UFC 140: Jones vs. Machida was a mixed martial arts event held by the Ultimate Fighting Championship on December 10, 2011, at the Air Canada Centre in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.

At UFC 140, Jon Jones overcame what was at the time the most difficult opponent of his career to choke out Lyoto Machida late in the second round and retain his light heavyweight title.

Jones was tested like he has never been tested before and passed with flying colors. In the first round, Machida found openings in Jones' stand-up and charged through them forcefully. The Dragon appeared to win the round.

He had never been hit hard in the cage, and with apologies to Matt Hamill had never cleanly lost a round. All the uncertainty about how he would fare in the proverbial deep water can be considered resolved.

Jones regrouped in the second round, scoring a takedown and opening Machida's forehead with an elbow. Soon after, Jones locked in a standing guillotine choke. When he released the choke, Machida fell to the mat in a heap, and another one bit the dust.
