Jon Jones News: Twitter explodes as former UFC Light Heavyweight Champion tests positive for banned substance 

It's all happening right now. Traces of a banned substance were found in Jon Jones' bloodstream and as a result, UFC 232 is moving from Las Vegas to Inglewood, California.

Nevada did not license Jones because he tested positive, but it is expected that California just might. Here is what the Twitterati had to say about the situation:

''Jon Jones will never headline a card again'' - Dana White, 2016.''We're going to move an entire PPV to a different state on six days notice so Jon can headline this card'' - Dana White, 2018.

Jones would not stay quiet either. He had the following to say:

I’m focused on achieving my ultimate goal of reclaiming my Light Heavyweight title. I have willingly submitted to every USADA test in the lead up to this fight and USADA has confirmed what I've been saying all along, that I'm a clean athlete. I sincerely thank the California

State Athletic Commission and Andy Foster for doing the right thing and supporting me through this process. I cannot wait to fight Alex Gustafsson this Saturday December 29th at the Los Angeles Forum in Inglewood.

Jones even sent out an official, formal message on Instagram, detailing the whole situation. He mentioned how the whole thing was outside his control:

Twitter users were pretty merciless about the whole situation. They did post some really savage Tweets about the situation at hand:
