Jon Jones’ Phone Reportedly Hacked, Thief Throws Homophobic Slurs At Swedish Victim
One day after saying that he has three times the heart of number one contender Alexander Gustafsson, UFC light heavyweight Jon “Bones” Jones is back in the news for an entirely different (and strange) reason.
Somehow, the champ’s smart phone was apparently lifted recently, and the thief decided to take it upon himself to issue an assortment of homophobic slurs to an unwitting recipient in Sweden (photo courtesy of Bloody Elbow):
When Jones and his camp caught light of the situation, the champion was quick to explain the scenario on Twitter, noting that he had been hacked and was forced to change all of his social media passwords:
Just got a new phone. Changing all of my social media passwords. Apparently I was hacked.

Strange. The thief who hacked (or stole) Jones’ phone wasn’t finished, however, as a “selfie” of Jones in a speedo was posted from “Bones” Instagram account:
Quite the “interesting” story.
As for actual fighting, Jones will take on Glover Teixeira in the main event of UFC 172 on April 26 from the Baltimore Arena in Baltimore, Maryland, in an attempt to notch his record-setting eighth UFC light heavyweight title defense. Hopefully he can make it to the fight without too many more distractions.
