Jon Jones: I Was Living Like An Idiot
Former UFC light heavyweight champion Jon Jones has had one heck of 2015. He was on top of the world prior to April. He went from the top of the world to out of the sport in a flash.
Jones was alleged to be involved in a hit and run car accident back in April of this year. A crime that resulted in the UFC stripping him of the light heavyweight title and suspending him indefinitely. In September Jones plead guilty to one felony count of leaving the scene of a crash, which resulted in Jones being convicted of a 4th-degree felony. He will have supervised probation for up to 18 months. The judge ordered Jones to make 72 appearances as part of his probation.
Jones took to Twitter recently admitted that he was living life like an idiot.
You have every right to be disappointed, I was living like an idiot @alcowz took me a Little too long to realize that

Now, Jones is seeking a return to the octagon after being reinstated by the UFC recently. He hopes to fight at Madison Square Garden in New York City in 2016 against Cormier in a rematch for the UFC light heavyweight title.
