CSAC Head Intends to Cancel Jones' Only Defeat

The head of the California State Athletic Commission (CSAC) Andy Foster said that he intends to cancel the defeat of Jon Jones from Matt Hamill in 2009.

As a reminder, Jones lost to Hamill when he landed a banned elbow strike while the opponent was on the ground.

Foster said in an interview with Ariel Helwani:

The rule is what it was then, it's different now. It would be hard to go back. I'd be actually supportive of getting rid of that but it's not my decision.

Jones last fought in March 2023 at UFC 285, defeating Ciryl Gane by first-round choke. He has 27 wins and one loss on his record.
