UFC legend Jon Jones has reportedly been involved in a road rage incident in Albuquerque, New Mexico, where he is accused of being the primary aggressor. A video shared by Bryan Beltran captures the former two-division champion approaching Beltran’s vehicle, gesturing with a middle finger while keeping one hand in his pocket. Jones appears to realize he is being filmed and subsequently returns to his own truck.
Beltran elaborated on the encounter, stating that Jones’s truck nearly collided with his car on three separate occasions near Central and Eubank. After Beltran revved his engine following the first close call, and despite two more near misses, he eventually gestured disrespectfully towards Jones. In response, Jones allegedly stopped his vehicle in the middle of the road, reversed, and followed Beltran into a parking lot.
Beltran expressed his frustration, noting this was the second such incident involving a truck driver that week. He admitted not recognizing Jones when he initially flipped him off, but quickly identified the UFC star. Despite the confrontation, Beltran stated he holds “no hate or hard feelings” towards Jones, though he lightheartedly suggested Jones might benefit from driving lessons given the repeated close calls. He also expressed a desire to “squash the beef” with Jones in the future.
