Since then, the fighter has denied laying hands on his fiancee, Jessie Moses and Jon has also been kicked out of his gym Jack Wink MMA in Alburquerque, New Mexico.
The fighter put out a tweet after his momentary ban which said he was hurt by his coach’s decision to not take his side.

“Jon put a tweet and deleted it and it was just disgusting. The tweet was disgusting and he said, ‘it really hurts bad to have one of my coaches who I respect so much turn away from me, for the rest of the coaches going for that fight with me, we continue,’ and deleted it. It is disgusting because he uses the word team. You have the most selfish guy in sport using the word team when convenient,” said Chael in his reaction video.
Jons coach, Mike Winkeljohn revealed that he won’t be letting Jones into his gym despite their special connection for so many years. The coach insists Jon get his act together before he steps foot into his gym. A lot of MMA personalities commended Winkeljohn for his decision.
