From Sherdog:

 

"Vera Vs Jones

Round 1

Jones immediately trips Vera to the floor. Jones punches the body with his left hand from his opponent’s guard. Vera kicks Jones off and stands to his feet. Jones backs Vera up to the cage and gets a single after failing on a quick-trip attempt. Vera lands an elbow from his back in guard. Jones elbows the head while Vera tries to control both wrists. Vera throws an upkick with his left foot as Jones had a knee on the floor. Referee Herb Dean takes a point and asks Jones if he wants his position back on the floor. “Yes sir,” says Jones. The fight is restarted back in Vera’s closed guard. Jones is warned for thumbing Vera in the throat. Jones lands a hard elbow right on the right eye of his foe. Vera is hurt and he rolls away and turtles to avoid contact. Jones finishes with punches as Dean calls a halt to the bout at the 3:19 mark. "

 

Also from Sherdog:

 

"Junior dos Santos vs. Gabriel Gonzaga

Round 1

Gonzaga lands a low kick. It’s the only strike thrown in the first 58 seconds. Dos Santos lands a straight left to the body. Gonzaga trips dos Santos to the floor, but he can’t hold him down. Dos Santos goes back to the body with two straight lefts. Dos Santos goes to the midsection again and scores. The fighters trade head kicks that just miss. Gonzaga eats a right hand as he attempts a low kick to the left leg. Gonzaga steps forward to kick the body with his left leg and dos Santos perfectly counters with a left hook. Gonzaga falls and dos Santos pounces with punches from both hands until the lights go out. Referee Josh Rosenthal saves Gonzaga at 3:53 of the opening period."

man how good is bones jones eh?? he put vera on his ass like he was nothing! he was able to do to vera (twice in a few minutes) what couture couldn't in 3 rounds. altho it's worth noting that couture doesn't utilize judo throws. btw dana white said it would be another year before bones jones got a title shot, so there are still a lot of LHW for him to face. couture and silva would be my top picks for now since it's unlikely he'd fight sugar rashad.

 

JDS over nepau seemed pretty predictable though. his takedown defense is still suspect though imo and against someone like cain he could really be exposed in the wrestling dept. but we'll see.
