Jon Jones returned to the Octagon for the first time in 15 months tonight in UFC 197 against Ovince Saint-Preaux inside the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada. Many thought that Jones seemed a bit rusty, but he was still a force to be reckoned even though he had only lost half a step in Saturday night's main card.
But he beat Saint-Preaux for his 4th straight unanimous decision-win, and his 13th consecutive victory overall. "Bones" Jones now has the second longest winning streak in UFC history behind Anderson Silva's 16 straight wins.
Jones now holds the interim light heavyweight title belt. But when it was handed to him after the fight, he didn't claimed that he didn't even want it.
He's back. With a vengeance.
