Jon Jones is officially cleared to return to the Octagon. The former UFC light heavyweight champion and pound-for-pound great was "formally reinstated" to the UFC roster on Friday after serving an indefinite suspension for his involvement in an April hit-and-run accident that left one pregnant victim with a broken arm.
The UFC's statement can be read below:
Following a review of the plea agreement reached by Jon Jones and officials in Albuquerque, New Mexico, and the judge's decision, UFC announced today the formal reinstatement of Jones to the UFC roster. Effectively immediately, Jones is eligible to return to competition.
