As far as current interim heavyweight champion, Tom Aspinall is concerned, a potential offing with either fellow gold holder, Jon Jones or former two-time titleholder, Stipe Miocic at UFC 309 is fine by him — off the heels of confirmation from CEO, Dana White how the Atherton native will serve as an official back up fighter at the event.
Aspinall, the current interim heavyweight titleholder, has been sidelined since he co-headlined UFC 304 back in July in Manchester, avenging his sole professional defeat in a one-sided opening round knockout win over perennial contender, Curtis Blaydes in the pair’s rematch.
