Jon Jones PSA Video on Motorboating: Takes a Shot at Rampage Jackson

UFC Light Heavyweight Champion Jon “Bones” Jones took some time out of his busy schedule to deliver the UFC fans some very important information. Specifically, Jones wanted to discuss the suddenly controversial “motorboating” phenomenon sparked by Quinton “Rampage” Jackson’s post-UFC 130 interview with MMA Heat’s Karyn Bryant.

Jackson is known for his often inappropriate and sometimes borderline offensive interactions with reporters, but he took it in a direction that was weird even for him that night when he tried to replicate a Vince Vaughn line from the movie Wedding Crashers.

Various members of the media have called for Jackson to be suspended, fined or even released by the UFC, but that has not happened, nor is it likely to happen.

For those wondering, Karyn Bryant, the woman on the receiving end of the controversial video, expressed that she thought it was funny and that she was not offended.

But the freshly crowned UFC light heavyweight champion was not so quick to let his potential next opponent off the hook. Jones responded to the Jackson video with this video of his own, where he explains the intricacies of the motorboat: where it is appropriate, where it is not and where exactly it was that Rampage went wrong.

“Come on, son,” Jones repeated twice in the video.

If Jackson thought Ariel Helwani’s comments were offensive, it will be interesting to see how he responds to the 22-year-old Jones calling him “son.”
