Ultimate Fighting Championship star Jon “Bones” Jones has seen his fair share of controversial moments inside and outside of the octagon, but it looks like his drug test failure at “UFC 200” may be his latest offense.
There were rumors circulating in the mixed martial arts community that Jones had found himself in some trouble yet again and that there may be another suspension looming over his head, but reporter Ariel Helwani has reported that he has yet to hear anything of the sort:

Jones is currently serving another suspension for his failed “UFC 200” drug test that saw hydroxy-clomiphene, an anti-estrogen agent, and letrozole, an aromatase inhibitor pop up on an out-of-competition test. The flagged test would force Jones out of his main event championship bout with Daniel Cormier just days before their contest would take place, forcing Anderson Silva to step in and square off with Cormier on just one days notice.
Jones will be able to train and compete as soon as July 6, 2017 and as long as Jones stays out of trouble, he will make a massive impact on the light heavyweight division.
