UFC 165 ‘Jones vs Gustafsson’ results: Jones and Barao retain their titles

UFC 165 ‘Jones vs Gustafsson’ went down tonight (Sept. 21, 2013) from inside the Air Canada Centre in Toronto, Ontario.

The main-event featured a light heavyweight matchup between current champion Jon Jones and the Swedish number-one contender Alexander Gustafsson.  This was by far fight of the year as both went guns blazing for five-rounds.  Gustafsson looked to have had the contest won but the judges saw it in favor of Jones.  The crowd was not pleased but Jones does become the longest reigning UFC light heavyweight champ.

In the co-main event, Renan Barao survived the first round and came back with a second round spinning back kick KO over Eddie Wineland to retain his bantamweight title.
