How much will Uncle Dana pay Jones to fight Tommy?

[Lord Pyjamas]

Jon said at the post-fight press conference that only "f*ck you money" would interest him to fight Aspinall.

I think Jones wanted $30 million to fight Ngannou before, which UFC declined.
But now Dana/Hunter are eager to book Jones vs. Aspinall (large part due to fan demand) and you know tomato guy knows a $$ megafight $$ when he sees one.

How much Dana/Hunter willing to spend?
Would Jones accept anything under $50 million?

The UFC always try to play on Jones pride and hubris but he has always done it like a prize fighter.
They would have to pay him double the amount of money it was worth to put this fight in place.
Jones is gone!

If they believe the fight will sell at least 750K PPVs, that would be probably be reasonable, but they don't believe it.

Maybe if they guarantee a Poatan fight next and offer Jones 30M total for both fights that would work.

Jones ain’t gonna fight Tom, and UFC are not gonna pay him, this man threw a tantrum on twitter after Francis beat Stipe
