UFC light heavyweight champion Jon “Bones” Jones (13-1 MMA, 7-1 UFC) defends his newly won title for the first time later tonight when he takes on former champion Quinton “Rampage” Jackson (32-8 MMA, 7-2 UFC).
Jones became the youngest champion to win a title in the UFC when he defeated Mauricio “Shogun” Rua at UFC 128. He was 23.
Jackson brings a veteran record with four victories in his last five bouts, including wins over Matt Hamill, Lyoto Machida, Keith Jardine and Wanderlei Silva. He has one knockout in his last six bouts but plans on regaining the status of a one-punch knockout artist in his fight with Jones.
