UFC Light Heavyweight Champion Jon Jones was fined $50,000 and ordered to serve 40 hours of community service as a result of his UFC 178 media day brawl with Daniel Cormier on August 4, 2014.
The discipline was handed down to Jones during his hearing today with the Nevada State Athletic Commission.
Jones commented on the result of his NSAC hearing via social media. You can read his comments below.
Daniel Cormier’s hearing with the NSAC will take place later today.
40 hours of community service in Vegas with a fight coming up is the only thing that really concerns me.

The fact that this needs to be completed before the fight is definitely going to have effect on my camp. I respect the commission though

I am excited I get to work with kids though that part is a blessing in disguise. I'll give them my best
