Whoops! Jon Jones bombarded by callers after court docs revealed home address and phone number

Hey, remember those court documents that were released to the media last week, the ones that went into great detail about the hit-and-run accident allegedly caused by former Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) light heavyweight champion Jon Jones?

They revealed the ex-champ's home address and private phone number.

Doh!

Why weren't they blacked out? Because it's legal for courts to release that information in New Mexico and personal details will only be redacted by request, according to KOAT, something that may have been overlooked by the legal eagles at the Law Office of Oops & Uh-Oh.

As a result, poor Jones -- stripped of his title and suspended by UFC -- was bombarded by anonymous callers, and as we've already demonstrated, the mixed martial arts (MMA) community has its fair share of whack jobs (present company included). It should be noted that attorneys have since gone back and successfully had that information sealed.

Better late than never, I suppose.
