Fr, if he agreed to fight him, tried his best, went in there and made it a war, even if he still lost that'd still put him in the running for top 5 to ever do it. Whereas if he just ducks and fades out, that'd be way more damaging to his precious legacy.
Aspinall became INTERIM CHAMPION by destroying active heavyweights ranked 3rd, 4th, 5th ,7th, 8th in their prime, not a retired old man who hasn't been in the ring for 3.5 years.
@@SRT_DRE they're all long out of their prime and retired. he beat Arlovski, but that's not an achievement, it just looks good on his record. most of the current top 10 would manage that, that's why they're the CURRENT top 10. there IS a current DISPUTED champion that Tom can and MUST face by the rules of ANY fighting organisation and that is Jon
@@SRT_DRE btw, how many HEAVYWEIGHT champions has Jones fought? only ONE, retired old man Stipe who hasn't trained for over 3 years. how many HEAVYWEIGHT fights has Jones fought? only 2. he's one of the most incredible Light-Heavyweights ever, but what has he done to claim to be the best at HEAVYWEIGHT?
@ all that is irrelevant because Jon literally beat the Heavyweight Champion in a 2 minute fight. Almost put that boy to sleep. Aspinall still ducking Ciryl Gane, and all heavyweights should have to go through him to even mention Jon Jones. Aspinall beat a bunch of nobodies, and he would lose to the same Stipe that Jon Jones folded like a lawn chair. Aspinall hasn’t fought a single elite heavyweight. The heavyweight division was irrelevant before Jon Jones moved up in weight. It’s still irrelevant outside of Jon Jones. Your boy Aspinall has 3 losses on his record, I wouldn’t even entertain him if I’m undefeated like Jon. Aspinall has a long list of fighters he must go through to get to Jon, and I hope Jon never fights him just to hurt all you haters feelings.
@@SRT_DRE the only heavyweights Jon has beat were a kickboxer and a semi-retired old man. He waited until Francis was gone before moving up and is now trying to outprice the only heavyweight he fears.
I’m gonna give an explanation as to why Jon will lose to Aspinal if they ever fight: 1. Size. Jon is notorious for struggling against fighters who somewhat match him in size and reach. This is shown in his razor close decisions against Reyes and Gustafsson. He even went to decision with Anthony smith! Almost everyone Jon beat in his early career, was significantly smaller in statue, but later on into his career when he came across opponents similar sized, he found more of a challenge. 2. Style. If you go and rewatch Jon’s fights, he generally has an issue with boxer heavy styles. Biggest examples are Reyes and Gustafsson. Reason for this is Jon doesn’t really box. He clearly favoures elbows, teal kicks, oblique kicks and body and head kicks. I’m serious! Watch his fights and you’ll see he rarely boxes. When dealing with someone like Tom, who btw actually has an ameteur boxing record, he will struggle. 3. Ground game. This part of the argument is a bit weak I’ll be honest. Tom has been trained by his dad from a very young age in BJJ. It was his first ever martial art. Jon will not be able to cope against attempting to wrestle someone of Tom’s size, age and speed. I just don’t see it 4. Speed. Watch Jon’s fight against Cyril Gane. Specifically, watch his speed. It’s evident that Jon’s move up to heavyweight has had a toll on his speed (though that could also be his age too). The fastest moment he had in the fight was his shot into the takedown. Granted, we didn’t see too much of him fighting because the fight was so fast, but even from the short timeframe we did see, he’s clearly got slower. Compare this to Tom’s speed, and see for yourself. Pair this with the boxing I previously mentioned, and you’ll see the issue I’m pointing out. 5. Age. Jon has stated he is coming towards the end of his career. Despite being 37 (same age as Alex Pereira who has had an extensive kickboxing career btw) he believes he only has a couple fights left. Tom Aspinal is 31. Not only is he younger, but he’s hungrier. Jon’s halfway out the door, Tom has only just got in. The one thing that primarily sets Jon apart is his fight IQ. It always has. And Jon is intelligent enough (in a fighting sense) to know that if he fights Aspinal, he will lose. That’s why he’s ducking him. Behind all the tweets, behind all the chatter, he is scared of tarnishing his perfect record.
I'm not so convinced it's as clear cut as that, fighting never is, but I still agree with you totally in a sense that Jon is definitely ducking Tom. He's holding for the Stipe fight because he knows that Stipe is as good as finished. Stipe is approaching his mid 40's, and him and Francis practically retired each other in their last fight. Whereas Tom is everything you just described. Jon wants to go out with (what he believes to be) a practically guaranteed win. This is why I believe he's gonna go full narcissist and retire the second his fight with Stipe is over, if that fight ever happens. I really do hope Stipe wins against Jon, but more than that I hope Stipe retires first, and Jon is forced to fight Tom or give up the H.W title.
