You may have heard about the poor guy with the same name and UFC LHW champ Jon Jones who has the twitter handle: @JonJones.  He was ambushed by MMA fans and called all sorts of things after the UFC 151 fallout.  I had the pleasure to speak with @JonJones about this situation and uncovered that some big players in the MMA industry took notice and decided to do the right thing.  You can read more about @JonJones and about how he has become a overnight celebrity at http://www.fighterstyle.com/jon-jones-mistaken-identity
