Jon Jones agreed to a plea deal on five traffic citations related to a drag racing incident in March. MMAjunkie reports that Jones received a ninety-day suspended sentence after agreeing to the deal with prosecutors in charges of drag racing, exhibition driving, weaving, failing to properly display his license, and modifying his exhaust pipe.

Jones pled guilty to the liences and exhaust in the deal; he will complete an aggressive driving course and sixty hours of community service, as well as paying a $143 fine. At the time of the March incident in Albuquerque, he was doing probation for his hit-and-run case in 2015. The fifty-one hours of community service that he completed as part of his probation violation will count toward the sixty hours.
