Jones vs Santos Preview

Jones is once again atop the UFC light heavyweight division.

The 31-year-old New Yorker originally took the title from Maurício Rua at UFC 128 in March 2011. He defended the belt a division-record eight times before getting stripped for violating the promotion’s code of conduct policy in relation to a hit-and-run.

In each of his next two bouts, he claimed the title only to be stripped for testing positive for banned substances.

He then punched out Alexander Gustafsson at UFC 232 in December to recapture the light heavyweight belt before defending against Anthony Smith via unanimous decision at UFC 235 in March.

Jones has never been knocked out — the only loss of his career was a disqualification for illegal downward elbows against Matt Hamill in the finale of the 10th season of “The Ultimate Fighter.” Santos (21-6, 13-5) has 15 knockouts in his career.

“I’m not too concerned with his power,” Jones said this week, according to MMA Junkie. “I think you could knock me out if I put my hands behind my back and let you punch me in the face! I think every man and woman in this audience is strong enough to knock me out if I let them punch me squarely in the chin.”

He added: “Every UFC fighter I’ve ever fought has had the power to knock me out. It’s about being skilled enough to land that punch. Thus far, no one’s been skilled enough to land that punch, and I don’t think anything is going to change on Saturday night.”

The 35-year-old Santos has won four in a row and eight of his last nine, taking three performance of the night bonuses and a pair of fight of the night bonuses in the process.

This is the Brazilian’s first title shot.

“He is full of surprises, just like me,” Santos said, according to Bloody Elbow. “So I don’t think there’s one specific thing I need to worry about. I need to be concerned in a more general manner, he is very well-rounded, a one-of-a-kind kind of guy. I’m going to feel it out, find the right moment to attack, avoid his attacks and find the right time to pounce. Like a sniper. I’m an explosive guy, I don’t like to waste any shots.”

He added: “I know what my potential is, I know what I can do. Regardless of the doubts. If I didn’t know me, I would bet on him, too, he’s the favorite, for sure. He’s a great fighter because of his history.”
