This is horrible for the sport. Yea pro athletes get DUI all the time but with mma everything is under more scrutiny because of the influx of ignorant haters.
The fact that it's the guy the UFC is trying to make the face of the company makes it even worse.

^If he were not ok, I would not be laughing. But with the perfect role model mask that he puts on, I find this hilarious.

Man, that sucks. I wonder if it will affect the Hendo fight. At least he's alright and didn't hurt anybody else.

Ha ha, remember what he said when he got sponsored by the UFC? Quote: |
“We came up with a strategy to keep it clean and be sponsored by the UFC itself. I’m glad the UFC wanted to work with me as well, and I think that they trust that I’ll never make them look bad. You never have to worry about me with a DWI (driving while under the influence) or doing something crazy,” Jones explained."

Wow, Jon...
This is extremely disappointing.
Pretty upsetting news to me.
AND you totalled the Bentley? Fuck, man.
Just put a dent in the image and wasted a ton of money.
EDIT: WHY, JON, WHY!? DUI's result from dipshit decisions!
