Police bodycam video shows emotional Jon Jones get ticketed for drag racing

Jon Jones was given five traffic tickets, including one for drag racing, early Friday morning after being pulled over. On Monday, the Albuquerque Police Department released the officer's body cam video of the incident.

In the video, an angry Jones vehemently denies that he was drag racing and disputes the other tickets as well. Jones was also given citations for an ordinance against a modified exhaust (vehicle disturbance), an illegible license plate, unable to maintain a traffic lane and exhibition driving. The former UFC light heavyweight champion accused the officer of "harassing" him.

"I cannot wait for you to prove that I was drag racing, because I know for a fact that I wasn't," Jones said.
