UFC 285: Jones Cruises Through Gane, Grasso Upsets Shevchenko
By FCF Staff
Jon Jones was fighting for the first time in three years at UFC 285 on Saturday, but the former light-heavyweight champ had few difficulties getting through Ciryl Gane.
The controversial star laid claim to the vacant heavyweight belt, by taking Gane down and catching the former interim champ with a first-round, guillotine choke.
In the co-headliner, Alexa Grasso recorded a massive upset, by submitting now-former flyweight champ, Valentina Shevchenko. Grasso secured a fight-ending, rear-naked choke during a fourth-round scramble.
Here are the complete results for the card, which took place at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.
