04:22 PM ET 10.16 | The UFC stunned the mixed martial arts world today with the news that UFC light heavyweight champion Jon Jones and former UFC middleweight contender Chael Sonnen would coach opposite one another on the next season of FX's 'The Ultimate Fighter'. In addition, the two will meet in a bout for Jones' light heavyweight title in April. The two nearly collided when Sonnen was offered to Jones as a late replacement for UFC 151 after Jones' original opponent in Dan Henderson could not fight because of injury. Sonnen last fought in July at middleweight, losing to UFC middleweight champion Anderson Silva.
