Finally, the match we have all been waiting for.  Former teammates Rashad Evans and Jon Jones will meet at UFC 145 in Atlanta, GA  with the 205lbs UFC Championship Belt on the line.  The statement below was released earlier on the official UFC website www.ufc.com.

The UFC’s spring fight card in Atlanta has its main event, as UFC president Dana White confirmed today that light heavyweight champion Jon Jones will defend his title against former-teammate-turned-rivalRashad Evans, a former beltholder in that division. The heated matchup was expected after Evans handily decisioned then-undefeated Phil Davis at UFC on FOX and was made official today.
