Media Jon Jones Back n Forth with Tom Aspinall Completely Dismissing Him - Tom Responds - Newest Update Jones Confirms WILL retire after Stipe fight

Just let Jon ride off into the sunset. Aspinall can have his time then.
 
It's strange that the interim champ must defend his belt against real contenders and the real champ can fight almost retired fighters.

JJ should give his belt to tom and then doing a double retirement fight against stipe without holding up the division.
 
I mean we don't like it as fans, but Jones gets the right to call it when he wants to call it. He's earned that much.

That said Tom has two out of the box options to get a fight.

One he could get to Jons pride and ego. Cuz it sounds like he's quitting because he knows he can't fight like he used to. But that's the problem Jones wanted to fight when it was easy for him. Now that he knows he's getting older he doesn't want to challenge himself. Because he's afraid of getting sent to the shadow realm even though he's never really been close to it in an actual mma fight. Start going in on how he's a safe fighter only taking fights he believes he can easily win.

His other option would be to offer him something he doesn't have. Make it benefit him. He's technically not an undefeated fighter. But I'm sure he'd do anything to be Tom should petition the athletic commission as hard as he can. To help get that loss off his record, now Tom doesn't really have the means to do so, but he should figure it out. And state that for the rest of his career he will fight on his behalf. Because he wants to fight undefeated Jones.

But right now Tom doesn't move the needle for Jones so if he wants the fight he's gotta figure it out.

Or last option would be too go full heel and storm the cage after the Jones v stipe fight. And call him out for ducking right before he gets to retire. To always put doubt in the fans mind. And get his ego going, where he feels he has to defend his honor.
 
UFC is giving Micky mouse vibes not stripping Jon.

It's not clear when he'll be back and he's admitted that he's fighting a retired stipe then calling it a day lol.

Make Aspinall the champ.
 
Why is Jon refusing to fight the interim champion? Jon is the champion. There's no cope. Just fucking frustration. I don't even care if Jon is scared of Aspinall or not. Just give up the belt and stop holding up the division. Or just fight.
Of course hes not gonna give up the belt lmao

Its the UFC thats created this situation,moreso than Jon

Jon is never going to do that voluntarily. Its the UFC that has to make that move.

But this is the bed they've made and they intend to lie in it.
 
Jones should just retire or vacate the belt if he has no intentions of defending it.

I don't really care if he wants to only fight Stipe, that's fine. What isn't cool is holding up the division and the title while you do that.

I also think despite having such a great career.. Jones is just insecure. I actually think he could beat Aspinal.. and it would be a big fight and a great win.. but he doesn't seem so sure of himself. Which is honestly a sign that it is time to retire. If he wants to leave the spot without a loss, might as well just leave now. The Stipe fight coming off multiple surgeries might not be a gimme.
 
Tom should just say "ok PED user, do your freak show fight with a guy who hasn't fought in three years and who got the KTFO the last time we saw him and GTFO".

Its not gonna do him any good. The worst Jones could do back to him is what he's already doing.

lol

like jones cares about what people think about this.

He's gonna wait and get his last payday. Fighting Tom has nothing to do with his plan. When he retires he will just bitch at people on twitter about being the cleanest athlete ever when people mention Tom.
 
Tom is so desperate to ride Jon’s coattails. Why don’t prove yourself by actually fighting more contenders.

Tom already thought about quitting. He just wants to steal some of Jones light to ATTEMPT to make a name for himself so he can say he did it all before he hangs them…problem is he’s going about it in the most DIVA way possible
