Jon Jones wants his lone loss eliminated from his record following the ABC’s decision to do away with the 12-to-6 elbow rule.
Though the undisputed UFC heavyweight world champion is often touted as beating undefeated, that’s simply not the case. During an especially dominant performance against Matt Hamill in December 2009, ‘Bones’ was controversially disqualified by referee Steve Mazzagatti for using illegal 12-to-6 elbows that left Hamill unable to continue.
Now, Jones is calling for Dana White and Co. to scrub the DQ debacle from his record after the Association of Boxing Commission voted to abolish the ancient elbowing rule on Tuesday.