@@BWall-h4d Jones Signed a 6 fight contract at HW.... I'm not convinced that he's going to retire after Stipe... Is Jones truly had a retirement on his mind he would have signed a 2 fight contract. I'm also not convinced Tom is such a huge threat. Tom is a primarily a Boxer and Jones DOESN'T fight in Boxing Range so How the Hell Tom going to Catch Jones plus will Still have a big Reach advantage. Tom you have to change his style and add a lot of kicks to close the distance BUT that will leave him open for Takedowns. I don't care How good Tom is in BJJ, Nobody wants Jones on top of them...
I respect Rogan’s views, obviously, but Jones is getting old and has not been tested at heavyweight. Aspinall has grappled since age 7. Aspinall is bigger, stronger, faster, and he is the favorite to win against Jones.
@@emersonmilimerson2622 Aspinall only has 1 real loss early in his career by a sneaky leglock IN A FIGHT HE WAS WINNING (by ground and pound), aside from that it's a disqualification from a 12-6 elbow in a fight he was winning (just like Jones' loss), and a freak injury on his already damaged knee (and we all saw what happened when Tom was healthy vs Blaydes... 1 minute.) Jones literally lost 3 rounds to the BUM Reyes, Aspinall is better everywhere.
@@emersonmilimerson2622Jon Jones hasn’t fought like “Jon Jones” in since 2018. He looked very average against anthony smith (who has 20 losses) He looked terrible against thiago santos and domonik reyes and debatably lost both of those fights
Depends on Jones entirely. most of the time he has been literally having fun in the octagon. Jones' coaches tell him to "have fun" in the octagon. remember when jones said he'd "kill, not fight you" to DC. He is capable of FAR more than he's shown. but he truly would be aspinall despite aspinall's speed, power, and youth. Jon would immediately be aiming to damage aspinall's movement as a whole with a couple oblique kicks. after that aspinall is screwed. he'd have to knock jon out fast, which isn't likely because jon too is fast, even at heavy weight he isn't very likely to get knocked out. and we all know ground game is the number 1 in the ufc.
Hilarious to see all the Jones fans cope and try to make some pea brained argument for how he’d beat Tom. Tom is a stylistic nightmare for Jones, he is taller, naturally heavier, has great boxing, and good wrestling and BJJ so he can’t be bullied on the ground like Gane. Jones would not only lose this fight, he’d get dominated.
@xxsskyyxx Jon can't finish Smith in 5 rounds who has over 20 losses but is the "boogeyman" of a weight class 60lbs above where he has 1 fight submitting a white belt? Wow, scary 😨 So jones is basically middleweight Roman Dolidze on 1weeks notice going up a weight class? Meanwhile Tom is finishing ALL the top heavyweight contenders in the first round, average fight is 2mins in 9 fights, only loss in UFC is self inflicted injury. You could add every ufc fight he's ever had and add 5mins on top of that and it'd still be less octagon time than the JONES SMITH FIGHT. There isn't a singular soul who has stepped in the octagon with Tom and has not been KO'D or submitted by him, 3 in the top 5, 5 in the top 10. I could give you an entire grocery list of the guys jones couldn't finish. The UFC has never seen a more devastating finisher than Tom in its 30+ year history and its not even close. But yea Jon 🦆 Jones is the boogeyman because, uhhhhh uhhhg, durr durrr durrrr
@Benno919 been watching hours everyday since 2016 bud. Every fight night and paper view. Early prelims to main event. Your fight knowledge is from RUclips shorts and google. One submission in the past 12 years but you say he chokes out Tom easy. Why didnt he choke out Reyes, Thiago, OSP, Smith etc? I don't even have to ask if you train.
Sory but Cain never had that hand speed or ring iq just great wrestler with great cardio and solid boxing,Aspinal trained with Tyson Fury for years dude got elite hands and is faster then most MW
@@Bobbybouchet705 a fat out of shape Fury, that didn't take Francis "no head movement" Ngannou seriously, yes (he won regardless). Besides, the one time Tom lost, he was a beginner. The other two losses were because of his ACL injury mid fight and him landing illegal elbows. Cain had no submission game, or any hand speed whatsoever. He got finished by Werdum and Francis 😂
@@tempofugo168 dEadLy iSTiNct and FiGhT Iq stop spewing nonsense and actually watch Jons previous fights. Anyone bigger than Jon with grappling Jon has struggled against: Reyes should’ve won, Gustafsson arguably won. Aspinall has the traits of those other guys, but bigger and faster. Im not saying its a guaranteed win for Aspinall but Jones is the underdog here
Anyone else here expecting to hear some positive words about Gustafsson? How he performed in that fight will always be something to remember...atleast for me. Bringing up excuses won't change anything. He went in that octagone with Gustafsson and with that said...how he choosed to prepare is up to him.
Bollocks, Aspinall trains for the full 9 yards even though he finishes all opponents within the 1st. The fact that he smashes everyone in the 1st means he’s the real deal. Scrappers that go the distance are mediocre, I notice that you don’t say the same about early Mike Tyson😅
I am sure Tom would beat Jon in 2 rounds only. Jon knows how dangerous Tom is and that is why he is choosing the easy fight with Stipe. Tom finished all his opponents either by KO or submission while Jon won many fights by decision.
