Jones is wasting Tom's prime. Tom could've defended the belt like 5 times by now but nope, gotta wait for Jones to stop being gay.

[@johnchhu3914]

If that is the case then I can see why because Jones doesn't like him and I understand why. Tom's cocky and tried to alpha him in the meeting where Tom put his hand on his Jones' shoulder to see if Jones submit to it, but of course Jones man enough to know that ain't gonna happen. Tom's done that to many of his recent fights and imo it's a bitch move and is weird to watch him do. I don't like it. So I can respect Jones for not wanting to be a payday for Aspinal while throwing away a lot more money for himself from the fight. I'd do the same thing in his situation. And that's the perfect setup for "FUCK YOU" money, pay me 100 mill and tom gets like 5mil. That's fuck you money if you want me to fight Tom.

Dana has done part of the work of building up tom Vs Jon to be bigger than it would be if they had done it now or a few months ago. The bigger they are the bigger they fall and they know how good tom is. They must also be confident that either Jon wants to fight tom, (as Tom said just after 309 on Ariels show) or that they can make the fight happen with whatever financial incentive is needed. Why else would they wax lyrical about Jon so much only for him to retire and not set up he future if the division? They heavyweight division is in a good spot and the UFC matchmakers are not dumb, they used stipe and they will use Jon for the future of the division.

[@theWayoftheHero]

People are being brainwashed into thinking numbers equal greatness. Jon did have many great wins. On paper his record is the best. But he also had some very unimpressive wins. There's the failed drug tests. He very arguably lost to Reyes. Towards the later stage of his career he started doing what Adesanya did, fighting strictly to not lose, instead of definitively trying to win, which became tedious point fighting and stalling as much as possible. But for Jon, his latest statements towards Aspinall have really dug the grave for his already questionable legacy. It is so apparent he is afraid of losing. That is not a mark of the greatest. There's no bravery and courage in picking a fight you really think you're going to win. Strip him and move the division forward. He can retire and keep his ego protected on his own time.

Beating pereira would mean he beat 2 double champs in his career, that’s a way bigger deal than beating Aspinal despite him being the harder opponent.

The bias against Jon Jones is blatantly clear. Jon wants to walk away from the sport with a win, what’s wrong with that? Nothing. There’s nothing wrong with an older fighter picking their battles. When our favorite fighters fight past their prime, we wish they’d retire or walk away after 1 or 2 more fights. Not Jon Jones😂 He’s an awful person outside of the octagon so he needs to keep fighting until he’s loses badly, that way he’s a gay, wife beating, cheater, who isn’t undefeated… I get it, I do, from a subjective standpoint.

[@khadijahhair9108]

It’s funny because when Jones called out Stipe , he said AND I QUOTE “If there’s anything I know about the ufc , we give the people what they want” … yet he won’t give us the fight with Tom 😂

I mean he's lost at least once but the Tom fight will be life changing an he will never ever ever be spoken about in the goat conversation again

[@BiggieTrismegistus]

For me personally it wouldn't hurt his legacy at all to lose to Aspinall. Jones is up a weight division and is getting older. Losing to a younger guy at the tail end of your career is something that happens to a lot of fighters.

[@PcCAvioN]

​@@BiggieTrismegistus the problem is perception. You're only as good as your last fight in the eyes of many. Also so many fighters get respect despite their Ls because they are babyfaces while Jon is a heel.

Jon is still the goat weather he won or lost to Tom.

[@y2jayden]

Maybe Jones finally deleted those "secret" pictures of Dana White and now Dana has regained his confidence and is starting a movement against Jones

[@kasimahmed8858]

Dana isn't dumb. I've said this before and I still haven't seen this take anywhere else, I think there is a strong possibility that Dana has been praising jon Jones so much these last months because he wants to see tom beat Jon and take that spot. Again Dana isn't dumb, and he knows the sport always needs a future and they need to set up their next fighters. I'm only convinced of this more after tom has said he met with matchmakers and implied it's going well and that's heas ready. Dana has done part of the work of building up tom Vs Jon to be bigger than it would be if they had done it now or a few months ago. The bigger they are the bigger they fall and they know how good tom is. They must also be confident that either Jon wants to fight tom, (as Tom said just after 309 on Ariels show) or that they can make the fight happen with whatever financial incentive is needed. Why else would they wax lyrical about Jon so much only for him to retire and not set up he future if the division? They heavyweight division is in a good spot and the UFC matchmakers are not dumb, they used stipe and they will use Jon for the future of the division. The surprising part is that nobody else seems to realise all this. P.s. John isn't dumb either, he was sandbagging against stipe to keep a trick up his sleeve for when he fights tom. His ego is too big to not want to fight tom.

