‘Rampage’ Jackson Says Jon Jones Is ‘Bad for the Sport’ Because He Injures Opponents

Quinton Jackson believes Jon Jones deserves a chance at redemption, but that doesn’t mean he is thrilled to hear about the imminent UFC return of “Bones.”

While “Rampage’s” own UFC future remains in doubt due to ongoing legal issues with Bellator MMA, he had some very distinct thoughts about his former foe being reinstated to the Las Vegas-based promotion earlier this week.

The ex-light heavyweight king recently avoided jail time for allegedly fleeing the scene of a hit-and-run accident in Albuquerque, N.M., in April. By striking a plea agreement, Jones received probation and thus far has fulfilled the terms of that deal, which allowed the Las Vegas-promotion to reinstate him.
