The story says that he left, came back to grab some cash from the vehicle and left again, but there was marijuana left in his rental vehicle.. If your going to back to grab the cash... At least take the pot with you

So... that one day in rehab worked wonders for him then?

Unbelievable!

Was looking forward to his fight against Anthony Johnson. Wanted Anthony to become the next champion by beating Jon Jones.

I know someone who had completely restructured he and his wife's Vegas holiday around the Jones fight at a not insignificant cost. Brutal.

Has to be substance abuse issues here; certainly there are character issues.

I was a big fan of Jon Jones; it's terrible to see this from him. The cocaine revelation was strongly suggestive of his inner turmoil, but this latest event is clearly the most serious indication yet that he's in need of real help.

I hope that he can face whatever it is that is driving his drug use and come to terms with his character issues. He was a great fighter, and if he can get himself together, could salvage his career.