[@y2jayden]

@@kasimahmed8858 I came up with a good theory. Dana initially was glazing Jones because he wanted him to beat Stipe since Ngannou beat Stipe (HW Goat) and left to PFL, now we can't be having the HW goat in another promotion so we need someone else to beat Stipe. Dana now realized that Tom is also a big star and has massive potential and an easy path to becoming the HW Goat. That is Jones vs Aspinall, regardless of the outcome of this fight it would mean that the definite HW goat is in the UFC and nothing Ngannou does in the PFL will out do this. Jones retiring means that it will be more difficult for Aspinall to be called the HW Goat as he needs to be more HW Contenders and also there is not much competition rn. Dana also opposes the Pereira vs Jones fight so much because Jones would just beat Pereira and retire and that doesn't help HW goat status at all, and UFC would be having their biggest star (Alex) lose. If Alex beats Jones then that also does nothing because that doesn't do anything for HW Goat status either. That is why Tom vs Jones is the easiest way to overshadow Ngannou's career and potential HW goat status.

[@kasimahmed8858]

Fair point about Francis, I hadn't thought of that but makes a lot of sense. Yeah that all makes sense lol good theory I don't see why both can't have some truth. About the future of the division Dana has had harsh words for Francis and said Jon Vs Tom WILL be the biggest heavyweight fight ever. It's a bit like if Alex or ilia left rn to go to bellator or pfl. Dana's business priority would be to make sure the top of the top of those respective divisions is considered better than they the guys that left. My main reasoning behind thinking Dana wants tom to win is the future of the division. He was pissed at gsp for coming back and then not defending the belt that he won again. But I suppose overall, for Dana and co, it's more important that the top of the heavyweight division is considered better than Francis, that it would be important to set up the future of the division. Both matters but being clearly better than your promotion/business competition matters much more. Maybe especially since it's the the heavyweight division?​@@y2jayden

[@y2jayden]

@@kasimahmed8858oh yeah I think I misread your point because you said Dana wants Tom to beat Jones and take that spot when really I think he just wants that fight to be made. Because he knows Ngannou left as the champ and will most likely go undefeated in the PFL which although he is beating bums, people will question if he could’ve been the HW Goat. So it’s basically a race between Ngannou and the UFC. And yeah I agree especially because it’s the heavyweight division because tbh it isn’t as hard to create a HW Goat out of either Jones or Tom right now since both would probably wipe the entire HW Rankings and easier to surpass Stipe. Whereas back then in HW they didn’t have fighters on the caliber of Aspinall, and instead had fighters who could KO everyone and get KO’d by everyone in the HW division.

When Aspinall becomes HW champion Dana will make Aspinall vs Ngannou happen. He KNOWS Tom is the only chance he has to win against Francis and thats why he let this all play out. He KNOWS Tom will become HW champ, either Jones fights Tom (which Dana KNOWS he wont) or he gets stripped of the title. Dana wants to establish the dominance of the UFC and by PFL and UFC putting their biggest boys against each other it would be the perfect double hit for Dana. We all know Francis would KILL Jon.

Jon went on a twitter rant and told the ufc to release him because they wouldn't pay him 30 million to fight Ngannou 😂 Jon had said "I'm not fighting that guy for 8-10 million it's not enough for a fight of that magnitude" those were his words. He priced himself out of the fight on purpose. So Ngannou left then literally the next day Jon signed a contract to fight Gane for around 6-7 million... but that apparently wasn't enough when it was Ngannous name on the contract. He ducked Ngannou big time. Now he's ducking Aspinall. Dana must strip Jon !!!

[@NeerMMA]

Dana white’s massive Brain 🧠 Move: Promote Jones as the P4P best fighter and dont make him fight Aspinall who clearly deserves a title shot. Doesn’t want to risk his next future star losing to jones so he plays it safe promoting jones and Aspinall at the same time.
