Ryan Bader and Jon Jones met in the UFC Octagon on February 5, 2011. That fight ended via guillotine. The victor, Jones, faced ‘Shogun’ Rua in his next fight for the UFC light heavyweight title. The rest is history. Though, thanks to Jones’ off the field issues, it’s an extremely controversial history.
Jones’ present is also controversial for matters not related to the sport of MMA. Recently he was arrested at a hotel in Las Vegas and charged with battery domestic violence. It is alleged that one of Jones’ children asked hotel staff to call police after an incident involving their mother, Jones’ long-time fiancée.
