Media Part 1 of a Jon Jones Documentary by Beige Frequency

One of the things that the people who constantly point out his faults will never understand is that the reason some people refuse to dislike Jon Jones at this stage isn't because he's seen as some kind if hero to degenerates, or a master criminal bad boy type... Its because he's so incredibly human and igs so easy to imagine the money, the fame, the adulation, and the partying going to your head and taking you down roads you once were against...

Its a funny thing, having and accepting mental issues, and problems with addiction... One moment you're the king of the world, and then a couple of bad days happen and your life is in the shitter with everyone around you either disappointed in your or gloating at your failures... And then you end up absorbing that energy ad letting it manifest into a caricatured version of who you once were...

It doesn't matter your professional field, your personality type (to a point), your age, race, sexuality, or whatever...This kind of meltdown can happen to anyone at any time that isn't on top of themselves, and with good people they respect around them...There are bad apples and seeds everywhere, but I've been through so much in my own life that I can't judge another man on his demons, albeit there are unsavory aspects there, this i can't deny... I just hate to see potential squandered for nothing, and I still have some (probably fantastic) hopes about him making a comeback and doing well, but yeah... I dunno... I guess my point is glass houses.

This guy with the vouceover making the video would give his right arm to taste some of the pleasures Jones has had put his way, and isn't in a position to comment on how he'd behave in the same situation.

Haters gonna hate.

A lot of words to justify wife beating

I don't even remember writing that, and it only happened a couple of hours ago.

You good, my man? I don't think we've ever interacted on here but you sound... troubled.

Wife beating is indefensible... And yet somehow in his situation its become understandable, in so much that I can see how he ended up there

Its that feeling of everyone constantly being on at you, reminding you that you're supposed to be being a better person, doing this, not doing that... The pressure of trying to go clean, fucking up, trying to keep that under wraps, people close to you tugging on the heart strings and tweaking your buttons when you're high...

Bro, I'm neither saying it's OK, or that I've crossed that line, but God knows I've been in situations where I've thought about it, and I've acted like an enormous prick at some of my lowest moments... Luckily I've been reasonably able to turn my issues to my advantage, and I hope the same for him too

very good points except for the king of the world part

Jones is far less recognizable than many pro athletes from the more popular sports in the u.s. I'm sure he's gone many places where no one knew where he was and I'm just talking about in the u.s. If Jones goes to another country, the chance anyone recognizes him drops even further.

He's accomplished great things in his sport and all mma fans here know him but he's not that famous or rich compared to many other pro athletes that aren't as good or special in their sports as he is/was.
 
Jones isn't his "own worst enemy".

The guy simply would not have achieved what he did in MMA without constant, ridiculous levels of cheating.

The rest is mental gymnastics to try to worm around that fact.

Its because he's so incredibly human

Only if you are a similar piece of shit lol. Most people never do the shit he did, and that includes those who achieved large financial success.

There isn't any nuance here. Guy is a fraud, a liar, and an overall slimy piece of shit. If you sympathize with him, it is likely you have some similar qualities.

You want this to be a fact so you have convinced yourself it is a fact. It’s not.
