Jon Jones Flips Off Driver After Road Rage Blowup Caught on Camera in Albuquerque

The heavyweight champ just can't stay out of the headlines. Jon Jones got caught up in a full-blown road rage incident that's now all over the internet, and the whole thing was captured on video. This is the kind of distraction Jones doesn't need right now.

According to Bryan Beltran, Jones nearly hit his car not once, not twice, but three times while driving. When Beltran flipped him off in response, Jones didn't back down. Instead, he stopped his truck, threw it in reverse, and actually followed Beltran into a parking lot. That's when Beltran realized exactly who he was dealing with.

The Video That's Making Waves

Beltran captured the whole confrontation on his Meta glasses, and the footage is blowing up online. In the video, you can hear Beltran clearly frustrated: "Well bro what are you trying to get into? You almost fu**ing hitting me, bro. You gotta learn how to drive. You almost hit me with your truck, bro."

Jones' response? Cool as ice on the surface, telling him to relax: "Yo, you gotta calm down, bro. You gotta relax yourself." Then he threw up the middle finger.

What Comes Next

Here's the interesting part: Beltran says he's not actually angry at Jones. He even hopes they can shake hands and move past it. Still, he thinks Jones needs to be more careful behind the wheel.

As for Jones himself? He hasn't said a word about the incident yet. He's been focused on his fighting career, dealing with contract negotiations with the UFC and talk about potential matchups. But now this road rage blowup is pulling all the attention away from the octagon and straight back to his personal conduct. Dana White hasn't weighed in either, but this kind of drama isn't going to help Jones' case.
