[Brian in Mesa]

Jones vs Belfort on now. Jones won the first round after nearly being armbarred immediately.

 

[Brian in Mesa]

Jones dominated the second round with kicks and a late takedown. Belfort tried to get a triangle in late, but ran out of time. Jones had better be careful.

 

[Brian in Mesa]

Jones dropped Belfort with a front side kick. Belfort just gave himself up and then Jones dominated with some ground work.

 

[Brian in Mesa]

Wow !! Jones with a submission !! Belfort tapped out !!

Pretty good PPV overall -- Belfort had that armbar TIGHT and that could have easily sealed one of the biggest upsets in MMA history.

I heard Jones is worried he might have nerve damage in his arm.
