THQ and Yukes have been busy simulating this weekend's upcoming UFC 140 match-up between Jon Jones and Lyoto Machida using UFC Undisputed 3, in an effort to predict the outcome of the fight, while promoting the realism and statistical accuracy of the game.

Simulating 25 matches, it turns out that Jones landed 42% more strikes, Machida only managed to knock out Jones once in 25 tussles, Jones won once by submission and 6 out of 7 of Machida's victories were by decision. Jones also managed to execute 61% of his takedowns and won 18 of the 25 matches.

Conclusion? Jon Jones wins with a 4th round KO. Put your money on Jones then, and whinge at THQ if Machida turns out to win at UFC 140 this weekend. Check out the trailer below for some face punching violence from UFC Undisputed 3, which is out in February 2012.
