(This story first ran at IndyStar.com ) BALTIMORE – The 6-foot-4 Jon Jones isn’t the kind of man you’d expect to need any sort of special safeguarding, but that doesn’t mean his siblings aren’t there to provide it. “At the end of the day, I’m still the older brother, so I always want to protect him,” newly signed Indianapolis Colts defensive lineman Arthur Jones said. “It’s one of those things where when he’s in the cage, I feel like I’m in the cage, too.’ The 26-year-old Jon (19-1) is the UFC’s current light heavyweight champion, and he’s positioned as the top pound-for-pound fighter in the sport in the latest USA TODAY Sports MMA rankings . On Saturday, the champ meets hard-hitting Brazilian Glover Teixeira (22-2) in the headlining bout of “UFC 172: Jones vs. Teixeira,” which takes place at Maryland’s Baltimore Arena and airs on pay-per-view (9 p.m. CT)
