Why Tom Aspinall Destroys Jon Jones

I don’t get how Dana will let Jon ruin his legacy by being complicit in letting him dodge this fight with Tom.

[@angelfrancisco8256]

Because there will always be new contenders coming. If he beats Tom another contender will come up. So while it may seem like him beating stipe it's not that great of an accomplishment. That accomplishment will matter to him because in his prime stipe was the heavyweight goat

[@Sleeepy23]

How is he ducking Tom if he's injured and he was gonna fight Stipe before Aspinall even fought Pavlovich

[@faboolean7039]

@@Sleeepy23 Jon either fights stipe whilst vacating the title or fights the interim champ as soon as possible after recovering. Fighting the interim champ should by default always be the next fight. Jon is clearly avoiding this because he’s less confident about winning against Tom compared to winning against stipe. He’s clearly dodging this fight. This is also assuming jones won’t retire after a fight with stipe. There is a possibility that jones will finish his career after fighting stipe and he will never give Tom the chance to fight him. It looks like jones is doing a fair bit of work to avoid a fight that should be the number one priority.

Jon Jones (and the UFC) is avoiding the number one contender and literal interim champ in Tom Aspinall, for essentially an exhibition match with an old Stipe to solidfy "goat status". GFY. Vacant or fight Aspinall.

[@Sleeepy23]

Jon Jones was already supposed to fight Stipe before Tom Aspinall became #1 contender

[@danyo6938]

@@Sleeepy23 Jones' recent injury aside, the proposed fight didn't seem logical from the start. Stipe Miocic, regarded as the heavyweight GOAT, hasn't been as active recently, with his last fight against Ngannou in 2021 and one in 2020. Despite his status, it’s visually clear he's past his prime and shouldn’t be in title contention. The UFC is clearly feeding Miocic to Jones to potentially diminish the standing of the true undisputed heavyweight champion, Francis Ngannou.

[@Sleeepy23]

I agree that Ngannou really feels like the real champion. What really should've happened was Jones vs Ngannou. After that Aspinall would've earned a title shot so it could be Aspinall vs the winner of Jones vs Ngannou. But since Ngannou left, Jones won the belt. Then he had the right to call out Stipe if he wants. That's just how it goes. It's all messed up but it's not Jon Jones fault. It's a combination of different factors.

​@Sleeepy23 a) he wont, jones will retire after stipe b) like makhachev, if you're the champion, the number one in the div, you can beat anybody in there, why would you duck a challenger. c) interim champ should mean something. And we all know what it means, so why is Jones avoiding it?

[@marijanpetricevic6227]

Ngannou barely defended a belt once. After that he went full diva-mode and asked way too much. He's a roided company product pushed by every MMA access media journo rats.

[@frisk151]

Aspinal isn't a king without a crown.. He is a King who literally doesn't need a "crown"... Just because the UFC and obviously Jones don't want to touch this fight currently, doesn't change the fact of what Aspinal has faced vs what Jones has faced in the HW cage.. That belt or "crown" WILL be Aspinal's sooner or later.. The question is simply does Jon have the sack and nerve to get into the cage with him... Likely not.. He WILL lose against Tom... He's going to retire before Tom gets a chance to steal his soul and some of his legend..

Dude hasn't done shit

Except win a belt

@@champ1159 beat an overrated stiff Russian? You learned of this dude last year and already on his nuts.

[@cloudripper4096]

​@@BL77357 But he still has a belt and if we're talking about who they fought than Jones win against gane is far less impressive

The real face and supreme HW champion of the world. More promotion for the Heavyweight div. Bring back the motto of " GO BIG OR GO HOME "

[@Obi-WanKannabis]

Can heavyweight class get a fucking break? First we got robbed of Fedor vs Cain. We got robbed of Jones vs Ngannou, and now Jones vs Aspinall. This class is cursed in MMA.

[@StewH08]

First great vid.As someone who's only just got into watching mma i have come to the conclusion that you've gotta be a few sandwiches short of a picnic to even considor doing this for a living,but i am getting addicted to watching.❤

[@LeoCooperMMA]

Thats the plan Stew! Thanks for the love

[@judethompson2071]

We’ve never had to question what fight is next for a champ when an interim champ comes along. But now we have to wonder is stipe Jones going to happen or does aspinall actually get his rightful shot

[@Tiredsquirrel10]

11:56 did he say “The Russian Fedor”??? 😂

[@ashr8327]

Fantastic video lad, well made and well written 🍻

[@akhilpremkumar7557]

Jon smokes 🚬 Assspinal

[@FediMayn]

Aspi lost 3 times according to public records lol.. Jones never lost beside the fact of the illegal elbows.

[@EvilestGem]

Tom is an absolute gentleman. Hope he wins the lot!

[@realgoodmind]

Great edit!

[@KimchiFarts]

At this point, Dana is hurting the UFC more than helping. At least when talking about matchmaking

[@GamesWithBrainz]

11:58 did joe say sergei is the russian fedor??? Fedor is the russian fedor

[@rockman469]

Let’s see how long he’s gonna hold that Belt

every one of your videos is so good, including this one. I hope that you have a great weekend, Leo

[@LeoCooperMMA]

Thank you for your continued support Sapper. Hope yours is just as good my friend.

[@bradleylove8606]

how did Tom get to be interim champ? Did Jones give it up? I knew Jones was afraid to face him but didn't know this had happened.

“The Russian Fedor” -Dr. Joe

Yeah I had to double take that fr 😂??

[@raulcarrasco6598]

Sick video

[@PanHaszaman]

Tom is too FUCKING nice!!! I love how respectful he is, don't get me wrong! He's like the oldschool type of champion in the modern era of shit talkers, which I said many times I miss the most from the old days, but that DOESN'T FUCKING SELL! End of story!