Lmao stop , yall casuals don’t even know why he’s fighting stipe .. maybe that fight was set up before Tom was ever in the picture . Just maybe. Blame Dana white for making Tom the interim champ while Jon already had a fight.. if Jon didn’t get injured , he would’ve been fought stipe many months ago
@@leftnutlarry24 I could see him saying that, that will get in Tom’s head and then it would build more money and attention Jon making Tom feel like “eh, not impressed”
So many fights have been temporarily avoided, for any number of reasons, then ultimately happened with a much larger purse than would've been paid out if it happened straight away. Yes Aspinal is a beast, and it probably wouldn't come as an extreme shock if he beat Jones... But tell me true, is anyone gonna be all that shocked if Jon beats Aspinal... I don't think so. ~ My prediction is Jon would damage Tom's legs/knees enough to take him down and choke him out; maybe not as quick and easy as he did with Stipe and Ciryl. Jones seems to've figured out how to finish big, tough, fast heavy weights.
The fact that Joe still talks about Jon like a casual who understands none of the history of his ped tests and pathetic performances is really upsetting tbh
@@UziuLK including his wife in front of his own kids? Besides that no he wouldnt, the end of his lhw reign was punctuated with some godawful performances, likely because he wasnt on steroids. He went to a decision against anthony smith, almost lost a split decision to a one legged thiago santos and clearly lost 3-2 to reyes, boss man dana even said so. If it wasnt for taking peds against DC and Gus its highly likely he would have lost those fights, no disrespect.
Watch how everyone will switch up on Aspinall if he loses against Jon Jones. Aspinall doesn't have fans. He has Jon Jones haters who are rooting for him because they wanna see Jones lose. After Aspinall loses everyone will move on to the next fighter. I'm calling it right now.
Tell me about it bro, I been watching Jon Jones since he was 23. I was around 8 years old now I'm 23!! It's always the same bs people say man, MMA fans are worse then boxing fans. At least in dried up boxing they don't switch up, but in MMA your hated as a MF after your loss it's crazy 😭. Canelo lossed to bivol and was praised but if Jones loses to Aspinall which I doubt, he would be the worse enemy ever in the history of man kind. MMA MAN MMA IT IS A CRAZY SPORT HAHA
I love when people say jon jones has "haters" 😂. Dudes a complete POS of course people hate him lol. Plus I do agree people just want to see Jones lose, but Tom has had some pretty great performances to generate that hype. Dudes never had to go past round 2 in his fights.
Cope from a salty Jon Jones fan who knows Jon would get his ass whipped by Aspinall. Unfortunately we will never see it because Jones will take the easier Stipe fight and then retire.
Tom is actually one of the only heavyweights where I’ve thought “that dude would actually wreck on a football field”…. I’ve hardly ever seen a man that size move that way that isn’t an NFL DE. Jon Jones just happens to be another one of them.. that’s a dream fight
Aspinall isn't afraid of Jones. Jones isn't afraid of Aspinall. Jones is afraid of tainting his perfect record. Aspinall wants the belt and glory, and he's willing to risk his legacy. If Aspinall loses to Jones, he will never go down as an all time great. It will always overshadow him. But if he beats Jones he'll go down as a great immediately.
Exactly how the world works. Nobody gives a crap if you beat an entire division or won every belt. They only care if you beat a certain somebody. But in the eyes of true mma fans like me “ it doesn’t work like that”
jon doesn't have a perfect record, he's not undefeated, he also has 2 failed drug test suspensions. Jon is trying to save whatever tainted legacy he's got left.
I don’t understand the argument that just because Tom finished his fights fast that he might gas out in later rounds. Tom doesn’t fight like the older generations of heavyweights who would charge in throwing bombs, he’s quick on his feet bouncing in and out and throwing the jab cross combo.
Jon has the fight IQ to know that Tom would smoke him with sheer speed and mass 9 out of 10 times. That's why he's waiting for old man Stipe and retirement.
See^^ people have opinions kid lmao welcome to it man. I personally think Tom beats the brakes off Jon. I think Jon knows that, which is why Tom defended an interim belt and Jon is waiting for 42 year old stipe who hasn’t fought in 4 years and is coming off an L lmao
@Bobbybouchet705 he's not only done it to blaydes though has he, you forgetting pavlovic, and all the others, he has the the shortest average fight time in the UFC🤷 I it ain't no fluke
Wow he knocked out Curtis. But Derek Lewis knocked him out better. He subbed Volkov, Derek Lewis knocked him tf out too. My boy Derek even beat Francis Ngannou. So don’t be getting bumthrills over Tom okay ?
There’s a lot of people who know nothing about this sport and it shows. Aspinal has done nothing to even deserve this fight above stipe and pereira. Jon only has a couple of fights left, he can literally do whatever he wants for his final two fights. And Stipe and Pereira are more accomplished, and better fighters than aspinal.
