We can forgive that.
Secondly, Jon Jones is easy to like even when he's a little bit of a jerk to some of his opponents, but Conor is quickly turning into an unlikable asshole, and its a really bad look to charge in with his own personal ****ing gang. This isn't like a "heel" which you can sell, a lot of people who otherwise may have been potential fans are simply not going to be interested in watching him fight anymore, and its bad enough to potentially do damage to the UFC brand.

Jon jones hit and ran from a car accident with a pregnant lady. It doesnt matter about the intent - thats a scum bag move that could have been much worse.
