Jon Jones defends heavyweight title with third round KO 

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (KRQE) – Jon Jones once again entered the octagon with a title on the line. He once again took home a belt.

In the heavyweight title bout against Stipe Miocic on Saturday night, Jones won via knockout 4:29 into round three. Jones was able to connect on a spinning back kick that he said he trained three hours per week for several months.

“My mind was, ‘Jon why not develop a technique that could stop any man?’, Jones said. “The spinning kick is a move that can drop an elephant if you do it right. It’s a devastating move and, in my opinion, the most devastating move in martial arts.”

Now 28-1 in his career, Jones does not know if he will continue fighting. He said he is open to it.
