Throwback | UFC 140: Jon Jones vs Lyota Machida
At 4:26 in the second round, Jon Jones submitted Lyoto Machida (standing guillotine) to win. Bones seldom loses a round in his fights, and he lost the first round against Machida. But he responded effectively when he could clinch with Lyoto Machida in the second round.
Jones threw an elbow to the challenger after putting down Machida. A little while after the fight was stopped so the doctor could examine Machida’s cut, Jones and Machida locked up a standing guillotine choke. In that fight, he effectively put Machida to sleep. The contest was also named “Fight of the Night.”
