UFC 135 – Jon Jones vs. Quinton “Rampage” Jackson verbally agreed for September 24th in Denver, Colorado

It has tonight been announced that the light heavyweight title will be on the line at UFC 135 on September 24th in Denver, Colorado, as current champion, Jon Jones takes on former champion, Quinton “Rampage” Jackson in the nights main event.

Jon Jones is apparently close to making his return to action to defend his light heavyweight title for the first time, as he may be penciled in to battle Quinton Jackson at the upcoming UFC 135 event, which is currently rumored for Sept. 24 at the Pepsi Center in Denver, Colorado.
A source close to one of the fight camps alerted MMAmania.com to the news earlier today, but stressed that obstacles exist. Jones, who is still resting a hand injury, must first be cleared by his physician before getting the green light to compete.
The same goes for "Rampage," who was recently medically suspended until June 28 but could stretch as far as Nov. 25 unless he gets clearance from an orthopedic doctor.
