"Keeping up appearances" - Israel Adesanya reacts to Jon Jones' recent social media post with fiancée Jessie Moses
Israel Adesanya has jibed at Jon Jones yet again. Adesanya took to Instagram to share a meme, poking fun at Jones for his recent social media post with fiancée Jessie Moses.
Take a look at the meme below:
In the post, Adesanya seemingly insinuates that Jon Jones forced his fiancée to put up a front on social media following Jones' recent arrest.
A few hours after the UFC's hall-of-fame induction ceremony in Las Vegas, the former light heavyweight was arrested on charges of domestic battery, misdemeanor and tampering with a police vehicle.
Shocking details later emerged following the arrest. Reports indicated that Jones likely got into a physical altercation with Jessie in front of their children. She came to the lobby of the Caesars Palace Hotel & Casino looking for first aid and assistance. She was apparently injured and bleeding from her nose and mouth.
Jon Jones was arrested early Friday morning by the Las Vegas Metro PD, a police spokesperson told ESPN. Jones is being charged with battery domestic violence and injuring and tampering with a vehicle. More info coming to @espn.
Jessie told police that Jones had apparently pulled her by the hair to stop her from leaving their hotel room. However, the couple seems to have gotten past the incident. Jones recently posted a video with Jessie where they appear to be affectionate with each other.
