Jon Jones is back!
Well, sort of. The former Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) light heavyweight champion, who was a daily presence on social media, vanished from Twitter and Instagram after he was bounced from the world's largest mixed martial arts (MMA) promotion back in April.
Then came this recent photo from Izzy Style Wrestling.
As expected, fans were quick to send their ... love?
darantanakamma: Jon jones! Dude we miss you come back healthy and stronger than ever. It's all in the mind.
mikeojeda44: Jon jones come back! We all miss you and I'll always support you!
powerbet: Everyone makes mistakes it's how you come back from those mistakes jon jones will be ok in whatever he does even if no MMA comeback. But hope so jon get ur belt bk
Jones is fortunate to have so many well wishers, considering the severity of the charges levied against him earlier this year in Albuquerque, New Mexico (more on that here). "Bones" could be facing jail time later this year as he waits for the district attorney to move forward.
Until then?
All "Bones" can do is train and try to get his head screwed on straight. Or as one Instagram user wrote:
hrady_boflin: All these dumb fucks think everything they read in the media is true, he's a real person who makes real mistakes, if all of us were put in the same spotlight I'd hate to see the shit they dig up on us...
