Vegas Confidential learned the incident took place near the table of UFC champ George St. Pierre at Surrender nightclub at Encore. Jones and former champ Tito Ortiz had a table next to St. Pierre's.
St. Pierre ordered Jones and Evans, former friends who trained together, to take it elsewhere before things got ugly.
Jones and Evans, who have been having words of late, walked away to hash out their differences.
Tension between them has been escalating since Jones said he would consider fighting Evans, if UFC president Dana White wanted the superstar matchup
Evans had taken the position they wouldn't fight each other because the friendship came first.
About 400 UFC fighters are in town for a UFC convention at Red Rock Resort.
