UFC 197: Jon Jones vs. Ovince St. Preux (Video Highlights)

Although a win is a win, let’s just say Jones looked every bit of a fighter who hadn’t stepped in the cage in over a year.

Jones said he would tinker with a southpaw stance against St. Preux, which he did, but nothing significant came from it. Jones primarily used his long legs to punish the former football player.

It wasn’t until the fourth round that Jones landed some takedowns. It appeared as though Jones was finally ready to finish off the longshot underdog, but St. Preux was saved by the bell when the fourth round horn blared.
