Tom Aspinall on Potential Jon Jones Fight: ‘I Think I Match Up Well’

Tom Aspinall put the Ultimate Fighting Championship’s heavyweight division on notice Saturday.

In his first fight in a year, the Englishman blitzed Marcin Tybura for a 73-second technical knockout victory in the UFC Fight Night 224 headliner at the O2 Arena in London. Aspinall’s blend of skill and athleticism was on full display, and he appears to be a difficult matchup for most anyone in the weight class. That includes Jon Jones, who Aspinall hasn’t been shy about mentioning as a desired opponent.

“I think I match up well,” Aspinall said at Saturday’s post-fight press conference.
