Jon Jones’ dominant run in the UFC was unfortunately marred by performance enhancing drugs. “Bones” popped twice, for clomiphene and letrozole then again for the anabolic steroid turinabol, which led to a main event cancellation and the stripping of his title.
These failed drug tests will be forever tied to Jones’ legacy. Although, if you ask WWE star and former UFC fighter Matt Riddle, the former perennial light heavyweight champion followed a “straight and narrow” path at one point in his life.
Speaking on the recent episode of ESPN’s DC & RC Show, Riddle shared his experiences with Jones during their days as high school wrestling competitors.
