Jon Jones' management team on recent arrest: 'We are taking this very seriously'

on Jones was arrested Tuesday in New Mexico for a probation violation.

Following the news of his arrest Tuesday afternoon, Jones' management team released the following statement to MMAFighting.com:


"Jon and his team are taking this very seriously, and we will let the legal process play out.

"We are confident he will be released once he has an opportunity to explain to the judge the facts in this case."

The UFC issued the following statement to the media following the news, as well:

"UFC is aware that Jon Jones turned himself into the Albuquerque Police Department this morning for a potential probation violation stemming from a traffic stop last week.

"UFC has been in touch with Jones' legal team and will have no further comment until the organization has had appropriate time to gather necessary information."

According to sources close to Jones, they are confident this latest situation will be resolved in short order and that it won't affect his ability to fight Daniel Cormier on April 23 in Las Vegas.

"I definitely wasn't drag racing," Jones said on Monday's episode of The MMA Hour. "I got emotional and said some things that I probably shouldn't have said to a police officer."

shoulda just taken probation seriously...or you know, laws in the first place

Good old fashioned crime of being a rich, successful black guy in a nice car.

That cop was oozing hate. This is a setup - y'all know it.

Hopefully they drop it. Once you're on probation and such... I dunno it seems to me like they're gonna want to get as much money out of him as they can. More fines, more probation, more fees

He should just stay in jail.. he'd be out in a few weeks with no probation

 

[Roca]

Just like last time

 

[Pastafarian2]

 

[Sparkie]

he should have hired a driver like so many people had said to him
in retrospect

Lol, cop did nothing but banter back. They were practically talking like lovers in a quarrel. Ohh, how do you sleep... Ohhh I sleep on my side.

Needs more seriousness

"We're taking this very seriously."

Yeah, you better fucking be.

Breaking rocks in the hard sun....

 

[restrepo]

hes also in a corvette with a giant aftermarket spoiler and probably exhaust too(since the cop mentioned it) while on felony probation after 2 incidents where his driving fucked him

on top of that he starts to cuss out the cop instead of letting his high priced lawyer handle it? hate or not, jon is handling this like a fucking retard

That's just it, I can't understand for the life of me why he doesn't just chill. Cars are his kryptonite, let someone else drive you around. Lay low if you are gonna drive. Don't rev your engine and draw attention to yourself. Smile and drive the speed limit. Don't be a fool, Jesus..

I hate the blacks lives matter org and I side with the cops on most issues. But the timing of this and the charge is very suspicious.

 

[The Witcher]

Jones is a shit bloke, we all know it.

 

[Xaero]

we are taking this very seriously = we're calling Dana to have him pay off some people again

 

[GusLost]

He should be able to post bail after the arraignment for the p.v. I think

 

[CoachBombay]

Not a Jones fan but this whole thing seems a bit silly. Who knows though maybe the cop is a cuck and this all just foreplay for Jones to stick it to his wife.

Culinary Union is behind this.
