‘Half-empty bottle’ found in Jon Jones’ car during DWI arrest was Jorge Masvidal’s mezcal

As he’d done a few times in the past, Jon Jones got himself in trouble with the law once again. The current UFC light heavyweight champion was arrested early Thursday morning in Albuquerque, on multiple charges including aggravated DWI and negligent use of firearms.

As more details came out, police officers noted that among those found in Jones’ vehicle were a loaded handgun, and a partially empty bottle of “Recuerdo 750ml.”

El Recuerdo Mezcal is the brand being endorsed by none other than “BMF” champion Jorge Masvidal.

“Gamebred” made his product launch in mid-January, ahead of UFC 246.
