Jon Jones spent most of the week dealing with another legal issue after being pulled over and cited for drag racing, which resulted in an arrest warrant. Jones later turned himself in and spent some time in lock-up before his bail hearing.
Jones was admonished by the judge, and later the UFC, for his actions, but no penalty was passed down that would affect his upcoming fight with Daniel Cormier at UFC 197.
As soon as Jones was released, it looks like he headed to the gym for a workout and worked out some frustration on the pods with coach Gibson:
About Jon Jones
Quick Rise Jones entered the UFC in August 2008 on a few weeks’ notice, won, and was rewarded with bouts against future Hall of Famer Stephan Bonnar and a UFC 100 spot against Jake O’Brien. Near effortless wins over veterans Brandon Vera and Vladimir Matyushenko followed before he dominated previously-unbeaten Ryan Bader at UFC 126. Jones’ only loss came at when a poor referee call resulted in a disqualification loss to Matt Hamill, in a fight he was by all accounts winning soundly.
Title Shot After his UFC 126 win, while still inside the Octagon, Jones was offered the chance to step in for injured teammate Rashad Evans to face light heavyweight champ Shogun Rua on six weeks’ notice. Jones accepted and went on to dominate Rua as well as his subsequent opponents: Rampage Jackson, Lyoto Machida, Rashad Evans and Vitor Belfort.
King Among Kings Just 23 years old when he defeated Shogun, Jones became the UFC’s youngest-ever world champion. Jones has successfully defended his light heavyweight title in a division-record eight consecutive fights. He’s also finished nine opponents by either knockout or submission, passing Chuck Liddell for most finishes in light heavyweight history.
