Review: 2011-12-10, the first round and the first two minutes of the second round between Jon Jones and Lyoto Machida were not spectacular but then the pace picks up and the fight ended with an amazing submission (4 stars for the standing guillotine choke and its effectiveness, one of the best of the year); fighters were awarded “Fight of the Night” honors. Jon Jones (14-1-0) entered as the No.1 light heavyweight in the world while Lyoto Machida (17-2-0) entered as the No.6. Jones vs Machida is the main event of the UFC 140 and is valid for the UFC Light Heavyweight Championship. Watch the video!
