Jones beat Alexander Gustafsson at UFC 232 last December – his first fight after serving a suspension for failing a drugs test in July 2017.

The 31-year-old is making up for lost time with a swift return to the Octagon against Smith to defend his UFC light heavyweight championship title.

Jones is the heavy favourite to triumph over the experienced Smith in the UFC's first return to the arena which sparked ugly scenes at the end of Conor McGregor's showdown with Khabib Nurmagomedov.
