Former Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) 205-pound titleholder Jon Jones is facing some heavyweight charges after being arrested in Las Vegas on Friday morning, where “Bones” was booked on battery domestic violence, as well as injuring and tampering with a vehicle.

That’s according to a report from ESPN.

Jones was in “Sin City” for his Hall of Fame induction alongside fellow light heavyweight veteran Alexander Gustafsson, though UFC President Dana White indicated there were no plans to talk about the former champ’s future at 265 pounds.

Jones was teasing a UFC return in the second half of 2022.

“I think when I come back as a heavyweight I’ll think I’ll do more legally controversial shit so I can sell more pay-per-views,” Jones told reporters on Thursday. “I’m gonna have to work for the money I get so I’m gonna have to sell the fight. I have always just focused on winning.”

I’m pretty sure this isn’t what Jones had in mind.
