However, it seems that an old enemy of Jones has shown up again before his next title defense, with that enemy being former coach Frank Lester. Lester has previously accused Jones of not paying him $13,000 for helping Jones in his title defense at UFC 239, which is something that Jones has denied.
Lester has returned to Instagram with a whole new set of accusations against Jones, with the biggest of them being that Jones allegedly had Greg Jackson?s girlfriend, who works with the Albuquerque Police Department, had the police allegedly check out Lester for allegedly threatening to shoot Jones.
The former coach posted the following on Instagram:
Jones has yet to respond to the latest claims made by Lester and it is unknown when the potential response could come.
