And hes alot bigger than even swollen roid jonesJones would obliterate Blaydes but the Aspinal fight is super interesting. Tom's hands and speed is something else for a heavyweight.

Dont say these things.Jones is going to fight Fedor after the Stipe fight.
I think Jon would take him down. Almeida controlled him easily in round one despite being smaller.The only thing Jon has over Blaydes is fight IQ. Curtis nullifies the wrestling which is Jon's only path to victory in the HW division and he comes forward and hits harder. Blaydes is a bad fight for Jon but I could see him outsmarting him in some way
The issue is Jones won the belt from the guy that lost to the previous champion. The lineal belt left the UFC.
Jones and Gane fought for the vacant championship with Jones winning. He was booked to face Stipe initially when he got injured a few weeks out. No issues there, but since then we had an interim fight and are going to have a defence of that interim. Jones has no defences, won a belt with as much legitimacy as Tom's and now we have the interim getting defended.
Strip the UFC title, make Jones vs Stipe for the Big Boy BMF belt (best lhw vs best HW champs) and let the HW division get moving again. At this point Cain fought more regularly than the last 3 HW champs have.
