However, Jones has offered an insider’s perspective – defending Zuckerberg’s actions:
Basically Zuckerberg’s experience in the corner was what I do every single time I’m in the corner.
Except all eyes are on Zuckerberg.I’ve had so many messages about what Zuck’s like, all these questions what my experiences were like with him.
All I’ll say is – fu*king super nice guy.We shook hands four times, not one of those was a smooth operation on either front.
Jones argued that the famous CEO appeared “more normal” in person than many would expect:
I’ll say that he’s probably as socially awkward as your average blue belt in a Jiu-Jitsu gym, maybe even less.
Like, I think people see some of the sh*t that happens to him on TV and they think: “Oh, he’s going to be a super awkward guy.”
But I mean, if your expectations are that level of autism, when you meet him in person he’s actually he’s actually pretty fu*king normal.
