Apparently the situation may have been blown out of proportion, as it appears as if Jones simply received a traffic ticket, something that will have no effect on his highly anticipated return against champion Daniel Cormier at April 23’s UFC 197.

The two squared off once before at January 2015’s UFC 182, with “Bones” scoring a convincing one-sided decision before he was later stripped of his title after being arrested on felony charges.
