Jon Jones made it look easy against the greatest heavyweight in UFC history on Saturday night at Madison Square Garden, and now there appears to be more questions about Jones' future coming out of UFC 309 than heading in. Does Jones face interim champion Tom Aspinall next in a unification bout, or does he get the fight he wants with Alex Pereira?

On an all-new edition of On To the Next One, MMA Fighting's Mike Heck and Alexander K. Lee discuss what's next for Jones following his one-sided third-round TKO victory over the now-retired Miocic in the main event. Additionally, future matchups are discussed for Charles Oliveira and Michael Chandler following Oliveira's decision win in the co-main event, Bo Nickal after his victory over Paul Craig in the middleweight featured bout, along with fellow main card winners Viviane Araujo and Mauricio Ruffy, and more.

Jon Jones made it look easy in the main event of UFC 309 as he dominated Stipe Miocic for 14 minutes before delivering a devastating spin kick to the body that sent Miocic crumbling to the mat, which led to the former two-time champ announcing the end of his hall of fame career. The big question remains: Will Jones fight Tom Aspinall to unify the heavyweight championship of the UFC?

Following Saturday's fight card at Madison Square Garden, MMA Fighting's Mike Heck and Jed Meshew react to Jones' brutal stoppage of Miocic, his post-fight interview with Joe Rogan, and Miocic announcing his retirement. Additionally, they discuss Charles Oliveira's dominant win over Michael Chandler in the co-main event and the wild fifth round, Bo Nickal's win over Paul Craig that led to a chorus of boos from the MSG crowd, other notable performances from the fight card, and much more.

Jake Paul and Mike Tyson went a full eight rounds in their highly promoted main event boxing matchup at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas. While the 58-year-old Tyson left the squared circle without taking major damage, the bout certainly seemed underwhelming to the vast majority of viewers on Netflix. Where do both guys now go from here?

Following Friday's event, MMA Fighting's Mike Heck and Jed Meshew react to Paul's unanimous decision victory over Tyson, discuss why, although it wasn't a memorable contest, it was the right decision, Tyson's boxing future, and who Paul could face next. Additionally, they discuss the incredible rematch between Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano, the controversial scorecards, if a third fight could be next for both women, other highlights from the card, the many streaming issues audiences had throughout the night during the main card, Dana White's big fight announcements during the Paul vs. Tyson main event, and much more.

Ahead of Saturday's return to Madison Square Garden, MMA Fighting's Mike Heck is joined by former UFC heavyweight, and past Jones opponent, Parker Porter to discuss the return of Jones as he competes for the first time in nearly two years, facing the former two-time champ, who makes his first appearance in nearly four years, where each fighter goes with a win, and if Tom Aspinall could still be left out of the undisputed title conversation.
