By bjpenndotcom - January 13, 2016

Back in 2013 Jon Jones and Alexander Gustafsson put on one of the greatest fights in UFC history at UFC 165 when the pair fought to a controversial decision that saw Jones retain the UFC light heavyweight championship.

Prior to that however, the pair were featured as guests of honor at Legend Fight Show, where Alexander Emelianenko fought Bob Sapp.

Gustafsson posted a photo to Instagram of himself in the ring with Legend Fight Show promoter Ruslan Suleymanov, Bob Sapp, Fedor Emelianenko, Alexander Emelianenko, and Jon Jones.

From almost 3 years ago, first time me and Jones met as guests at the @legendashow in Moscow. Amazing to meet the legend @fedoremelianenkoofficial as well. He was cornering his brother Aleksander who was fighting Bob Sapp. Standing next to me, my friend and promoter @ruslanlegend
