In an appearance at UFC Tonight, Dana White spoke to former fighters Kenny Florian and Brian Stann about various topics. He discussed whether or not the UFC will punish Jon Jones for his cocaine test, and potential returns of two of their biggest draws.

When Stann asked about Jones violating the UFC code of conduct and whether he will be punished internally, White gave a non-answer:

Right now, all we’re concerned about is getting Jon (Jones) better. We’re not worried about the title or any of that stuff right now. It’s about him getting taken care of, getting him healed and better. We’re also waiting for the post-fight drug test to come back. We’ll make a decision when all that goes down.

As for getting two of their biggest draws ever, White seemed optimistic:

I really do think that Georges St-Pierre will be back in ’15. Brock Lesnar has a contract with the WWE, but he knows he can call me whenever that contract is up.

Watch the video above where White also says that the title unification bout between Cain Velasquez and Fabricio Werdum will happen in Mexico this year, and that teammates T.J. Dillashaw and Urijah Faber are open to fighting each other.
