- UFC. Tom Aspinall chooses his MMA Mount Rushmore: Where does he place Jon Jones?
- UFC. Jon Jones and Tom Aspinall just crossed a new line in their UFC heavyweight rivalry
Jon Jones suffered an injury right before he was about to defend the UFC HEavyweight title he won against Ciryl Gane. After completely demolishing the Light Heavyweight division, Jones took a long hiatus before returning to the heaviest division. He did it in style but that injury prevented him from fighting the greatest Heavyweight of all time. In the mean time, UFC CEO Dana White has been proping up Jones at every chance he gets and marketing him as the greatest ever. Although that is a debate that has MMA fans divided because there are a few more names that could also be considered the GOAT. Regardless of this, Jones doesn't forget the and he just wrote this for Dana: "You put Dana White in a business meeting with any man on this f*cking planet, there's only one man coming out on top. Real recognize real."
Jon Jones is already preparing to fight Stipe
Amid this Instagram praise from Jones to Dana, the champ also showed a video on his social media where he is watching both Stipe Miocic and Francis Ngannou fight each other. Simultaneously, he is getting ready to fight both Stipe Miocic and Francis Ngannou if the opportunity for a crossover event presents itself. Jones was inside one of his cars watching this fight and shared it on social media. The fight between these two is supposed to take place before the end of the year. Jon Jones has revealed he is getting closer to fighting shape and he already walks around at 245 pounds.
During back and forths with some of his followers, Jon Jones responded to both ers and haters who follow him. the general consensus is that Jon Jones needs to fight the interim heavyweight champion at some point. That man is Tom Aspinall but he won't get his chance until after Jon fights Stipe. Simply by looking at this video shared by Jones, it seems his return to the octagon is getting closer. It is still unclear if Tom Aspinall will keep defending his interim title before he gets a chance to fight Jones or Stipe but those two heavy trains will inevitably collide at some point.