No doubt Jon Jones was once the goat but that was then and this is now. I have no doubt that today, right now, Tom Aspinal would decisively and quickly defeat John Jones. No matter what Jon Jones says publicly, in private he actually is frightened to death of Tom Aspinal. His fear of Tom Aspinal isn’t only because he fears Tom Aspinall will severely brutalise and beat him up physically, and probably put him in the hospital, but because he will also ruin his still perfect undefeated career and he wants to retire undefeated. That is why I doubt you will ever see John Jones fight Tom Aspinal. It’s just too much of a risk for him to take that on.
In 18 fights, 3 have gone to the 2nd round, the rest all finished in the 1st! Think we're seeing why Jon Jones is playing scary cat. (Deep inside, he's preparing like the Master).
You're fucking retarded. Tom is the interim champion, Jones is the champion. There is nothing else to be said for this fight to happen. If Jones doesn't take it, he doesn't deserve that belt, especially not after beating a 42 year old Stipe.
*Jon Jones 2 fights at heavy weight..... they call him the best heavy weight.... that is RIDICULOUS. He was the best at LIGHT HEAVY WEIGHT, that is a different thing, and it was ten years ago. I doubt Jones would keep his pace at the 4th round.*
It wasn't like Jon rematched Gus right away to prove what he was claiming,, it happened 5 years later after Gus had been in wars, KO'd, injured constantly, Gus' fight with Jon and the fights after that showed 2013 Gus was long gone.
Ok and ? Guss only had 5 fights in between & went 3-2 with only 1 TKO🤣 His fight before Jones he KO’d Teixeira🤣 Jones had 4 fights in between & went to war with DC twice
@@brandonmoyd2942 Jones didn't have a war with DC Lol, Gus did though. The fact he only had 5 fights in 5 years only shows how injury prone he was and speaking of that Glover win, Gus was out with an injured groin after that fight for over a year............While Gus spent years out due to injury, Jones was out due to failing PED tests
@@brandonmoyd2942Jones was on STEROIDS for that fight, they had to move an entire event to another state on 1 weeks notice And Jones struggled with absolute bums, Aspinall finishes everyone easily.
Jones knows the end of his career is near . He’s not scared to fight Aspinall but he knows that Tom is legitimate threat . He’s milking it for the maximum dollars. I hope Tom wins but I’m not counting out Jones . I don’t like him as a person but you have to respect him as a fighter.
Jones could go down as the greatest LHW champion of all time and a mediocre HW champion . Kind of like GSP but GSP knew he had a favourable matchup and didn’t want to go through defending a championship again . At least he retired and didn’t hold up the division.
“ what’s it like with Jon jones in the 5th round “ Couldn’t make it past the first, Tom would sleep him every time, that’s why jones will fight stipe and retire and I don’t blame him but at least give up your belt if you ain’t gonna fight Tom!
You guys don't get it man. Aspinall is beating all these peope jon would also not have issues with. you can't put aspinall up against people jon has fought and win. This always happens. Jon always completely eats everyone that is thrown his way. Aspinall is no different. He's a young, charismatic boxer. Jon moves different. Aspinall tries ro predict movement. Jon throws you into the wall and beats you to death. Its not a match up.
Then why does he sound so reluctant to fight him, when Aspinall is holding the interim position and should be rightful next contender? Jones was talking about vacating the belt instead of fighting Aspinall, but then in the same presser mentions fighting Derrick Lewis! This isn't about some grudge match shit, it's about a legitimate sport of succession where the best fight the best, and the best is moving real insecure at the moment 😅

Everyone has a plan untill Tom Aspinall smashes them in their face in the first round because he's 3 times quicker than them. JJ is the GOAT but he knows Tom is too much. Betting on, avoiding Tom's offense till his cardio giving out is a dumb bet.
Hear this with everyone. Everyone was so convinced Johnny Walker would be the guy and that he was unbeatable.Then Pav was supposed to be unbeatable. MMA fans are up there with Nascar for most uneducated. They just latch on to the next hype train and act as if they're the greatest ever after a few quality wins.
Then there's the Jones fans who believe he doesn't have to fight anyone because "they know Jones would win, easy" Defend your belt against Sergei the #1 contender, Jones Fan: "Nah brah, there's no point, Jones would win" Jones needs to unify the titles, Jones fan: "Homie, no need for that, Jones is king, why should he fight Tom? Jones smokes him" Also, there's no comparison between Walker and Tom or Sergei, Tom and Sergei actually made it to a #1 contender spot, Walker never did.
The ONLY question is a simple one.. Can Jon Jones survive the 1st round??? Notice how Aspinall trains with fresh fighters back to back for 5 rounds.. Barely a break.. Aspinall can go 5 rounds.. However, it isn't going anywhere close..
The second guss fight jones tested positive for peds so the entire event had to get moved to a different state to get past the commission… “The real jones” indeed.

There’s a good chance that Aspinal beats Jon and vice versa but Jon has never given me a reason to doubt his ability and I think experience will reign supreme if they fight.
