Stipe fight was already set before Asspiano got the hail mary against Pavlovich. sat out for a year after Blaydes tko yet he’s crying about Jon being injured? just because u like Tom doesn’t mean he gets privileges and you ignore the facts & start matchmaking fights bozo Jon Jones: lhw goat, arguably mma / ufc goat. double champ. youngest ufc champion. Tom Asspiano: TKO loss to Blaydes inside 1 minute of the very first round 👎🏼👎🏼😭. Pavlovich (zero ground game) fluke. fake belt not real (imaginary)
I’ve always said it. Interim belts are just marketing and gimmick belts they pull out of their ass whenever they need a title fight for a ppv or a champion takes time off for whatever reason. It’s probably less meaningful than the bmf belt at this point.
Jon Jones is holding up the division Stipe is 59 Aspinall has to defend the interim title Ciryl is French Shamil is fat We all make mistakes guys no one is perfect 🙏
The one who gets affected the most is Aspinall. Not only he isn’t given the opportunity to fight Jones, but at this point he also has no competition besides Pavlovich (who he defeated easily) and Blaydes. So no matter what he does, he will not be able to achieve much fame and status. Jon Jones could have saved the division but decided to duck a challenge and not have something memorable happening. But at this point MMA is mostly about smaller divisions as this is a more technical high paced sport where fans want to see variety instead of big guys throwing haymakers against each other
That was an injury. Did cruz fight him when he got back? Because Jones isn’t even doing that he still insists on stipe after he comes back from injury.
Jon wants to fight Alex because he knows that it would be easy work. Alex has gotten outwrestled any time it has been attempted (by strikers. He’s hasn’t fought an actual wrestler in his entire career). Jon doesn’t want to fight anyone who could possibly beat him. That’s why he wants to fight Stipe so bad.
I remember one defense of an interim belt. Renan Barao defended whilst Cruz was injured, Barao was later promoted to undisputed. Difference is that Cruz was injured and wasnt chasing fights against 41 year olds.
difference is , jones is a double champ and ufc goat youngest champion. and tom can’t even sell out his local bar. fake belt tko loss to blaydes 1 win streak 😭
@@beaualoevvJones is the GOAT, I fully agree with you. But the division shouldn't stand still whilst he chases a fight with a guy who hasn't won a fight in nearly 4 years. I love Stipe but it just isn't right. Jones Vs Aspinall should have always been the next fight.
As far as he can be believed, Uncle Chael pointed out something potentially terrible for Tom, that being that as soon as Jones steps into the cage against Stipe, it would mean the legally official return of the undisputed champ, rendering the interim title mute. If that is all correct, this means the following: 1. It's all over for Tom - like he didn't achieve anything, and now he has to try begging for a fight for the title again. 2. The UFC ignore that completely and pray that Jones (or Stipe, if he pulls it off, god forbid) retires right after this fight, allowing them to promote Tom to undispited. 3. Jones wins, wants to fight Alex next, UFC strips him by some miracle 4. Jones wins and wants to fight Alex, they try to force him out with bad negotiations 5. Jones wins, wants to fight Alex next, UFC choose greed before some sort of integrity and make it happen, continuing to ignore Tom, basically creating two divisions - the actual heavyweight division and the 'whoever-Bony-feels-like-fighting' division, we stay in limbo
I feel like those rules exist bc they never accounted for something like this. Usually the interim fights the champ when they return so it makes sense to make the interim mute since they fighting for the actual title. I feel like the ufc will keep Tom as interim since this is a special case
Has number 5 already happened in boxing? Is that why they are 4-8 belts champions in every weight class, and they rarely fight all of them undefeated and never fight each other
@@JanekTadeuszek kind of, there’s 17 weight classes and 4 belts for each class so it’s really easy to duck even if u wanna become undisputed and people will usually leave the division once they become undisputed
Then Jon gets a rematch then they do a rubber match and it ends in a no contest due to an eye poke so they do the Fourth fight 🤢🤮 we're looking at 2028 or 2029 ladies and gentlemen. I am not even kidding, this is a possibility.
