Granted, Jones' fall was a self-inflicted one outside the cage and his chance at redemption is coming much sooner, but at least at this moment we have perhaps the three biggest stars in the sport all facing a comeback from adversity.
At one time or another, all three seemed invincible, and all three had both a legion of supporters and a legion of haters. Which one makes the best comeback, and which one makes it last? It's easy to say Jones, because out of the three he's the one that didn't lose in the cage, but personal demons are hard to defeat and could rear their ugly head at any time. McGregor and Rousey both had holes poked in their games and have work to do to close them up. But McGregor is still a champ in a lower division, and Rousey's foil Holly Holm just had some flaws exposed as well, so there are opportunities for each.
So, which of the big three rises back up? I say Jones, what say you?
