Jon Jones reaches agreement with Nevada Athletic Commission, suspended one year
http://www.mmafighting.com/2016/12/...es-settlement-with-nevada-athletic-commission
Jon Jones will be free to resume his mixed martial arts career next summer.
According to multiple sources, the former UFC light heavyweight champion has reached an agreement with the Nevada Athletic Commission, which will see him avoid having to face the commission at next week's hearing in Las Vegas.
Per the terms of the agreement, Jones, 29, will be suspended for one year, retroactive to July 6, 2016 because that's the date the results of his June 16 failed drug test were revealed. Jones will not be fined, per sources.
Jones and his legal team are expected to be present in some form at the Dec. 15 NAC hearing to formally receive the punishment.
