Dude beat his fiancee, I don't think he deserves another chance to be honest. He's had chance after chance to shape up, but he continues to do dumb things.
As a Martial Artist I respect what he has done but outside of that he's a freaking idiot. I know cats like him that can't get out of their own way. He's going to turn 50, be dead broke, and trying to get a fight on triller.
Honestly that may be the likely outcome going forward. I don't see the UFC taking another chance after this. Especially with the phone call and other details coming out about the incident. Dudes done I think.

    you guys may be underestimating dana white. all he cares about is money.
    if jj came back next year bulked up for a HW superfight with ngannou. he would quickly forgive and forget.


    Bones had the skills & talent to be the best in the world, but he couldn't stay out of his own way.
    One day, there's going to be a hell of a movie about what he could've been.
    i mean. even better than silva.
    but.... trouble finds him without fail.

    yeah he popped on the DC fight and the gustaffason fight. but i think that one got moved last minute.
    but i think even with fumbling the bag he can still come back and put butts in the seats and dana knows that.
    and thats really the only thing they care about.

    he could go to trial for attempted murder, get aquitted and come back for a superfight with anyone, i promise ill be front and center. i hated on him a long time on his way up but when he started putting away monsters like shogun, machida and belfort he earned my respect, but lost it again when he was found to be cheating. i have no respect for cheaters so i have a love/hate relationship with em.

    We’ll see, I think you may be overestimating Dana too. I think they’re done with JBJ.

    Of course, Dana White is a greedy douche who only cares about himself.

    But I think Jon Jones has had too many chances to fix his problems, and yet he keeps failing. I think there is a time when the UFC has so say bye to Jones, and I think this is it. With social media the way it is now, I can see this blowing up if the UFC is to give him another chance.

    But like you said, Dana White could bring him back. Maybe they'll wait a year or two for the situation to blow over. I could see that happening.

    and he hasnt exactly been taking care of himself. sniffing coke kinda wears on ya.
