Police Release Jon Jones Crash Site Video, Ken Shamrock Wants Re-Matches, UFC Fight Night Weigh Ins
- Police lapel footage of officers searching the car of former UFC Light Heavyweight Champion Jon Jones has been released. The footage shows the officers discovering a marijuana pipe, condoms, and rental car registration in Jones' name. The police then speculate on if the car belonged to the UFC fighter.
Jones is facing charges of leaving the scene of an accident that caused injury, a felony. After turning himself in, he was stripped of his UFC Light Heavyweight Championship and suspended indefinitely by the company. Daniel Cormier and Anthony "Rumble" Johnson will now compete for the vacant championship later this month at UFC 187.
- Bellator fighter and UFC Hall of Famer Ken Shamrock has a high profile bout with Kimbo Slice next month. However, he says he has unfinished business with the likes of fellow Hall of Famers Royce Gracie and Tito Ortiz.
"That right there, if I could get that fight to happen with where I'm at today and where (Tito) is at today, it would be awesome," Shamrock said at a Bellator media day. It would definitely be something that I would appreciate if he did. But he doesn't have to. He beat me three times and he beat me fair and square."
Shamrock also said he wanted to fight Royce Gracie again, but only if Gracie wore a gi, which is illegal under the unified MMA rules. The two had a well documented rivalry in the 1990s.
