News Dana White "100% guarantees" Jones vs Aspinall fight

[Subline]

What do you guys think? Do you trust in the boss man?

I really hope so, but Dana White is not to be trusted

 

[ExitLUPin]

This is a good tactic because when/if it doesn't happen everyone knows which side didn't want it to happen.

Jon should take the fight. If he loses he still has the GOAT resume but is a steroid cheat.

If he wins he has the GOAT resume but is a steroid cheat, but he'll be a hell of a lot richer.


Honestly think he has a good chance against Tom, and can make a pile of cash at HW.


TLDR he has nothing to lose. His perfect record doesn't mean anything in the grand scheme of things because it will always be undermined by his cheating. His resume on the other hand is incontestable and his net worth can become MUCH greater.

Will the Saudis get involved and help make it happen? We know Jones is going to ask for the moon.

In any case, I really hope Dana isn't lying this time.

Jones very much cares about his 'undefeated' record. It's also a huge reason why he's asking for "fuck you money" to fight Aspinall. He knows he has a very good chance of getting knocked out.

Jon will make 20-30 million and the Saudi's will help to make this happen. Jon has good chance of winning, even though I think Tom is the best right now...Jon Jones is still Jon Jones.

I doubt it happens personally

Jones will either get hurt in training camp or get in trouble in his personal life … something will happen that prevents this fight from happening

 

[AdamWarlock]

this actually means jones vs aspinall is never going to happen.

 

[SamuraiBro]

Watch this fight absolutely not happen

He does but he shouldn't, because losing to Tom at this stage of his career won't change what he's already accomplished with his resume, and it won't change that half the fans will always liken him to MMA's Lance Armstong. The only thing that will change is his net worth.

His perfect record is meaningless from a financial standpoint. I don't see Jon profiting by becoming some ambassador of the sport and world wide spokeperson/coach like Khabib. Jon has way to much shit on him for that. No one will ever consider him a hero or a marketable post career fighter because his story is not at all inspirational or role model like.

You're forgetting how big this guy's ego is lol.

I can totally see him not take $30 million to avoid getting knocked out by Aspinall.

You may very well be right, but the money and fame drag most fighters back. Tale as old as time. His quiet life in Albequerqe probably won't fufill him for very long.

First super fight we've had in awhile if true. Guess they are fighting in Dubai

I bet Dana is whispering to Jones that if he doesn’t take the fight, UFC is going to promote Aspinall as “the HW that Jon Jones didn’t want to fight” every time he fights. Dana doesn’t have to pay FU money. He knows Jones insecurity and how to outmaneuver him.

 

[ShadowRun]

Jones just wants to get paid well he knows Toms a easy fight and the next hype fighter is what’s talked about

 

[A Very Serious Cat]

God fucking damn it
The fight is never happening now

 

[Striker Fox]

 

[Takes Two To Tango]

Seeing is believing.

That's how i feel. It will be signed, Jon will get injured and ride off into the torn titty sunset.
