Anthony Johnson can relate to Jon Jones hitting 'rock bottom': 'He is where I was'

LAS VEGAS -- Anthony Johnson hosted the fan Q&A before UFC 184 weigh-ins back in February. The main topic of conversation at the time was Jon Jones and his positive cocaine test.

"Rumble" defended Jones adamantly then and his mind has not changed now -- not even after Jones was arrested last month on a felony hit-and-run charge.

"I still feel the same way, because people will smile at you in your face and then talk sh*t behind your back," Johnson said Thursday at UFC 187 media day at MGM Grand.
