If UFC light heavyweight champ Jon Jones can beat Rampage Jackson and Rashad Evans, he needs to face Anderson Silva.
Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) light heavyweight champion Jon Jones will make his first-ever title defense against Quinton "Rampage" Jackson at UFC 135. That fight will take place on September 24 at Denver, Colorado's Pepsi Center.
Jones vs. Rampage is a very worthy UFC title fight. Jackson is a former UFC champ himself, with some of MMA's most effective boxing. He's definitely not a fighter the 24 year-old Jones can afford to look past. If Jones is having trouble handling the sudden money and fame that comes with a UFC title and lets the outside the cage distractions get the better of him, Rampage will quickly bring him down to Earth.
But if Jones continues to live up to his incredible potential we'll be talking about who's next for Jones sometime around 11:30 ET on September 24th and hoping Rampage didn't suffer any permanent harm in the cage.
The 6'4" Jones combines a pterodactyl wing-span of 84" with a viciously opportunistic striking style that's heavy on hurtful knees and elbows and the ability to throw 200lb men around the Octagon like he's a human catapult. He's complimented his physical gifts with a positive thirst for knowledge about all aspects of fighting. Training under Greg Jackson, the Yoda of MMA, has only sharpened Jones' dangerous game.
