JJ my favorite player involved in this?

Harsh words were exchanged between Mika Immonen and Jeremy Jones after their match on Table 2, which Mika won.
After a bad fluke by Mika he said "I guess we're even" in reference to another stroke of good luck by Jeremy.
Jones took exception and they had words soon after. This continued after the match. They almost took their argument outside.
Jones reportedly accused Immonen of being gay, calling him a F____t. I spoke to Jeremy and he did not retract this, saying that Mika "jumps the fence." He also said that Mika had no class because Jones, after luckily snookering Mika eralier after a missed, raised his hand in apology, while when Mika hit a lucky fluke he instead made his "I guess we're even" comment.
Supposedly the referee did not intervene in the argument sufficiently.
Mika also told afterwards that Jones once borrowed $700 from him and it took one and a half years to get paid, recounting how Jones tried to avoid Mika afterwards. He said "you can see what kind of guy he is." Mika told me he was only speaking to himself when he made the "now we're even comment." Immonen maintains that he allowed Jones to continue his outbursts and only said "are you done?" after each tirade.
This all happened an hour ago. I didnt see it but I spoke to eyewitnesses and spoke to both players.
In 4 years of WPC this is the most bizarre incident I've ever known to happen at this event.
Note-IS Mika saying "i guess we are even" really that big of a sin? Afterall, he is at the table -IM just not seeing that as something to be hung for. What do you think Cardinal sin or not?

Flaco went off on a tirade, comparing [the Fin] to Adolf Hitler. Mika has incredible self control during these disputes. In any case, Mika won the match, but it was closer in the beginning than the end.
