaculate MMA record were the โno contestโ against Daniel Cormier in 2017, following a failed drugs test, and his 2009 'disqualification' loss to Matt Hamill, where Jones was deemed to have illegally used his elbows.

Jones became the youngest champion in UFC history. When he was just 23, he took the light heavyweight crown off Mauricio Rua's head at UFC 128 back in 2011. โBonesโ has since held many UFC records in the light heavyweight division, including โmost title defenses,โ โmost wins,โ and โlongest win streak'. Despite making his MMA debut way back in 2008, amazingly, this will be Jon Jones's first-ever appearance in his home state of New York, so the onus will be on him to give a good impression, especially after being out of octagon action for 20 months. His opponent at MSG, Stipe Miocic, has been inactive for even longer.
We havenโt seen the Ohio man, whoโs now 42, since he lost to Francis Ngannou in their rematch at UFC 260 in March 2021. The lengthy time away from the cage may be a concern for some, but the goal of becoming only the second man to be a three-time division champ will keep the fire of ambition burning brightly in Miocicโs belly.

Blessed with thunderous power and tremendous wrestling skills, whatever happens at The Garden this November, Stipe Miocic has already cemented his place in the UFC history books. His memorable victories against Francis Ngannou, Alistair Overeem, and Fabricio Werdum will never be forgotten.
The co-main event in New York is a lightweight rematch between former UFC champion Charles Oliveira and former three-time Bellator king Michael Chandler. The pair previously clashed at UFC 262 in May 2021, where Oliveira won by TKO in the second round.
