Jones' wild first pitch at MLB game
Light heavyweight champion Jon Jones popped into Thursday night's Blue Jays vs. Yankees game in Toronto just days before taking on Alexander Gustafsson at UFC 165.
Jones was given the honor of throwing out the first pitch and, unlike this tiny Korean girl who throws heaters, was unable to muster up a respectable throw.
Now, Jones didn't exactly join the ranks of Carly Rae Jepsen or Tiffany Hwang as the worst of the worst, but we expected a little more from a guy who comes from a family of athletic freaks.
To recclaim his manhood and restore dignity to the mound, Jones went on the offensive and challenged the Jays mascot to a duel.

After that, Jon got to meet none other than Yankees superstar Alex Rodriguez. Not a bad recovery for Jones, eh?
Quick recap: Jon Jones throws out terrible first pitch. Jon Jones challenges mascot to fight. Jon Jones gets to hang out with A-Rod. Yeah, Jones probably isn't too upset about that bad pitch.
Moral of the story, don't quit your day job 'Bones'.
