Jon Jones rips Tom Aspinall ahead of UFC 309 return: ‘He’s just an asshole, I don’t want to do business with him’

Ahead of his UFC 309 return, heavyweight champion, Jon Jones has made his feelings abundantly clear about Tom Aspinall – referring to the interim titleholder as an “asshole” and reiterating he has no intentions to fight him next.

Jones, who headlines UFC 309 this weekend at Madison Square Garden, is slated to take on former two-time champion, Stipe Miocic, in a rescheduled pairing following a failed matchup a year prior.

Out of action himself since March of last year, Rochester native, Jon Jones most recently racked up the vacant heavyweight crown with a stunning opening round guillotine choke win over Ciryl Gane, submitting the Frenchman with relative ease.
