Yep. Gus, Glover, Davis, Bader were all very nice wins. They aged well, too, as Davis and Bader are still relevant fighters in Bellator (though the competition there at LHW/HW has even less depth than the UFC). He also flatlined Manuwa who has wins over Corey Anderson and Błachowicz and beat Little Nog who was on a 2-fight win streak. Little Nog was still a decent fighter at the time and had only been KO'd once before that (Sokoudjou in Pride).I've never seen a non title rewarding run like Rumble's and we probably never will again, he would smash every LHW champion that came before Jones.
Besides the Cormier fights, he finished 5 good-to-great fighters in just over 10 minutes total. That's insane. I can't think of anyone else who's done that, at least in modern MMA against Top 10 fighters.
