Records indicate he requested a password reset for his UFC TV account just months before his arrest, demonstrating his continued engagement with the sport during his final months as a free man.<\/p>\n<p>The files reveal details about Epstein&#8217;s entertainment preferences during the period leading up to his legal troubles, with UFC programming apparently among his regular viewing choices.<\/p>\n<p>Jones, who has no known personal connection to Epstein beyond being featured in fights that Epstein watched, continues his MMA career as one of the sport&#8217;s most accomplished fighters. <\/p>\n<p>The revelation offers an unusual glimpse into how Epstein spent his time before his arrest, with UFC fights apparently serving as part of his regular entertainment routine.<\/p>\n<p>The documents make no suggestion of any interaction or relationship between Jones and Epstein. The mention of his name in the files appears solely related to Epstein&#8217;s consumption of publicly available UFC content.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Jon Jones&#8216; name has appeared in connection to the recently released Jeffrey Epstein files, though the link stems&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":468580,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[444],"tags":[49,48,641,1866,638,82],"class_list":["post-468579","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-mma","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-fighting","tag-jon-jones","tag-mma","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/468579","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=468579"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/468579\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/468580"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=468579"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=468579"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=468579"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
