Jones Jr. shared the heartbreaking news on Instagram, expressing his gratitude for spending the final evening of DeAndre’s life together. “Unfortunately, my son DeAndre took his life Saturday,” Jones wrote. “I’m so thankful that God allowed me to come home Friday night to spend the last night of his life with me and the family.”
Jones emphasized the importance of valuing life: “I know a lot of people are going through tough times right now, but nothing is worth taking your own life. God gives it and God should be the one to take it away.”
He requested privacy during this difficult time, thanking everyone for their love and support. DeAndre, born on July 1, 1992, was the youngest of three children Jones shared with his wife Natlyn, alongside his brothers Roy III and DeShaun.
Authorities have yet to confirm details surrounding DeAndre’s death. Jones, a former four-weight world champion, is widely considered one of the greatest fighters in boxing history.

Manchester United legend Wayne Rooney has spoken about Portugal’s World Cup match, sharing his thoughts on how differently the game could have gone.
Rooney said the players kept passing the ball around instead of taking their chances to score. He added that having Cristiano Ronaldo on the pitch meant they should have made better use of him.
“When you are playing with Cristiano Ronaldo, you must make use of him. The ball could have been delivered into the box by Bruno, but he chose not to do so.”
“If you include him in the game, you need to utilize him; he remains a significant threat for Portugal during set pieces.”
