Jon Jones DQed. Hamill the victor

On Saturday night, undefeated 22 year old Jon "Bones" Jones fought Cincinnati's own 33 year old, Matt "The Hammer" Hamill. In the very first round, Jones took Hamill down and just man-handled him. But after blocking many of the fists and elbows, and eating an equal amount, referee Steve Mazzagati was forced to stop the fight due to "Bones" throwing multiple illegal elbows to the face of Matt Hamill. Going to the commercial break, it was unsure what the outcome would be, since before cutting to break, the announcers announced the fight over and Hamill was laying on the mat with his eyes filled with blood. However, the judged made the executive decision to disqualify Jon Jones and give the win to "The Hammer". After the announcement, Joe Rogan talked to Hamill and if was obvious that the elbows got the best of his face, especially his nose. His shoulder is also separated, and he was obviously in a great amount of pain.
