Filed under: News , UFC UFC President Dana White still doesn’t feel confident enough to put Jon Jones at the top of a fight card. Even with Jones’ rematch queued up against light-heavyweight champion Daniel Cormier after this past weekend’s UFC 210 event, White has doubts about whether it will materialize – and he doesn’t want to shell out the money to make it a main event. “If Jones fights, Jones is going to be a co-main event anyway,” he said after this past Saturday’s pay-per-view card at KeyBank Center in Buffalo, N.Y. White was talking about the possibility of installing Cormier vs. Jone 2 at the top of UFC 213 lineup, which takes place July 8 at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. One day before the event, Jones’ suspension for an anti-doping violation ends, making him technically eligible to fight
