#4. Jon Jones and UFC heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou
Trending
Since committing to a heavyweight move, Jon Jones has been linked to a bout with UFC heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou. The reigning champion has not shied away from the possibility of welcoming the former light heavyweight champion to heavyweight. It looked like the bout was close to being finalized, but it never came to fruition.
If the promotion changes its mind about Jones vs. Stipe Miocic bout, Team 'Bones' vs. Team Ngannou would be logical.

The coaching pairing could allow the promotion to hype their bout as the biggest heavyweight title fight of all-time. Jones has coached TUF in the past as he coached opposite Chael Sonnen. And so, he wouldn't be out of his comfort zone in a coaching role.
Coaching TUF would also give the heavyweight champion more time to recuperate, while also building up his next fight. He is still out of action after undergoing surgery following his win against Ciryl Gane. With that in mind, 'The Predator' and 'Bones' coaching TUF could make for a great season of the show.
#3. Jorge Masvidal and former interim UFC welterweight champion Colby Covington
Saying that Jorge Masvidal and former interim UFC welterweight champion Colby Covington despise one another would be an understatement. The former best friends have been involved in a bitter rivalry that has even carried over to the streets.
The promotion could see value in using TUF as a way to book Covington vs. Masvidal 2.
They fought this past March, which saw 'Chaos' earn a unanimous decision win over the 'BMF' title holder. It was a decisive win as he used his wrestling to dictate the fight and earn points on the scorecards.
Weeks later, 'Gamebred' was arrested and charged for attacking Covington outside a steakhouse in Miami, Florida. The animosity is obviously still there, so a TUF season and rematch could be lucrative for all involved.
Based on their history with one another, it would be interesting to see what transpires. Masvidal would have the support of the American Top Team, while Covington would likely be motivated to outperform his former team.
