Darren Till recently made headlines when a picture did the rounds showing him posing alongside alleged Kinahan Cartel leader Daniel Kinahan.

Till is managed by MTK Global which was initially co-founded by Kinahan. Following their rebrand in 2017, the company later announced that it severed ties with Kinahan.

However, many remain doubtful as to whether that is the case and Kinahan’s involvement was made more evident when he recently posed alongside Till and MTK’s Bahrain brand ambassador Mohamed Bin Mansoor Al Arayedh.

News media quickly picked up the story that Till had ties with Kinahan. But rather than deny it, “The Gorilla” admitted he had a friendship with Kinahan as he blasted the media for making a news story out of it.

“Yes I am friends with Daniel Kinahan… & what? I’ve never hidden his friendship & why should I when the man has given me more valuable advice as a friend than anyone I’ve ever met in a professional capacity. I’ve been friend with Dan for years & years long before I ever joined MTK Global so why would it automatically be presumed the two are linked.

“There are thousands of people dying all over the world right now, people losing they’re jobs & struggling to keep a roof over their heads & put food on the table & this is NEWS?!! These journalists who are harassing me right now for a statement & writing lies & hated in an effort to make this news need to take a long hard look at themselves & ask what they are really contributing to the world. I won’t be commenting on this sh*t anymore, instead I’ll focus on more important things! I.e keeping my loved ones safe! #TheSunLie #Slander #Rats”

Regardless of how Till feels about Kinahan, the latter’s father Christy is the alleged founder of the cartel which is reportedly the biggest supplier of illegal drugs in Ireland.

Jones Covington

It wouldn’t be a Jon Jones news story without having Colby Covington react to it.

It was reported that Jones had been arrested in the early hours of Thursday morning by Albuquerque Police for aggravated DWI as well as negligent use of a firearm.

Although “Bones” has already been released from custody, it is just another incident to be added to his long list of infractions. By now, even the most die-hard Jones fans have become accustomed to him having problems with the law as it appears he will never learn from his mistakes.

And Covington used the news to mock Jones and bring some humor to what is currently a stressful time in the world given the coronavirus pandemic.

“See, there’s no need to panic,” Covington tweeted soon after MMA Fighting’s tweet. “The world’s still perfectly normal.”

Jones and Covington were notably former roommates in college and haven’t seen eye-to-eye in recent years. The duo — particularly Covington — have regularly taken shots at each other on social media as well.

And going by this latest interaction, it doesn’t appear to be ending any time soon. Although unlikely, it should be interesting to see if Jones offers a response.

Jon Jones arrested

UFC light-heavyweight champion Jon Jones was arrested last night for driving while intoxicated and negligent use of a firearm.

According to the arrest records obtained by MMAFighting, the 205lb great was picked up in Albuquerque, New Mexico, just after 1 am local time. Per the booking information, the 32-year-old has already been released from custody.

Local law enforcement had been responding to a report of gunshots when they found Jones in the driver’s seat of his vehicle. He claimed to know nothing about any gunfire but did admit to driving his car despite appearing to be intoxicated.

This prompted the officers at the scene to conduct sobriety tests on the UFC superstar – he preformed poorly in them all. Later he took a breathalyzer and blew twice the legal limit.

As you can see from the above image Jones was ultimately brought in on charges of DWI (driving while intoxicated), negligent use of a firearm, possession of an open container, and driving with no proof of insurance. This was after a black handgun, and a bottle of Recuerdo was found behind the passenger’s seat.

Gilbert Gallegos, communications director for the Albuquerque Police, said of the arrest. “As part of the investigation into this incident, our Gun Violence Reduction Unit will test the firearm and bullet casing to determine whether the gun has been used in any crimes Reducing gun violence in Albuquerque is our top priority.”

Unfortunately, this is not the first time the UFC champion has found himself on the wrong side of the law.

Back in 2012, Jones was arrested for driving under the influence. He had crashed his car into a pole in New York. Ultimately, he pled guilty to DUI charges, was handed a fine, and had his driver’s license suspended for six months.

Three years later, Jones was involved in a hit-and-run incident in Albuquerque after he ran a red light and smashed into two vehicles before fleeing the scene. A warrant was issued for his arrest, and Jones later turned himself in, pled guilty, and received 18 months of supervised probation.
