He even went close to her face and threatened her. Crystal Martinez made a surprise entry at his house on March 30 along with her colleague Jerome Romero. The officers arrived for a surprise drug test which caught the champion off guard. However, the officers claim that ‘Bones’ was offended at the timing of the test.

Jones took to his Instagram account to share a lengthy statement regarding the unprofessional attitude of the agents. However, he also claimed that the anti-doping officers left his property on a good note and exchanged high fives and hugs. This was not the first time his controversy involved a female. He is famous for his car crash incident where he fled off the scene with a pregnant woman involved in it. ‘Bones’ later took full responsibility off the incident and even apologized for it.
