Prior to having a more serious approach to MMA, Jon wrestled at Union-Endicott High School, becoming a state champion. Having finished with his high school education, Jones enrolled into Iowa Central University, and was active in sports there – one of his most prominent achievements was winning a national JUCO championship. However, he didn’t graduate from the mentioned college, transferring to Morrisville State College and studying Criminal Justice instead, but this plan didn’t work out for him either, as he ended up dropping out and pursuing a career in wrestling.
Career
Having left college, Jones debuted as a mixed martial artist in 2008, and in the following three months had six matches undefeated. In July of the same year Jon had his first UFC fight, and later scored a victory against Moyses Gabin. Jon is known for his technique and adaptability, and due to his success has been described by multiple media outlets as one of the best MMA fighters. His fighting style was also described as unorthodox – his most notorious move in the ring is the “oblique kick”.
His technique includes a strong clinch. He excelled in his skills training with Team BombSquad and Canadian Tristar Gym, based in Montreal. Lately, he has been training with Jackson’s MMA in Albuquerque, New Mexico.
Professional Controversies
In August 2017, it was revealed that Jon was flagged for a potential drug violation. As the sources stated, he was tested in July of that year and his samples came out positive for a steroid named Turinabol. In the aftermath of this drug scandal, Jones was suspended by the California State Athletic Commission.
Jon returned to UFC in the next year, scoring a victory against Alexander Gustafsson in the UFC Light Heavyweight division. He also has a years-long feud with fellow mixed martial artist Daniel Cormier – in 2018, having returned to the scene after his suspension, he called Cormier out saying that he has to prove that he’s a real champion.
Other Controversies
In one match in 2009, Jon was disqualified for using illegal elbows.
In 2012 he was the subject of a scandal when he drove a luxurious Bentley Continental car into a pole in New York City, as a result of which he was arrested, but was bailed by his mom. He allegedly ran through a red light, crashing not only his rental car, but also cars of two other people. Later on, Jon paid a $1,000 fine and pleaded guilty for driving under the influence. The controversies he’s been a part of expand to his professional life – in 2012, he declined fighting Chael Sonnen, who replaced Dan Henderson.
The event was condemned by fans and the media as it was the first match to ever be canceled in the 19 years of UFC. “Like I said, I don’t think this is going to make Jon Jones popular with the fans, sponsors, cable distributors, television network executives or other fighters”, one person concluded. In addition, the viewers judged him for poking his adversaries in the eyes, and he responded by making a video in which he parodied the whole situation by simulating crying.
