Things are once again heating up between heavyweight champions Jon Jones and Tom Aspinall.
In July, Aspinall became the first fighter in more than a decade to defend an interim belt, squaring off with Curtis Blaydes in the UFC 304 co-main event in Manchester. Aspinall only needed 60 seconds to finish Blaydes, avenging his lone loss inside the Octagon and establishing himself as perhaps the best heavyweight mixed martial artist in the world.
Immediately following the finish, all eyes turned right back to Jon Jones, the UFC’s undisputed heavyweight champion, who has been relentlessly trolled by Aspinall and fight fans for continuously ducking a unification clash in favor of an unnecessary legacy fight against two-time titleholder Stipe Miocic.
