Jon Jones did not give details on Saturday for his return to the cage three years after his last fight, martyring Ciryl Gane in a minute to pocket the world heavyweight title.
There was no match Saturday in Las Vegas between Jon Jones and Ciryl Gane. The icon, the youngest UFC champion in history, made a resounding comeback to dispatch the fight in just two minutes. The American took the Frenchman to the ground, Jones blocking him against the limits of the ring before forcing him into submission on a strangulation technique, known as the “guillotine”. “I had the assurance that by taking him to the ground, the fight would be easy for me. I knew what I had to do”, commented the “GOAT” after the fight, he who still only counts only one defeat on the clock for 27 UFC victories.
Jon Jones is the youngest, most crowned champion in history. He was never submitted, he was never knocked out and the American reigned supreme in the light heavyweight division. He suffered only one defeat and this one by disqualification due to an unauthorized blow. Gane has not made the weight and holding a new fight for the conquest of a world crown now seems a long way off. The Nantes player will probably have to win a new interim title for that…
