light heavyweight champion Jon Jones pleaded no contest to a reduced charge of
disorderly conduct in connection with an incident at an Albuquerque, N.M., strip
club in April. The plea means he doesn’t admit whether he is guilty or not and
he reached a plea deal with prosecutors. If he stays out of trouble for the next
90 days then the case will be dismissed. Jones was accused of battery after an
incident that supposedly happened on 4/19 at TD’s Eubank Showclub, where a
waitress claimed he made inappropriate contact with her, even after she told him
to stop. She claimed he touched her inappropriately then when she complained he
put her in a rear-naked choke hold and lifted her off the ground. But no
witnesses saw Jones do it and the victim decided to not to pursue battery
charges against him. And so the case just went away. Jones has denied the
incident ever took place.
