In Round 1, Jones controlled the center of the octagon and kept his range with an array of kicks as he pressured Machida in the early stages. Machida connected with a few flurries on the counter, but Jones managed to backpedal out of harm’s way to avoid Machida’s most damaging strikes.
Midway through Round 2, Jones landed a big takedown and connected with some brutal elbows that left Machida cut. Machida eventually made his way back to his feet, but Jones continued to walk him down.
Machida then threw a big overhand left, but Jones dropped him on the counter. Then the defending champion swiftly latched onto “The Dragon’s” neck and sunk in a standing guillotine choke.
