Exiled UFC champ Jon Jones gets unwavering support from an unlikely place...

Former Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) light heavyweight champion Rashad Evans, perhaps above anyone else, is the one guy in mixed martial arts (MMA) who can point at Jon Jones -- stripped of his title and suspended from the promotion -- and say, See? I told you so!

But he won't.

Probably because Evans, despite their personal history, has the ability to separate the combat sports business from the human being business. To that end, "Suga" is hoping that "Bones" can slay whatever demons pursue him en route to finishing his career on a high note.
