The return of BOnEs.

Love him or hate him, Jon Bones Jones returned to the octagon. Bones was definitely rusty after being out of the octagon for a year with issues out side of UFC.
Bones returned bigger and more defined. Bones took on Ovince Saint Preux who is a great fighter in himself .
OSP took the fight on 3 weeks notice with Daniel Cormier pulling out of the fight with injury and being scared the way I see it.
OSP was never in this fight, even with a rusty Jon Jones. Bones knocked the rust off of his game in every round. Bones looked amazing as he really started picking OSP apart in the 2nd and 3rd rounds. The fight went 5 rounds in which he absolutely dominated rounds 4 and 5.
Bones received the belt for light heavy interim champion and fights DC as soon DC is cleared to fight.
Bones is a amazing fighter one of the best I have ever seen.

Other notables of the night . The co main featured another title fight when Demetrious Johnson def a gold medalist Henry Cejudo.
Edson Barboza absolutely picked apart Anthony Pettis . Pettis to me has not looked good since he has come back from injury. Doesn't seen to have the confidence or speed he had before.
