I don't think Jones will move up unless there is a dominant champ. There is no upside for him. He is a draw at LHW and if he fights at HW there is no one who will help pull in more viewers.
Maybe if Stipe beat DC in their first fight Jones would have someone on his level of pulling power.
If he beats Stipe he beat the guy DC beat.
