Jon Jones tests POSITIVE for COCAINE on the way to rehab......however he will retain title.

[The Devil's Advocate]

LAS VEGAS – UFC light heavyweight champion Jon Jones announced Tuesday that he has entered a drug treatment facility.


The announcement came just days after Jones defeated Daniel Cormier on Saturday in the main event of UFC 182 at the MGM Grand Garden in a five-round decision that left many considering him as the greatest mixed martial arts fighter of all-time.

But in a random drug test given to him on Dec. 4 by the Nevada Athletic Commission, Jones tested positive for benzoylecgonine, the main metabolite in cocaine.

The Nevada commission follows the World Anti-Doping Agency code and benzoylecgonine is not banned out-of-competition. As a result, the commission was unable to penalize Jones or prevent him from fighting despite knowing of the positive test.

It conducted a follow-up test later in December that Jones passed. Yahoo Sports was unable to get the exact date of the second test that Jones passed.

Jones released a statement to Yahoo Sports through his attorney acknowledging his problem.

"With the support of my family, I have entered into a drug treatment facility. I want to apologize to my fiancée, my children, as well as my mother, father, and brothers for the mistake that I made. I also want to apologize to the UFC, my coaches, my sponsors and equally important to my fans. I am taking this treatment program very seriously. Therefore, at this time my family and I would appreciate privacy."
The UFC had no immediate comment.

Francisco Aguilar, the commission chairman, had little to say. He said the commission is going to discuss out-of-competition drug tests at its next meeting and whether to break from the WADA code in similar situations.

"I am pleased that Mister Jones is addressing this issue and seeking help for his problem," Aguilar said.

The test given to Jones was analyzed for anabolic agents, peptide hormones, growth factors and related substances, beta-2 agonists, hormone and metabolic modulators, diuretics and other masking agents, stimulants, narcotics, canabinoids and glucocorticosteroids.

my homegirl told me all about this dude YEARS ago

she's so uppity that she hates on anything not perfect... so i figured she was bullshytting... said he's a known cokehead and a dikkhead and he's cool with her baby dad and lives right up the street


so when i saw this i texted her... she was on some oh really

thought i was bullshytting huh


dude literally been a cokehead for his entire ufc reign and still beating these dudes ass

i wonder if he'll be better on or off the drugs on some mic tyson shyt

ill absolutely buy 1 in 4 or 5 who actually tried it once. that means 3 quarters or more of the population havent even experimented with it once, let alone use it semi regularly. its hardly an everyday, normal activity

Normal is too strong of a word.....However, its not normal to ingest something 5 times a week that reeks havoc on your liver, kidneys, heart, brain, stomach, and G.I. tract.....like alcohol does.....

Normal behavior is prescribed to us...Its not something that we've defined on our own accord....



But you right....most people who do or try coke only do it for an extremely short term basis.......It doesn't stick with most people long term.

your probably right, you dont go to rehab if you've experimented with it a couple of times. hes a full out coke junkie

 

[Raw Lyrics]

there is a large step up from having a beer or a cup of coffee to cocaine use. apples to oranges

Word!!! It's like:

"Hey Bruh....wanna hit this blunt?"

"Nah, I'm trying to cut down on weed....gonna stick to crack for now"


Not all intoxicants are created equal.

 

[Raw Lyrics]

People in here really trying to justify cocaine use?

 

[Raw Lyrics]

I don't do any

of course it would be a white boy telling people cocaine usage is NORMAL

There is a reason why selling cocaine has one the harshest drug penalties in the majority of countries, it destroys lives

at you thinking thats the reason it has harsh penalties. COCAINE IS ARGUABLY SAFER THAN ALCOHOL

 

[pimpineasy]

Bones nose yaye

 

[Propaganda]

your probably right, you dont go to rehab if you've experimented with it a couple of times. hes a full out coke junkie

that's not necessarily true. i mean, he could be a legit cokehead but the rehab could just as easily be for PR purposes more than him having a real problem with it.

I don't think anyone was suggesting drinking alcohol 5 times a week as being normal. Cocaine is highly addictive and it's pretty difficult for most people to engage in casual use of it, without becoming addicted.


Bones knew he was going to be randomly tested in December and still couldn't wait a few weeks to casually use the cocaine?


And Bones already admitted he had a problem by checking himself in, you can argue that it's a PR campaign, but unless you can get inside his heads and read his thoughts, you're just going to have to accept that his action of checking himself into rehab means HE HAS A PROBLEM.




I think fans of the sports are right in questioning whether or not Bones used cocaine a few minutes before the fight. Cocaine can arguably help numb you to pain...which may have actually help his performance not hinder it....unlike alcohol. He was eating them uppercuts like dollar menu cheeseburgers.

coke is straight. Ive done it a few times, one in Vegas, second time in Houston. Both times I was heavily pressured by females, it seems to be a normal thing to do on some party scenes. Ironically, both nights spiraled WAY out of control. Ended up drinking a stupid amount. I could see it being easy to get caught up in if you are constantly partying.