He literally lost to Reyes. He's such a fraud. Dude rules over the shit divisions in MMA and some black dudes make this stupid Floyd parallels. Even Floyd who is kind of a fraud "GOAT" himself has a much better record against many elites, the only Jon opponent that holds up to the test of time is DC.
It's the opposite. Casuals are judging this fight off of Jon's legacy instead of the actual matchup. Tom is his worst nightmare stylistically as well as being a much larger man naturally. EZ KO win in the first round for Tom.
all the haters are so desperate for Jon to lose.... Jon will beat Tom.... he's young and fast and strong.... but Jon is unbeaten... give the older guy time to heal, have a tune-up fight against Stipe, and once he beats Tom, please, come back and say sorry
@LeftMindedThoughts the one lost is he illegally kicked the opponent while dominate the fight. So technically he is Undefeated but statistically he lost 1 fight 👍
He arguably lost to gus 1, took santos to a split decision , took smith to the fifth round , clearly lost 3-2 to Reyes and barely survived osp. So yeah Jon jones is really the “goat” plus he is a ped cheat 😉
I just want to see Jon go up against Francis. Tom is a beast no lie. A respectful fighter nonetheless. But, l want to see the fearsome boogeyman vs the monster of madness.
Jones is terrified of tom. A tall striker scares him but he would grapple. But aspinall would be stronger and much heavier and a pedigree grappler. Tom won the BJJ British open at every belt other than black. Hes an elite grappler

@@SRT_DRE the only heavyweights Jon has beat were a kickboxer and a semi-retired old man. He waited until Francis was gone before moving up and is now trying to outprice the only heavyweight he fears.
I’m gonna give an explanation as to why Jon will lose to Aspinal if they ever fight:
1. Size. Jon is notorious for struggling against fighters who somewhat match him in size and reach. This is shown in his razor close decisions against Reyes and Gustafsson. He even went to decision with Anthony smith! Almost everyone Jon beat in his early career, was significantly smaller in statue, but later on into his career when he came across opponents similar sized, he found more of a challenge.
2. Style. If you go and rewatch Jon’s fights, he generally has an issue with boxer heavy styles. Biggest examples are Reyes and Gustafsson. Reason for this is Jon doesn’t really box. He clearly favoures elbows, teal kicks, oblique kicks and body and head kicks. I’m serious! Watch his fights and you’ll see he rarely boxes. When dealing with someone like Tom, who btw actually has an ameteur boxing record, he will struggle.
3. Ground game. This part of the argument is a bit weak I’ll be honest. Tom has been trained by his dad from a very young age in BJJ. It was his first ever martial art. Jon will not be able to cope against attempting to wrestle someone of Tom’s size, age and speed. I just don’t see it
4. Speed. Watch Jon’s fight against Cyril Gane. Specifically, watch his speed. It’s evident that Jon’s move up to heavyweight has had a toll on his speed (though that could also be his age too). The fastest moment he had in the fight was his shot into the takedown. Granted, we didn’t see too much of him fighting because the fight was so fast, but even from the short timeframe we did see, he’s clearly got slower. Compare this to Tom’s speed, and see for yourself. Pair this with the boxing I previously mentioned, and you’ll see the issue I’m pointing out.
5. Age. Jon has stated he is coming towards the end of his career. Despite being 37 (same age as Alex Pereira who has had an extensive kickboxing career btw) he believes he only has a couple fights left. Tom Aspinal is 31. Not only is he younger, but he’s hungrier. Jon’s halfway out the door, Tom has only just got in.
The one thing that primarily sets Jon apart is his fight IQ. It always has. And Jon is intelligent enough (in a fighting sense) to know that if he fights Aspinal, he will lose. That’s why he’s ducking him. Behind all the tweets, behind all the chatter, he is scared of tarnishing his perfect record.
Yeah but Jon does coke and juice so Imma bet on him
I'm not so convinced it's as clear cut as that, fighting never is, but I still agree with you totally in a sense that Jon is definitely ducking Tom.
He's holding for the Stipe fight because he knows that Stipe is as good as finished. Stipe is approaching his mid 40's, and him and Francis practically retired each other in their last fight.
Whereas Tom is everything you just described.
Jon wants to go out with (what he believes to be) a practically guaranteed win.
This is why I believe he's gonna go full narcissist and retire the second his fight with Stipe is over, if that fight ever happens.
I really do hope Stipe wins against Jon, but more than that I hope Stipe retires first, and Jon is forced to fight Tom or give up the H.W title.
Typed all that for no reason lol Jon is the goat & will show why he is .. stop underestimating Jon , it’s weirdo h8er behavior ..
@ghosthusler That's a good point, and that's why I'm going to put all .y chips on him too.
@@BWall-h4d Jones Signed a 6 fight contract at HW.... I'm not convinced that he's going to retire after Stipe... Is Jones truly had a retirement on his mind he would have signed a 2 fight contract.
