Jon Jones often displays a combination of speed and power that make him look more than human when he faces an opponent in the octagon. If he is actually already over his cocaine problem after one of the shortest rehab stints in history, maybe he really is a superhero.

According to TMZ, Jones has already left the rehab facility that he checked into about his drug problem. He spent a grand total of one night at the facility, according to his mother, Camille Jones. Jones tested positive for cocaine when he took his drug test leading up to his title bout with Daniel Cormier at UFC 182.
His mother also added that she is happy that he failed his drug test. "This stopped him in his tracks, this let him know that he may need to change some friends ... because everyone is not for you for the best," Camille said.

"Me and my husband considered [the positive test] a blessing from God that our child was able to be helped and know that he need to stop and know that he needed the assistance to stop before it came to something worse," she added.
According to Camille, Jon was hanging out with friends the night before he was tested, and he "did something he shouldn't have done."
"My first question was, do you have a problem, a serious problem?" said Camille. "And then he told me what happened. Jon is usually very honest with me, so he told me what happened. I was like, good for you ... good. You needed to be caught, it was just timing."
Although the exact reason why Jones left the rehab facility is unknown, his mother said he is planning to attend this weekend's Patriots-Colts AFC championship game. Arthur and Chandler Jones, both brothers of Jon, will be playing in the game on opposite teams, and Jon wants to be in attendance.
