Jones, who has since pleaded guilty to a DWI, has taken to Twitter to respond to some fan criticism, stating that his character gets too drunk while drinking and that the champion would rather focus on his good traits.
Yes, I guess my character gets too drunk when he drinks. I’m not going to allow that to outweigh all the awesome things about myself. Some people only focus on what they want I guess. I focus on my good traits, that’s probably the reason why I thrive every year https://t.co/2z6R8ebz42
