According to you, how many 'elite' years does he realistically still have left to rebuild his legacy,
knowing that he hasnt suffered that much damage (Vitor Gracie / Gus) and that his camp/coaches are pretty 'conservative'?
The question is will he ever even fight again...
Lets say he is suspended 4 years until 2021, thats three years from now.
Lets look at the last few years in Jones life..
2008 - Crashes into two parked cars
2009 - cited for another traffic offence
2010 -
2011 - caught driving on a suspended licence
2012 - crashes into a utility pole,. refuses a sobriety test. Forced to undergo an alcohol awareness program and has licence suspended
2013 -
2014 - Made to do 40 hours community service after his brawl with Cormier in the hotel lobby
2015 - Fined 25k for testing posiive for cocaine
2015 - crashes into another car and runs away from the scene before returning to grab money and drugs
2016 - tests positive for an estrogen blocker, banned for one year by usada
2017 - returns from his ban and tests positive for turinabol.. facing four year suspension..
2018 - ??
2019 - ??
2020 - ??
2021 - ??
He has never managed to go more than a year without fucking up.
Does anyone truly believe he will make it to 2021 without fucking up again?
Honestly, If hes suspended to 2021 I cannot see any possible way that he goes three years without either testing positive again, or ending up in jail.
