Jon Jones opens up about drug-test failure: ‘I’m a victim of my own ignorance’

Jon Jones said adamantly in a press conference two weeks ago that he never knowingly took any performance-enhancing drugs. The interim UFC light heavyweight champion doubled down on that sentiment Monday on Twitter.

Jones, MMA's pound-for-pound king, tweeted that he has already sent "products to a lab" in an effort to clear his name. In another tweet, Jones said he's a "victim of his own ignorance." Jones seems to be leaning toward a tainted supplement test after failing a USADA drug test before UFC 200.

I'll disclose to the public when I find out, already sent products to a lab.
