‘Bones’ was equally up to the task. His reply gave us a glimpse as to how he overcomes adversity and remains successful.
Yes, I guess my character gets too drunk when he drinks. I’m not going to allow that to outweigh all the awesome things about myself. Some people only focus on what they want I guess. I focus on my good traits, that’s probably the reason why I thrive every year https://t.co/2z6R8ebz42

Jon Jones is not of the title despite his latest brush with the law. He is on supervised probation and will be allowed to fight. ‘Bones’ last competed in the Octagon at UFC 247. He retained the UFC Lightweight Championship with a win over Dominick Reyes. Fans are divided over this as they feel Reyes had done enough to hand Bones his first non-disqualification loss in the company.
The UFC Lightweight Champion’s probation may see him unable to make it Dana White’s Fight Island. However, like all the other fighters he continues to train and stay ready.
