VIDEO | Jon Jones Breaks Silence on Accident, Suspension, Return to UFC, and More

Over the past seven months, Jon Jones was involved in a hit and run car accident, suspended by the UFC, stripped of his UFC light heavyweight title, plead guilty to a felony charge of leaving the scene of an accident, given 18 months of supervised probation and finally, in late October, reinstated by the UFC.

Throughout this tumultuous time, Jones hasn’t talked to the media. He finally broke his silence last week during an exclusive interview with MMAFighting.com. In the interview, Jones talks about everything that he has endured recently, how he plans on rebounding and much more.

Co-Host of the weekly MMANUTS MMA Podcast. Matt introduced the UFC and mixed martial arts to me a few years back and I’ve been addicted ever since. In 2008 we started training in Krav Maga until we found Comprido BJJ in 2009 which we call home now. Currently training in Thai Boxing, Wrestling, and Brazillian Jiu Jitsu, the latter of which is my favorite martial art. Love every aspect of MMA and especially find the ground game the most interesting.
