\nUFC code of conduct violators, who do so on social media, will always and forever have an easy-out for saying things they may regret later.<\/p>\n

And they can thank Jon Jones, and his recent campaign of misinformation, for this ‘Violators Guide to Keeping Your Job.’<\/p>\n

Recently the UFC light-heavyweight champion was accused of tormenting a young man with homophobic insults on instagram<\/a>. Jones’ manager immediately said his phone was stolen<\/a>, while Jones himself said his social media was hacked<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Now, in a recent interview with Newsday<\/a>, we have a third version of what happened and it’s actually pretty believable.<\/p>\n

Check it:<\/p>\n

“One of the guys that\u2019s working for us took it into his own hands to reply to the fans some negative stuff. I don\u2019t know if the dude thought he was logged in under his name or if he knew he was logged in under my name. By the time I found out all that stuff had happened, it had been on the Internet for hours.”<\/em>
\n
\n“I’ve been called a ni**** before on social media. I had one guy say my kids deserve to be molested on social media. I’ve had guys insult me for having a white fiancee and threatened my family’s life. So I’ve dealt with some real social media shit. I’ve had real-life stuff happen to me, so for somebody to say I lost to Gustafsson isn’t even worth getting my attention.”<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
