UFC Light Heavyweight champ Jon "Bones" Jones was arrested early this morning for DUI after he totaled his Bentley in upstate New York ... TMZ has learned.
Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... Jones was involved in an accident at around 5:00 AM in Binghamton, NY. We're told the car -- which Jones crashed into a pole -- was totaled and cops arrested Jones on the scene for DUI.
According to our sources, Jones was taken into custody by Broome County Sheriff and bailed out a few hours later ... by his mom. Jones is from nearby Ithaca.
Jones last fought on April 21, defeating Rashad Evans by unanimous decision.

Jon Jones wrote:"“We came up with a strategy to keep it clean and be sponsored by the UFC itself. I’m glad the UFC wanted to work with me as well, and I think that they trust that I’ll never make them look bad. You never have to worry about me with a DWI (driving while under the influence) or doing something crazy,” Jones explained.

By his posters, buy his shirts, get his autographs, watch shows that he's on, follow him on Twitter, Like his Facebook page, buy his PPV's...
...but please, respect their privacy during his fuckups.

Does he come from family money? If not I hope he bought a certified pre-owned Bentley, because paying full list price for a new model might not be a sound financial decision for a professional fighter from a low income upbringing.

A Bentley?
I can't wait to read the news stories from 2017 when Jones is dead broke and a gaggle of baby mommas chasing him for child support payments.

Genuinely disappointed to hear about the DUI. I've seen him in his Bentley. He's into cars and this was a treat. A sports car not a Rolls Royce clone. Thought he was a pretty humble, hard-working kid with talent. He's only about 24 so this might be the making of him. Henderson has a chance if he goes in like a Berserker and fights claustraphobically balls-to-the-wall from the bell. This hullaballoo helps.

Since when is a pro athlete getting a DUI news? Besides, iff he'd been playing for a good Bills team there would have been no sobriety test.
