    1. Silva still No. 1 P4P, but Jones closes gap

      At some point during Jon Jones’ fifth UFC title defense (which nearly cost him a big toe) Saturday, a reader posted a great question to the ESPN.com live chat. “Is it weird,” he wrote, “that I rank Anderson Silva pound-for-pound above Jon Jones, but think he would lose if they fought?

    2. Georges St-Pierre: Past, present and future

      At the age of 31, UFC welterweight champion Georges St-Pierre has accomplished so much that rumors of a two-fight retirement plan shouldn't come as a shock. St-Pierre (24-2) holds the record for total UFC wins (along with Matt Hughes) at 18 and is second in title defenses with eight.

    3. Time to say goodbye to the ‘bad guy’?

      Assuming the story is true, the most heinous villain in MMA history may have been born via innocuous text message during the summer of 2009.

    4. No time to waste Jones in frivolous fights

      The reality show is wrapped. The spring break title defense against Chael Sonnen is in the books. It's time, is it not, for Jon Jones to get back to business? The 25-year-old UFC light heavyweight champion spun his wheels over the last seven months, and all he had to show for it was a busted up arm and horribly mangled toe.

    5. Jon Jones’ future uncertain after UFC 159

      NEWARK, N.J. -- In a night of strange happenings, perhaps the strangest was saved for last. As most thought he would, Jon Jones (18-1) defended his light heavyweight title against Chael Sonnen at UFC 159 at Newark's Prudential Center, yet he did it in a prideful way -- by outwrestling the wrestler.

    6. Sonnen's attempt at flattery falls short

      That Chael Sonnen guy: He isn’t one of the best light heavyweights in UFC. But Sonnen has the gift of gab. He’s second to none in that category. His uncanny ability to come up with catchy phrases, primarily derogatory comments targeted at champions, captures the attention of the most casual fight fan.
