Posted by Joshua Wood (Editor in Chief)Mar 21
Unless you’ve been under a rock since Saturdays UFC 128 you’ve heard the name of the newly crowned UFC light heavyweight champion, Jon Jones. The 23-year-old fighter has arguably the most hype behind a fighter in UFC history and can back it up too. When Jones fights he doesn’t just win, since joining in the UFC 2008, Jones has left a path of beaten and battered fighters on his way to the top.
Fighters like Brandon Vera (fractured face) and Matt Hamill (nose laceration) have felt the power Jones and following the fight their faces showed the beating they were subjected too.
