Daniel Cormier says Tom Aspinall is making the right moves against Jon Jones: ‘massive win for Tom’

Hall of Fame star, Daniel Cormier claims current interim champion, Tom Aspinall is on the right track by taking his current tact against fellow champion, Jon Jones — claiming the Rochester native is simply “ducking” a title unification bout with him.

Aspinall, the current interim heavyweight champion, managed to avenge his single Octagon defeat earlier this summer at the end of July, landing a first round knockout win over perennial contender, Curtis Blaydes.

And staking his claim for a shot at the undisputed heavyweight championship later this annum in place of the returning, Stipe Miocic, Aspinall’s campaign has bared no fruit so far — with Jones in line to take on the Ohio native in November in the main event of UFC 309 at Madison Square Garden.