I'm also not convinced Tom is such a huge threat. Tom is a primarily a Boxer and Jones DOESN'T fight in Boxing Range so How the Hell Tom going to Catch Jones plus will Still have a big Reach advantage. Tom you have to change his style and add a lot of kicks to close the distance BUT that will leave him open for Takedowns. I don't care How good Tom is in BJJ, Nobody wants Jones on top of them...
You can't be the scariest fighter in the world while you are scared of fighting someone simple.
These dudes are professional fighters no one is scared but you boy!!!
@@abovethelaw7906 jon is most certainly scared lmfao
I don't get this logic. He proved he was best when he beat DC 2 times and gustafsson 2 times? What does he have to prove that he can't beat aspinall
All hype, they sell you a different Aspinall every few years...don't buy it. He won't be around 2 years from now.
You’re crazy if you think Jon is scared of Tom
I respect Rogan’s views, obviously, but Jones is getting old and has not been tested at heavyweight. Aspinall has grappled since age 7. Aspinall is bigger, stronger, faster, and he is the favorite to win against Jones.
27 wins not loss jonh Jones.
Few wins and 4 loss tom aspinal .

@@emersonmilimerson2622 Aspinall only has 1 real loss early in his career by a sneaky leglock IN A FIGHT HE WAS WINNING (by ground and pound), aside from that it's a disqualification from a 12-6 elbow in a fight he was winning (just like Jones' loss), and a freak injury on his already damaged knee (and we all saw what happened when Tom was healthy vs Blaydes... 1 minute.)
Jones literally lost 3 rounds to the BUM Reyes, Aspinall is better everywhere.
@@emersonmilimerson2622Jon Jones hasn’t fought like “Jon Jones” in since 2018.
He looked very average against anthony smith (who has 20 losses)
He looked terrible against thiago santos and domonik reyes and debatably lost both of those fights
Depends on Jones entirely. most of the time he has been literally having fun in the octagon. Jones' coaches tell him to "have fun" in the octagon. remember when jones said he'd "kill, not fight you" to DC. He is capable of FAR more than he's shown. but he truly would be aspinall despite aspinall's speed, power, and youth.
Jon would immediately be aiming to damage aspinall's movement as a whole with a couple oblique kicks. after that aspinall is screwed. he'd have to knock jon out fast, which isn't likely because jon too is fast, even at heavy weight he isn't very likely to get knocked out. and we all know ground game is the number 1 in the ufc.

Hilarious to see all the Jones fans cope and try to make some pea brained argument for how he’d beat Tom. Tom is a stylistic nightmare for Jones, he is taller, naturally heavier, has great boxing, and good wrestling and BJJ so he can’t be bullied on the ground like Gane. Jones would not only lose this fight, he’d get dominated.
Yeah all they have to say is "He never lost no one ever beat him so he can't lose". It's cringe.

@xxsskyyxx Jon can't finish Smith in 5 rounds who has over 20 losses but is the "boogeyman" of a weight class 60lbs above where he has 1 fight submitting a white belt? Wow, scary 😨
So jones is basically middleweight Roman Dolidze on 1weeks notice going up a weight class?
Meanwhile Tom is finishing ALL the top heavyweight contenders in the first round, average fight is 2mins in 9 fights, only loss in UFC is self inflicted injury. You could add every ufc fight he's ever had and add 5mins on top of that and it'd still be less octagon time than the JONES SMITH FIGHT.
There isn't a singular soul who has stepped in the octagon with Tom and has not been KO'D or submitted by him,
3 in the top 5, 5 in the top 10.
I could give you an entire grocery list of the guys jones couldn't finish.

@@tempofugo168 dEadLy iSTiNct and FiGhT Iq stop spewing nonsense and actually watch Jons previous fights. Anyone bigger than Jon with grappling Jon has struggled against: Reyes should’ve won, Gustafsson arguably won. Aspinall has the traits of those other guys, but bigger and faster. Im not saying its a guaranteed win for Aspinall but Jones is the underdog here
Anyone else here expecting to hear some positive words about Gustafsson? How he performed in that fight will always be something to remember...atleast for me. Bringing up excuses won't change anything. He went in that octagone with Gustafsson and with that said...how he choosed to prepare is up to him.
Why do people act like tom has never known how it's like to be tired, he obviously has been training on his cardio as well
training cardio and fight cardio is a whole diff thing
Bollocks, Aspinall trains for the full 9 yards even though he finishes all opponents within the 1st. The fact that he smashes everyone in the 1st means he’s the real deal. Scrappers that go the distance are mediocre, I notice that you don’t say the same about early Mike Tyson😅
I am sure Tom would beat Jon in 2 rounds only. Jon knows how dangerous Tom is and that is why he is choosing the easy fight with Stipe. Tom finished all his opponents either by KO or submission while Jon won many fights by decision.

