    Sounds like he will be able to travel for promotional affairs, so I'm starting to think yeah, he's back.

    Kind of a joke...

    The lady, if she choses to file, should clean up in a civil case.

    OFFICIAL JON "BONES" JONES STATEMENT

    "With regards to today's decision made by the court, I am very happy to now be able to put this incident behind me. My actions have caused pain and inconvenience in the lives of others and for that I am truly sorry and I accept full responsibility. I have been working hard during this time away from my sport to grow and mature as a man and to ensure that nothing like this happens again. I have learned a great deal from this situation and I am determined to emerge a better person because of it. I apologize to those who were affected by my actions in this incident and I am hopeful that I will be given the opportunity to redeem myself in the eyes of the public, my family and friends as well as my supporters. I am not sure what the future holds for me but I plan to continue to do the work needed to be productive and successful in every aspect of my life. “

    OFFICIAL UFC STATEMENT

    The UFC organization is aware that Jon Jones reached a plea agreement with authorities in Albuquerque, New Mexico this morning stemming from charges associated with a motor vehicle accident earlier this year. As a result, UFC, through Las Vegas-based law firm Campbell & Williams, will thoroughly review the agreement before discussing Jones’ possible reinstatement to return to competition.

    More information will be made available following completion of this review.

    If Jones is coming back, they should save it for SB weekend, as they seem to like to make that a big event.
