Just when you thought traffic was stressful enough, enter Jon Jones, because apparently, even legends don’t get a pass from road rage.
Yes, the UFC icon, the man who has survived countless battles inside the octagon, has now been spotted in a different kind of fight on the road. No gloves, no referee. Just pure, unfiltered “Who cut me off?” energy.
According to the now-viral footage, things got heated fast. One minute it’s regular traffic, the next minute, it’s a full-blown confrontation that feels like it’s one bad sentence away from becoming a pay-per-view event.

The man, Bryan Beltran, says he was “almost hit three times” by Jones’ truck.
“You’re almost f–king hitting me bro,” Beltran said to Jones in the video posted online.
Jones left his vehicle to confront the driver, saying, “You gotta calm down bro. You gotta relax yourself bro,” and then flipping him off.
Beltran offered a lengthy recounting of the incident on his Instagram page, which has made waves since the confrontation surfaced online.
“I revved my car at him the first time it almost happened he still almost hit me twice after that so I flipped him off then he proceeded to stop in the middle of the road back up and come into the same parking lot,” he wrote on IG.
“The night before another guy in a truck pulled out in front [of] me so this was pretty annoying considering it was the second time a guy in a truck cant drive…i guess those are ABQ drivers for you stay safe.”
“Btw i know its John [sic] Jones i didn’t know who it was when i flipped him off but definitely realized who it was quick!” he said, with a laughing emoji. “No hate or hard feelings towards my guy John but i think he might need to take some driving classes cause he almost him (sic) multiple times😅. Hopefully soon i make another video where we can maybe shake hands and ‘squash the beef’😂😂 lol.”
One thing about road rage, if you don’t calm your temper, you might do something nasty that’ll throw you behind the bars.
“All of you with John’s meat in your mouth relax, it ain’t that deep,” he wrote. “I know he was a world champion, and no, I don’t think I could beat him in a fight lol. But like I said, he should still be more careful. Being famous or trained doesn’t matter when it comes to someone pulling a trigger. Anything can happen. And like I said, I don’t carry and didn’t try anything, so I’m not someone to worry about.”
At the end of the day, it’s just another case of emotions running high behind the wheel. It happens, just maybe not usually with someone who could probably submit you in under a minute.
Moral of the story? Drive safe, stay calm and if you ever find yourself arguing with Jon Jones in traffic, congratulations, you’ve officially chosen chaos.
