Interim UFC light heavyweight champion Jon Jones has been banned for a year after an anti-doping hearing.

Watch NOW TV Watch Sky Sports for just ￡6.99. No contract. On the evidence before the panel, the applicant is not a drug cheat, the panels resolution read.He did not know that the tablet he took contained prohibited substances or that those substances had the capacity to enhance sporting performance.However by his imprudent use of (the pill) he has not only lost a year of his career but an estimated $9m (£7.25m).This outcome which he admits to be a wake-up call for him should serve as a warning to all others who participate in the same sport.A statement from the UFC read: UFC is aware of the one-year sanction levied against Jon Jones as a result of his UFC Anti-Doping Policy violation, decided by a three-person arbitration panel held on October 31.While the decision indicates no evidence of Jones intentional use of banned substances, it does highlight the care and diligence that is required by athletes competing in the UFC to ensure that no prohibited substances enter their system.

How great will be revealed in the next couple of days at the board of governors meeting in Pebble Beach, Calif.Stipe Miocic became UFC heavyweight champion after knocking out Fabricio Werdum in Brazil, but what did we learn? UFC 198 results Details of wins for Miocic, Souza, Cyborg Championship merry-go-round continues Stipe Miocic is the new world champion Heavyweight title fights have become - largely due to former champion Cain Velasquezs injuries - a rare occurrence, yet even rarer is a title-holder with an iron grip on his belt.Werdum seemed on the verge of being anointed one of the greatest heavyweight fighters, but such recognition might have to be shelved after his first title defence ended in disaster inside three minutes. Prior to Werdums forgettable reign, Velasquez had an injury-ridden spell as champion that saw him defend only twice, both times against opponents who he had already defeated.There will be pressure on Miocic to return to the cage quickly, having escaped his title win apparently unscathed. Alistair Overeem awaits as the obvious challenger who seems more than capable of continuing the merry-go-round.Dont take it on the chin Is this safety-first approach advisable for new champion Miocic (left)? When 260lbs men strap on 4oz gloves, it is advisable to keep your hands up because, worryingly, there does not seem to be a heavyweight contender capable of withstanding his rivals punches.Miocic is relatively fresh at 33 yet four years ago he was knocked out by Stefan Struve.Werdum had been stopped once before Miocic flattened him, while the next challenger Overeem has suffered three knockouts in the last three years alone. Floyd confident of McGregor fight Floyd Mayweather Jr has added to speculation of a potential fight with Conor McGregor Everyones chin, it appears, can be exposed in this division, which suggests the secret to a successful reign might be a reluctance to rely upon trading strikes.Miocic demonstrated this ability by holding Mark Hunt to the ground for much of their 23-minute fight a year ago - so is that how he should continue?What to do with Cyborg? Cris CCyborg Justino continued her winning streak Cristiane Cyborg Justino made a frightening impact on her long-awaited UFC debut, finally stepping into the big leagues after years of threatening to launch an assault on the evolving womens scene.ddddddddddddA swift stoppage of Leslie Smith extended her run to 11 consecutive knockouts, suggesting she is a match for anyone wearing world championship gold, but questions remain about how to fit her into the puzzle.Having never made the weight limit of 135lbs for the biggest womens division, Cyborg was afforded a catchweight fight of 140lbs against Smith. She duly won against an oversized opponent who isnt even ranked in the top 15 of the 135lbs division.Having then failed to mention established contenders Ronda Rousey or Holly Holm in her post-fight speech, we are no clearer to discovering whether Cyborg merits her fearsome nickname.Has Souza pipped Bisping? Ronaldo Jacare Souza might have stolen Michael Bispings thunder Englands Michael Bisping must have been expecting the next crack at the middleweight championship having defeated the former champion, Anderson Silva, in February. But the performance of Ronaldo Jacare Souza has cast that into doubt.Souza dominated and eventually finished another former title-holder, Vitor Belfort, inside the first round while Bisping was taken the distance by Silva. In the UFCs official rankings at 185lbs, Bisping is No 4 behind both Souza and Belfort.To complicate matters, current champion Luke Rockhold already holds win over his two most obvious challengers. All eyes will turn to Rockholds next title defence against Chris Weidman next month, before Bisping learns his fate.Legends battle on Antonio Rogerio Nogueira won for the first time in three years Werdum and Belfort may have been comprehensively beaten by younger, fresher contenders, but, aged 38 and 39 respectively, they remain viable fighters. And they are not alone, with a host of Brazilian veterans refusing to quietly step out of the spotlight.Mauricio Shogun Rua, a 34-fight veteran and ex-champion, beat 26-year-old up-and-comer Corey Anderson. Demian Maia, at 38, has scarcely looked better than his submission win over Matt Brown. And, a month shy of his 40th birthday, Antonio Rogerio Nogueira knocked out Pat Cummins and continues to be listed in the top 10 of his division.Dont count out the old-timers just yet.