Gane aint a fighter. He wants to look pretty and make money. He could be the best but I don't think he has the dedication or commitment to. And this isnt complete conjecture, he has openly on the record stated how he cant be bothered to learn to grapple. It's literally the most French thing ever
This is why Tom Aspinall is our heavyweight lord and saviour, man will fight anyone anywhere, he’ll take a fight on two weeks notice with a dodgy back against the scariest guy in the division while Gane sits on the couch demanding title shots he hasn’t earned. UFC need to strip Jon and give the title to the true peoples champ Tom Aspinall

big guys who made sport are rare in planet and they can play Basketball, NFL, Hockey, Boxing it's hard to get an A level athlete who is 6'1+ especially with the UFC garbage pay day.
@sebastiansanchez375 Fair enough. The reason I brought it up was TJ saying that no interim champ had ever defended the belt. I feel like people forget about Barao. He was a great fighter, yet he rarely gets talked about when people bring up the best banthamweights. I really hope the same doesn't happen for Tom
I think someone like Bones has earned the right to only want to do legacy and big money fights the man has been the best since I was in 9th grade I’m now 26 he has nothing left to prove and any fight he has is really just putting his legacy on the line for the sake of the sport he don’t owe us or Aspinall
This whole situation with the interim belt sets a really bad precedent, why should any future champion fight against the interim champion, now all division can be stalled.
Aspinall could be champ right now at 31, that’s not even old for other divisions for Heavyweight he could arguably still get better with age. I understand why Jones doesn’t want to fight him but if Tom beats Blaydes and Jones beats Stipe, it’s gotta be Tom or he’s stripped of the belt.
Heavyweight is the second worst division in UFC right now only because women’s bantamweight is the only division with even less skill, technique, prospects, interesting contenders and somehow a worse champ than Jon. The past WBW title fight looked like Dana grabbed Karen from Walmart and Sara from target then offered to buy the winners groceries.
Jon Jones won the belt from Gane? Gane never had the belt, wtf are you talking about... Jon isnt the Champ, we have two interim Champ, or Tom Aspinal is the Champ. simple as.
Jon Jones is unquestionably one of the most skilled fighters, nearly indisputably the most skilled, to ever step into the Octagon. His skills end there, though. His social skills are atrocious, he has no self control outside the octagon (and training), and his ability to manage what legacy he has left is questionable at best. A year ago, we all thought Jones was amazing, he went right through Gane and we were all wondering who he'd fight next. Now, he's a laughingstock. It's bizarre. He's got a really good chance of beating anyone in the heavyweight division. He could've taken the Aspinall fight 6 months ago, beaten Aspinall (I love Aspinall, but I'd bet on Jones in that one), THEN fight Miocic to sail off into the sunset and we all would've been satisfied. Instead, even after this Miocic fight, he's likely to walk away from the sport leaving a bad taste in our mouths. All of his horrible bullshit outside of the octagon made his legacy tarnished at best, but at least he could always claim to have taken on anyone worthy of a shot at his belt. He can't anymore.
Barao only defended cause Cruz tore his ACL twice and was out for 2 years Arlovski was promoted after Mir was deemed unable to fight. Jon is able to fight hes just refusing to fight Aspinall for a 42 year old retired firefighter
Gane is probably terrified of Blaydes. Blaydes is a decent striker so he wouldn’t be able to dominate him striking and Blaydes is a great wrestler. If Blaydes got Gane down, Gane would be fucked. Blaydes biggest weakness is his chin which is why he lost to Sergei, Lewis and Francis. But Gabe doesn’t have that crazy power so he would be in troubl

Real, what's the point of the interim belt if undisputed champ fights another guy,Jon would rather with both Stipe and Alex then Tom
That’s how a legitimate organization works. However, the UFC isn’t a legitimate sports organization.
