    UFC light-heavyweight champion Jon (Bones) Jones has been arrested for DUI.
    Jones' management confirmed in a statement that the 24-year-old mixed martial arts fighter was arrested early Saturday.
    Jones manager Malki Kawa said in the release: "While the facts of this situation are still being gathered and situated, First Round Management fully supports Jon and we are asking for fans and media to respect the privacy of Jon and his family during this time."
    TMZ reported that Jones was arrested after crashing his Bentley around 5 a.m. in Binghamton, N.Y.
    Jones (16-1) makes his home in Endicott, N.Y., when not training in Albuquerque.
    Jones became the UFC's youngest ever champion when he defeated Mauricio (Shogun) Rua at UFC 128 in March 2011.

    I think this finally proves that Jones doesn't handle shots well.

    NON Issue...

    95% of Us have Driven Under the Influence of Alcohol...Jones ISN'T a Saint & Never Portrayed Himself as 1, so a Little Out of the Cage DIRT Isn't Going to Impact his Status 1 Way or the Other....

    I agree that it's not a big deal since all of us at one point or another drove intoxicated, hell Whiskey is probably driving around smashed as we speak. The only concerns I have is whether this is an isolated incident or a regular one. Mind you this is the first time he got "caught" doesn't necessarily mean it's the first time he's done it. All it takes is one accident when intoxicated and if you seriously hurt or kill someone you're going away for a long long time. I also wonder if this is just Jon being young or whether the fame is going to his head and he's developing I can get away with anything and do whatever I want attitude. As a fan of the sport I hope it's an isolated incident.

    I've driven under the influence. Hell, I've driven smashed up. It's not like he's doing fruity pebbles commercials or anything like that.

    Speaking of "Out of the Cage DIRT", it Wouldn't Surprise REED @ All if Jones is ALREADY Cheating on his Fiancee/Baby Momma...That's just Part of the METEORIC Rise Bones has Experienced...

    Pussy Thrown @ Him All Hours of the Day, Every City he's In, & Baby Momma CAN'T Always B There...

    Absolutely, Brother REED.:lol: I have been fortunate enough to live around the fight game for a while right now, not to mention other professional sports (nfl, mlb) and there is no doubt Jones is tapping (pun intended) into his stardom's benefits. Hell, pussy is thrown at Lyle Beerbohm and Cody Mckenzie left and right here at home just cuz they fight and have been on tv :lol: Jones made a youth mistake, he should have paid for a cab. He will be ok, shit happens everyday all over america.

    Knowing who his employer is, he probably couldn't afford it.