So many fights have been temporarily avoided, for any number of reasons, then ultimately happened with a much larger purse than would've been paid out if it happened straight away. Yes Aspinal is a beast, and it probably wouldn't come as an extreme shock if he beat Jones... But tell me true, is anyone gonna be all that shocked if Jon beats Aspinal... I don't think so. ~ My prediction is Jon would damage Tom's legs/knees enough to take him down and choke him out; maybe not as quick and easy as he did with Stipe and Ciryl. Jones seems to've figured out how to finish big, tough, fast heavy weights.
Are they kidding? Jones was far from a killer in his last 3 LHW fights
Jon is not even fighting Champion and joe says it would be interesting if they get into 2nd round.😅

@AlanHinson Thats ridiculous. Aspinall has been knocking out everyone in the top 10. When is the last time Jones knocked out someone?
Tom is actually one of the only heavyweights where I’ve thought “that dude would actually wreck on a football field”…. I’ve hardly ever seen a man that size move that way that isn’t an NFL DE. Jon Jones just happens to be another one of them.. that’s a dream fight
Aspinall isn't afraid of Jones. Jones isn't afraid of Aspinall. Jones is afraid of tainting his perfect record. Aspinall wants the belt and glory, and he's willing to risk his legacy. If Aspinall loses to Jones, he will never go down as an all time great. It will always overshadow him. But if he beats Jones he'll go down as a great immediately.
Exactly how the world works.
Nobody gives a crap if you beat an entire division or won every belt.
They only care if you beat a certain somebody. But in the eyes of true mma fans like me “ it doesn’t work like that”
jon doesn't have a perfect record, he's not undefeated, he also has 2 failed drug test suspensions. Jon is trying to save whatever tainted legacy he's got left.
Aspinall is already a great of the current heavyweight era since he's beat 6 of the top ten
Being afraid of tainting your perfect record against someone means you're afraid of losing to them, which kind of means you're afraid of them 😅

I don’t understand the argument that just because Tom finished his fights fast that he might gas out in later rounds. Tom doesn’t fight like the older generations of heavyweights who would charge in throwing bombs, he’s quick on his feet bouncing in and out and throwing the jab cross combo.
Jon has the fight IQ to know that Tom would smoke him with sheer speed and mass 9 out of 10 times. That's why he's waiting for old man Stipe and retirement.

No doubt Jon Jones was once the goat but that was then and this is now. I have no doubt that today, right now, Tom Aspinal would decisively and quickly defeat John Jones. No matter what Jon Jones says publicly, in private he actually is frightened to death of Tom Aspinal. His fear of Tom Aspinal isn’t only because he fears Tom Aspinall will severely brutalise and beat him up physically, and probably put him in the hospital, but because he will also ruin his still perfect undefeated career and he wants to retire undefeated. That is why I doubt you will ever see John Jones fight Tom Aspinal. It’s just too much of a risk for him to take that on.

@Behdkw you’ve never trained in your life I’m actually someone who trains mma u just a fan who never competed or did anything in his life ,don’t u think Tom would start at light heavyweight if he was at the same time as Reyes? Reyes is 6-7 years older than Tom.youre a little slow bud
@Behdkw 😂😂😂 pointing out the obvious is not getting emotional clearly u can’t count to one ow that Tom is like years younger than Reyes lol but yeah keep watching your fights it will do you very good in life lol
@Behdkw if I recall it u insulted me saying that’s the dumbest take u ever heard,again I’m gonna stand on what I said you’re a little slow my friend 😂😂😂
Who is this guy on the Rogan podcast?
Jones will destroy Tom just like he did Cyril gane easy work
Aspinal said lets settle it .Jones is champion he is interim champ lets setlle aspinal said
I’m a UFC fan John has nothing to prove he’s the elite next fight, Francis Ngannou vs Tom Aspinall then John Jones fight the winner if he desires to fight 💯🥂
Avoiding fighters because you’re afraid you’ll lose, that’s the GOAT mentality right there!
it’s sad the MJ of mma going out like a bitch
He lost
Jon's not avoiding anyone this is so dumb jon is and has been under contract to fight Stipe for awhile. It's ignorance not to at least wait for this fight to happen before saying these things.
@@herealittlewhile7448Jon wanted to fight stipe over the deserving #1 contenders who is currently holding the interim belt. Jon is ducking 1000%.
@g_l_o_o_m_y_y just don't hide/duck when Jon knocks out Tom
WATCH REYES FIGHT WHEN JONES WAS YOUNGER? REYES RAN HIS ASS ALL OVER , AND LANDED MORE STRICKS THAN JONES !! TOM WILL RUN THRU JONES FIRST ROUND / TOM WATCHES FILM RELIGIOUSLY 😂😂😂😂
Thing is tom aspinall can turn you're lights out at any moment something jones doesn't have
Why most people dont understand is how different everyone becomes when they face jones in the octagon.
Reyes beat him. Former middleweight Thiago nearly beat him lmao. Tom has beaten 8 HWs in less time than it took jon to beat 42 year old stipe. Admit you're a disabled fanboy. Its easier😂
Jones Mind: “they forgot to mention my hiding unstoppable eye poking strategy. “
Tom Aspinal: “Jones has the most eye poking accuracy than anyone in UFC history!”
