Lol noPretty sure current, obese DC would maul Assquitinall
The 3 times in Aspinalls career he was faced with any adversity he quit each time. That didn't stop him from becoming the UFC HW Paper champion of the world.The guy is a promising prospect but lets not get ahead of ourselves. He has yet to get punched n the mouth and face real adversity.
How is Aspinall a paper champion? I assume you don't consider Jon a paper champion yet he simply won a vacant title against his perfect style match up. An opponent who was never a champion himself. He never defended that paper title against a current #1 contender. He had to be stripped of that title rather than defend and unify against the Reigning, Defending Interim UFC HW champion.The 3 times in Aspinalls career he was faced with any adversity he quit each time.

Jons HW belt definitely has an asterisk next to it because he never beat the lineal champion, but the difference between him and Tom is he beat the #1 ranked HW to get it.How is Aspinall a paper champion?

Jon had one adverse opponent and didn't even show up. That's far worse than refusing to keep fighting a kickboxer when they double eye gouge you.

Yes Jon did. Why do you think Gane was ranked #1? The UFC are very good at manipulating rankings when they so desire.Jons HW belt definitely has an asterisk next to it because he never beat the lineal champion, but the difference between him and Tom is he beat the #1 ranked HW to get it.

How's about knocking him the fuck out? The betting odds didnt tell the same story youre telling.Yes Jon did. Why do you think Gane was ranked #1? The UFC are very good at manipulating rankings when they so desire.
Gane was on a 1 fight win streak. Beating Tai Tuivasa doesn't make him the best HW at the time Jon chose to resurface. That was as soon as Francis was gone.
Since you are using Tapology rankings did you notice Blaydes, Pavlovich, Volkov and Aspinall were 2-5? None of them have had a title shot while Gane just lost his? #1 contenders that lose to the champion never drop a spot as a matter of who knows what? Miss your title shot as #1 contender and stay #1 contender? Makes very little sense.
Blaydes, Pav, Volkov and Aspinall all stand a better chance against Jones and have some path to victory, while Gane literally has zero chance against him. Blaydes has one shot power if he lands and is a top tier wrestler in MMA. Volkov has the reach to give Jon a challenge similar to Gus but an actual HW. Pav has that one shot KO power Jones has never faced. Aspinall is well rounded and has KO power and poses a submission and GnP threat. Not claiming any or all would be favourites. Just that Gane is posing literally ZERO threat to Jon. There is a reason he fought Gane and then the retired Stipe but never unified against Tom.
So basically, ignore the rankings and fight whoever I personally want you to fight.Yes Jon did. Why do you think Gane was ranked #1? The UFC are very good at manipulating rankings when they so desire.
