Jon Jones reclaimed the UFC light heavyweight title by knocking out Daniel Cormier, stopping his rival with a head kick and punches at the 3:01 mark of the third round.
Jones (23-1 MMA, 17-1 UFC), returning from a 15-month layoff due to an anti-doping violation, made Cormier (19-2 MMA, 8-2 UFC) wade through dozens of kicks and punches before catching him off guard with the fight-changing shot.
The light heavyweight title bout was the main event of today’s UFC 214 event at Honda Center in Anaheim, Calif. It aired on pay-per-view following prelims on FXX and UFC Fight Pass.
