Jon Jones isn’t shy about talking about his coke use. To be honest, it’s way more common than you think. Jones is very open about it and he doesn’t mind it all.
He spoke to Bleacher Report about how he’s not the bad guy people are looking for. He has enough transgressions on his track record for people to see him otherwise.
Here’s what he had to say about people viewing him that way because of his coke use,
As far as me doing coke before a fight, that’s not me trying to be a bad guy. That’s me frickin’ doing a bump — you know, at a party
It’s an extremely casual activity for him as he continues on,
If you can afford to smoke a little weed, and do a little coke, and still win world titles, who’s to tell you you can’t?
Then, he opens up about coke use among athletes in general.
The truth of the matter is, you’d be surprised how many people have done coke. I’ve been around some of the greatest athletes in the country. Athletes with a lot bigger names than me do coke. But people don’t talk about it.
Athletes have the world in their hands so this isn’t surprising. Now, WHO exactly is doing it would be more interesting and probably some shockers would be on that list.
