Jon Jones captured the promotions vacant light heavyweight title at UFC 232, defeating Alexander Gustafsson via third-round knockout in Los Angeles.<\/p>\n

The victory improved Jon Jones overall record to a sensational 23-1, with his lone career setback coming via disqualification – this after he landed illegal elbows on Matt Hamill at the TUF 10 Finale event in 2009.<\/p>\n

After his first fight with “The Mauler<\/a>” at UFC 165 produced a “Fight of the year” war, many fans and analysts believed that their rematch would be highly competitive.<\/p>\n

However, that did not turn out to be the case at UFC 232. Jon Jones seemingly had his way<\/a> with the powerful Swede before ending the fight in the third-round with some brutal ground and pound strikes<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Most recently it was announced that Jon Jones UFC 232 drug tests with the California State Athletic Commission had come back clean<\/a>.<\/p>\n

If that wasn’t reason enough to celebrate, news broke earlier today that the December 29 pay-per-view event has done an estimated 700,000 buys<\/a>.<\/p>\n

If those estimations prove true, then UFC 232 will be the second highest pay-per-view event of the 2018 year, trailing only UFC 229<\/a> which was headlined by Conor McGregor vs. Khabib Nurmagomedov<\/a>. <\/p>\n

Following the news of UFC 232’s reported success, Jon Jones took to his official Instagram<\/a> with the following reaction.<\/p>\n

“Love me, hate me. As long as the people care I’m good.”<\/em> – Jon Jones<\/p>\n

Jones would later delete the social media post, but not before it was seen by many members of the MMA Community.<\/p>\n

“Bones” is already slated to return to the octagon at March’s UFC 235 event in Las Vegas where he will take on surging division contender Anthony Smith.<\/p>\n
