In a YouTube video titled, ".," Mitch Jones played a series of clips showing the injuries caused by the alleged assault. One of the clips showed the Twitch streamer with bruises on his neck and temple. He said:

"All right, so there's that (bruises on his neck). I guess I got sucked here (The streamer puts finger on his temple) first. I also have, like, swelling over here. I don't know. I got f**ked up. My brain hurts hella bad."

Jones then showed another video, which, according to him, was taken while he was undergoing a CT scan. Showcasing his broken tooth, the content creator said:

"The doctor is getting my head checked. Getting a CT scan. I have bruising from where Mizkif hit me. He definitely socked me in here, here, and here. Here (The streamer points to his temple) is where, I think, I got knocked out. And then, he choked me. I have bruising everywhere on my face. Hopefully, I don't have a concussion. Also... my tooth got f**ked up. I'll get that fixed, though."

The 31-year-old then told his side of the story, claiming that he was at Mizkif's house when they had an argument. He said:

"I was at his house, we were arguing, and then, I asked him for a ride home. I get in his car, we're still arguing, and that's when we drive past this part of the neighborhood, where the camera caught the assault. And, I have the evidence right here."

Mitch Jones played security camera footage that showed the streamers driving Mizkif's Audi R8. The Texas native did not reveal the entire footage, instead showcasing two moments from the incident: one in which the car was seen stopping in front of a house and another in which he was seen sitting on the road.

During their argument, Mizkif accused Jones of "pulling him out of the car" and yelled:

"You're trash! Do you want to do it again? Huh? You said you can take me seven times. You even listen to yourself? You're drunk and on cocaine! I tried to talk to you as a friend, you're treating me like s**t! You make me want to kill myself! And all I can say is, 'F**k you!' And all you do is say, 'F**k you!' You treated me like s**t! You pulled me out of the car and said, 'Let's go.' You can't say, 'Let's go!'"

Meanwhile, Jones could be heard saying:

"What is wrong with you? You broke my tooth. You broke my tooth! I don't care, but you broke my tooth! I didn't think you would punch me."

The security footage video abruptly ended after this.
