It was a well-hyped fight, but one that played out perhaps even more one-sided than imagined. The always vocal Chael Sonnen had talked his way into a title shot at 205 lbs, yet champion Jon "Bones" Jones wasn't impressed by the verbal acrobatics, and certainly wasn't impressed by Sonnen's skills. Landing shots in the clinch and easily winning the wrestling battle, Jones broke a toe, but absolutely dispatched his opponent with little danger and maximum damage.

Our main event features none other than Sweden's fighting pride, Alexander Gustafsson, as he'll look to take one step closer to a title shot.
