Time to praise. After returning to the news on police pages in the United States at the end of March, Jon Jones had a noble attitude and helped needy families who were in need during the coronavirus pandemic (Covid-19). The athlete donated 100.000 meals to people in upstate New Mexico. The information was released by the organization 'The Food Depot'.

“We are very grateful for the support of the UFC champion, Jon Jones. Today he made a donation that will provide 100.000 meals to families in northern New Mexico,” they posted on Twitter.

This is not Jones's first voluntary action towards the population of the state in which he resides. At the end of last year, the athlete released images in which he distributed supplies to people in need in the city of Albuquerque.

Known for his achievements inside and outside the Octagon, 'Bones' has been building his controversial career throughout his years as a professional in MMA. Unquestionable as a fighter, Jones has some troubles outside the octagon, ranging from failing an anti-doping test, cocaine consumption and drunk driving.

At 32 years old, the American has not been defeated in his career since December 2009, when he was disqualified after throwing illegal elbows at Matt Hamill. Since then, the fighter hasn't known what it's like to lose in sport.

We are so grateful for the support of New Mexico's own @ufc champion Jon Jones. @JonnyBones made a donation today that will provide 100,000 meals for families in northern New Mexico! #COVID19Response #FeedNNM #ManyThanks #NewMexicoTrue pic.twitter.com/yXV3H8DsUM
