Jon Jones pulled from UFC rankings following suspension, stripping of title

Jon Jones might remain one of the best pound-for-pound fighters in the world. But there's no longer any record of it, at least not on the UFC's official rankings.

The former UFC light heavyweight champion was removed entirely from the pound-for-pound and light heavyweight rankings Wednesday morning. That action follows the UFC suspending the star fighter indefinitely and stripping him of his light heavyweight title Tuesday night in the wake of his felony arrest on a hit-and-run charge.

Also on Wednesday, Reebok, the UFC's official uniform sponsor, terminated its individual deal with Jones.

Jones, 27, was ranked the top pound-for-pound fighter in the UFC and he was atop the light heavyweight rankings as the champion.
