5 Defining Moments: Jon Jones

continues to build and fortify his legacy
Info directly taken from his last published arrest.
Jon Jones (without his legacy) was arrested Friday at 5:45 am after a 911 call from his bleeding fiance in Las Vegas. He was charged with battery domestic violence, and injuring or tampering with a vehicle, a police spokesperson said. Jones already has a number of prior arrests, including driving while intoxicated (DWI) i n 2012, hit-and-run in 2015, battery in July 2019, and charges of his second DWI along with negligent use of a firearm in March 2020.

When did jbj fight before the only HW "unfixed" Gane fight during his "Legacy" ?

No drug tests are mentioned.​
 
Separate the art from the artist, Jones is the GOAT. People bringing up his out of the cage stuff has absolutely no baring on his talent. The failed drug tests are the only thing you can hold against him. I get if people don't like that he failed them and DQ him from their GOAT list but no matter what you think of him, he has had some of the best performances in the cage against some of the best fighters in the world.
 
For me in chronological order:
1.Destruction of Brandon Vera
2.Destruction of Shogun Rua
3. Dead corpse drop of Machida
4.Surviving Belfort and then finishing him
5. Head kick KO of DC.
honourable mention: Life or death with Gus.
Haven’t read Sherdog’s list yet.
 
1. DUI arrest in 2012.
2. Hit n Run w/pregnant woman 2015.
3. Probation violation arrest w/body cam 2016.
4. DWI rebooted w/gun charges 2020.
5. Felony battery and Domestic violence 2021.
 
Still to this day gives me the heeby jeebies. What a badass dude jeez. I told my buddy before the Gane fight not to underestimate Bones the GOAT Jones

Even more amazing was Mir breaking big Nog's arm the fight before it, the Brazilians didn't have a good night that night
 
1. First failed test

Extra bonus moment: When he said he was too scared to fight DC at HW.

One more for the road: When Dana told Jon to move down to MW instead of fight Francis and Jon actually agreed.
1) Failed roid tests
2) Wrapping car around tree, breaking pregnant woman's arm, hit and run with weed in the car while drunk
3) Cocaine positive
4) Stumbling drunk around the street with the police watching (incoherent and bizarre statements)
5) Hiding from the testers under the Octagon

and a bonus- beating his wife bloody! A true student of the Dana White "how to treat a woman" manual!
 
1. Wins the belt beating over the hill shogun that was just a plodding brawler after knee surgery
2. Got beat up by Gus but managed to get the dec thanks to Dana and Co
3. Beat DC twice with the help of some special vitamins (got suspended because of that)
4. Got his ass kicked by Reyes , still got the nod.
5. Wins UFC paper belt ,wrestling a guy with 0 ground game that lost his last fight and was not the champion.

Honorable mentions:
-Fights with the legendary tomato can Ovince Saint Preux (could not finish him)
-Went life and death against a middleweight with no legs.
