Jon Jones v Lyoto Machida UFC Fight

Dec. 15, 2011 - PRLog -- With Boxing matches ending in controversial decisions, or fighters such as Bernard Hopkins quitting in the second round of his last bout, the UFC has taken over, and is slowly becoming the fight sport that everyone looks forward to viewing the most.

Eight months ago the UFC broke box office records with UFC 129, when the event was held at Toronto’s Rogers Centre. With the event being a success in that particular city , the promotion will return, but at a different venue.

This Saturday Night from the Air Canada Centre in Toronto it’s Lyoto Machida vs Jon Jones for the Light Heavyweight Title.

Jones enters with a record of (14-1 MMA, 8-1 UFC), and this will be his second title defense of 2011. The fighter is coming off a very impressive performance, in which he dominated former champion Quinton "Rampage" Jackson at UFC 135.

Lyoto Machida is the former champion coming in at  (17-2 MMA, 9-2 UFC), and will be looking to pull off the upset victory. Keys to victory will be his ability to get inside and close the distance without getting caught.  The task won’t be easy, as Jon Jones has long legs, and holds the height and reach advantage.