Tom would walk through Jon at this point and he knows it
Nobody has ever walked through Jones and he wouldn't let that happen against aspinall
@@sukhdevr3489 "You really think I'm gonna let you kill me, Tom?"
@@sukhdevr3489he's gonna lose 3 rounds to tom like reyes?
Cmon dude really
I dont mean to be "that guy". But we have seen Aspinall go past the first round. Once with Arlovski and then with Volkov
Volkov got subbed in the first
@@leftnutlarry24 Sh*t, so he did.
The answer is: Yes!
Lights out 1 round Aspinall too fast .
It’s only these weirdo brand new to UFC fan boys that are talking like Aspinal steam rolls Jon jones and now they calling him a duck 😂. they not Aspinal fans or even UFC fans. They just Jon Jones haters that wanna see him lose. Exact same thing with Floyd in boxing it’s the usual formula of hating ass dudes 😂. Jon has 0 left to prove to anyone whatsoever. There’s a good chance that Aspinal beats Jon and vice versa but Jon has never given me a reason to doubt his ability and I think experience will reign supreme if they fight.
I noticed this every time a black guy dominates in a sport. It's weird.
@@UziuLK Always gotta bring race shit into it.
He literally lost to Reyes. He's such a fraud. Dude rules over the shit divisions in MMA and some black dudes make this stupid Floyd parallels. Even Floyd who is kind of a fraud "GOAT" himself has a much better record against many elites, the only Jon opponent that holds up to the test of time is DC.
@@UziuLK who tf said this about Ngannou ? The only weird one is you.
It's the opposite. Casuals are judging this fight off of Jon's legacy instead of the actual matchup. Tom is his worst nightmare stylistically as well as being a much larger man naturally. EZ KO win in the first round for Tom.
I love both.
If they ever fight, may the best win!
all the haters are so desperate for Jon to lose.... Jon will beat Tom.... he's young and fast and strong.... but Jon is unbeaten... give the older guy time to heal, have a tune-up fight against Stipe, and once he beats Tom, please, come back and say sorry
Fr
Jon Jones has a record of 27-1. So he's not undefeated like you claim. Maybe you should be the one saying sorry. 😅
@@LeftMindedThoughts nope
@LeftMindedThoughts the one lost is he illegally kicked the opponent while dominate the fight. So technically he is Undefeated but statistically he lost 1 fight 👍
You're delusional. Tom is a whole different level, even to a Jones 6 years ago.
Jones already lost 1-3 times.. so why don't people think he can be beat?
Jon knows there is a solid chance that tom could beat him and thats why he wont fight him
Jon jones is the steroid boogie man at light heavy weight.
What about Cyril Gane ?wasn’t he the fastest heavyweight ever seen in UFC.Did we all forget how did it ends???
The way jones would destroy aspinall isn’t even funny
Fr
And not possible since roid jones would get smoked in 100 out of 100 fights with Aspinall...
@@Hydraxon1980 if aspinall gets in the clinch with jones who is an Olympic caliber wrestler aspinall loses 100 times
He wasn’t on rounds either it was supplements and had a pictogram of a PED lol
Can't say that someone who didn't train party hardcore is scared of anyone due to most train an study for there fight make it make sense
We go thru this every Jon fight lol. Jon beats him easy
Get off his meat 🤡 if Jon decides to ever stop running and take the fight then we can see until then you can’t say nothing goofy
If only Jones actually belied that we wouldn't have 2 champs right now
Facts I remember them lil goofy ahh casuals thinking Gane was gon beat him, after Jones whopped them they said Gane wasn’t good🤣🤣
I’m with you dude
@@brandonmoyd2942you mean the guy with absolutely no wresting whatsoever? yeah really surprised people… 😂🤦♂️
Jon jones wont take last minute fight right?! Then ur also say he wants time for full camp so he can NOT TRAIN?!
This makes no sense.
Jon jones is king of combat. He's always supposed to lose to the next guy and never does 😂
He arguably lost to gus 1, took santos to a split decision , took smith to the fifth round , clearly lost 3-2 to Reyes and barely survived osp. So yeah Jon jones is really the “goat” plus he is a ped cheat 😉
@@Stcyril-c3lJon Jones would whoop Tommy
Jon on steroid beats everyone
Steroids won’t keep you from getting KOed
@@mighthookya2637Actually they will, since he never got knocked out 😘
You heard it. He ain’t lying .
I just want to see Jon go up against Francis. Tom is a beast no lie. A respectful fighter nonetheless. But, l want to see the fearsome boogeyman vs the monster of madness.
Jones is terrified of tom. A tall striker scares him but he would grapple. But aspinall would be stronger and much heavier and a pedigree grappler. Tom won the BJJ British open at every belt other than black. Hes an elite grappler
Keep selling Jones all you want, he's ducking Aspinal, as he wants to keep his legacy intact, and who can blame him.
Jon Jones Pound for Pound best MMA dodger.
