Derek Brunson, a former UFC middleweight, reminisces about his bond with Jon Jones during their shared time in Albuquerque from 2011 to 2014. In a social media post, Brunson recalls advising Jones to prioritize fun over troubled behaviors, only for Jones to respond with a statement that indicated his need for support rather than parental guidance. As Jones retires, his exceptional fighting legacy is marred by personal troubles, including recent misdemeanor charges, raising questions about his future and well-being.
I don't need a dad, I need a friend.
I have to be honest with my friends.
Let's just hang out with the ladies and have fun, the extra stuff isn't needed.
Jon Jones's legacy is strong, but his troubles outside the cage overshadow his achievements.
