All UFC PPV cards nowadays should be this stacked with talent.. With the UFC's roster theres no reason why all cards cant be like this. Sick of seeing a bunch of cans fight in the UFC, we need better match ups and this is definitely a step in the right direction.

Hearing lots of rumors (from questionable sources) that Jon Jones is out of UFC 187 due to unspecified legal problems,  We'll see.

It is only a misdemeanor to walk away from the scene of a crime?

Who saying it only a misdemeanor? 

Because leaving the scene of an accident is a criminal offense. I have a buddy who go pretty screwed doing just that. Though in his accident, he was the only one involved. I assuming hitting another person and leaving the scene would be consider much worse.

That's a felony hit and run, possibly assault with a deadly weapon, reckless driving, negligent driving, driving while under the influence. That's about as much of a misdemeanor as **** is.

From MMAjunkie

 

"Sources informed MMAjunkie that the victim in the incident is pregnant, though her name and the stage of pregnancy have not been released. Police officers went to Jones’ house and attempted to contact his lawyer but have yet to hear from the fighter.

The crime is currently classified as a misdemeanor, but one witness places Jones at the scene. Police are still currently looking to get Jones’ side of the story, and no arrest warrant is currently planned to be issued. A summons will be issued, however, and Jones will have four weeks to show in court. Should he fail to appear in court, a warrant will be issued for his arrest."

 

i guess it is a misdemeanor until it proven he was at the scene.  However, how is it a misdemeanor if he was possbily not even there?  i am confused.

I think MMAjunkie just has no idea what there talking about. If you hit someone and leave the scene that a crime, It not a misdemeanor. My buddy hit a tree and left the scene of the accident and ended up being charged criminally.  So how on earth hitting another person and leaving the scene of an accident is only a misdemeanor, makes absolutely no sense.

I know in some jurisdictions that the difference between felony and misdemeanor hit-and-run has to do with the severity of injury to third-parties.  Maybe New Mexico is one of those states that follows this standard
