On January 3, 2015 the UFC Light Heavyweight champion of the world defended his title. The champion, Jon "Bones" Jones took on the challenger Daniel Cormier. Jon Jones was the youngest fighter to become champion at the age of 23. Jones has a 21-1 record with his only lost coming from a disqualification. The challenger, Daniel Cormier was undefeated at 15-0. This fight was supposed to happen in August but Jon Jones had a leg injury so they postponed it until January. This fight was going to be very interesting because Jones and Cormier hate each other. Throughout the press conferences and weigh in these two have been talking trash to each other and even throwing punches. The Light Heavyweight championship fight between these two went all five rounds. The judges had to decide who won and all three judges had Jon Jones winning. Jones won the fight and kept his belt.
