Jones: ‘Chael Almost Gained My Favor In Handling Of Failed Drug Test’

“I watched him on UFC Tonight. I thought he handled it very responsibly. I really admired him being vulnerable and telling the world about the situation with his wife and things like that. I’ve been very vocal about not respecting steroid users and guys who cheat. But Chael almost gained an exception with the way he handled it and the way he was so honest and upfront with the fans and all the fighters about the whole situation.

“It was never good for the sport to see something like this. But in a way, it was a win for Chael because he got some things off his chest and just be real about everybody.”

In a recent interview with ‘The MMA Hour‘, Jon Jones discussed the recent drug testing failure, subsequent retirement and all other things regarding Chael P. Sonnen.
