After a plea agreement with the prosecutors, Jon Jones, UFC fighter, has had domestic abuse charges against his dropped.
In exchange for the dismissal of domestic abuse charges, the 34-year old American plead not guilty to a misdemeanor charge involving destruction of property valued between PS18-PS37.
After a plea agreement, Jones saw his domestic abuse charges dropped.
According to court documents, he was ordered to pay PS562 as restitution to the victim and receive counseling for anger management.
According to TMZ, he also agreed that he would abide by a court order to'stay away from trouble'.
Jones was initially arrested in September and charged with domestic violence as well as felony vehicle tampering.
This incident occurred after the UFC Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas.
TMZ was informed by cops that they received a call at 5.45am Friday morning from Caesars Palace.
They made contact with UFC's star fighter when they arrived. He was later arrested for misdemeanor domestic abuse and injuring or manipulating a vehicle.
According to reports, Jones' fiancee claimed that Jones touched her but didn't strike her.
Jones claimed that he had quit drinking after the incident and was now focusing on his MMA career.
Jones is widely regarded as one of the greatest UFC fighters ever.
Although he has dominated light-heavyweight, he has not fought since UFC 247 in February 2020 when he retained his title as light heavyweight champion.
In August last year, he vacated the title while trying to make the move to heavyweight.
Jones was arrested in New Mexico and pleaded guilty to driving under the influence just months before he quit the championship.
Cops arrested the fighter after he was found alone in his Jeep by officers. He appeared intoxicated and had admitted to having drank earlier in the night.
He reached a deal with the prosecutors and signed a one year supervised probation. In addition, he said that he would serve 96 hours in community custody.
Jones was convicted of a 2012 DUI, hit-and run in 2015, and battery at a strip bar in 2019. He also received a 2020 DWI.
He also failed drug screenings in 2015, 2016, and 2017.
