Five Times UFC Fights Ended In DQ

#2 Matt Hamill vs Jon Jones - The Ultimate Fighter Finale (December 5, 2009)

Jon Jones only professional defeat came via DQ

Jon Jones has had a controversial career for all sorts of different reasons. However, one controversy came during his one and only defeat as a professional fighter.

That came a decade ago, during the finale of the tenth season of UFC's Ultimate Fighter series in which he took on Matt Hamill.

Jones by his own admission learnt a lot of his creative offence from YouTube videos and his elbows in this fight appeared to be directly lifted from some dodgy online content.

However, it is perplexing that Jones had to use them in the first place. With Hamill clearly beaten and defenceless on the mat, Jones pounded on him relentlessly with punches. Jones paused momentarily to see if the referee was going to stop the fight.

When referee, Steve Mazzagatti was unmoved, Jones decided to use elbows instead to force the stoppage and in doing so, used illegal ones, which ironically caused him to be disqualified.

The letter of the law was followed but in truth, this was a mess of a finish.
