[UPDATE] by Anton Tabuena: Jon Jones and Vladimir Matyushenko talk about their headlining bout:

“I’m really excited about fighting such a veteran in Vladimir Matyushenko,” Jones said. “I think it will be another great opportunity to step up my game. I am going to try to make it an exciting fight and I’m not taking him lightly. I know how important this fight is and I feel ready.”

“I want to thank the UFC for putting together a fight that the fans will enjoy and get excited about,” Matyushenko said. “The winner of this fight will move on to some great opportunities related to the light heavyweight title run in the UFC. I am always in great shape, and I have not stopped training since my last fight. The next two months everything will be dedicated specifically to my preparation for Jon Jones. I want to thank all of the fans for their support. You are the best that any professional athlete could ask for.”
