Mason Jones pulls off potential Comeback of the Year

After being dropped and badly hurt in Round 1, Jones turned things around to take out Oki by ground and pound at the 3:18 mark of Round 2 in their lightweight bout Saturday at Accor Arena in Paris. Jones’ cardio held up as he weathered the early storm and slammed Oki down, before raining down punches for the finish.
