Rumored Jon Jones: "Ill Take On WHOEVER Has HW Title @ End Of Year"

Made a post calling this plan and said it's a pretty calculated/right play if the event does go ahead.


But that's a big if tho.
 
This saga is like groundhog day, round and round and round in circles we go constantly, going over the same thing. Gives me those creepy deja vu Chandler vs Conor vibes. ZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz........
It's just like Groundhog Day except Groundhog Day was actually good.
If I were the UFC I would politely tell Jones no thanks.
 
Jones has completely lost the plot, wouldn't be surprised if he's dead within 5yrs.
 
Seen this before. It's called retired Conor, and it gets uglier

Yeah so true, this is the most boring version of groundhog day lol. I'm just so bored and tired of it all, we're just going over the same thing all the time.
 
According to sherdog front page the title contender fight is set for fucking October between Almeida and Volkov. Which means neither of those two are fighting Aspinall any time this year.

I’m kinda shocked how incapable the ufc seems to be at getting Aspinall any sort of relevant and interesting fight.

So what, he’s just gonna sit out all fucking year?
Or are they gonna make another essentially fake fight by booking a squash match up for him with Gane and then have the winner of Volkov x Almeida just sit around til next October to fight for the belt after Jones retires with it?

I’m not gonna act like these are fights that don’t have certain predetermined winners. There’s no way the White House is gonna see America lose to England on the Fourth of July lol. Especially with a despotic nationalist lunatic seated at the presidency inviting this.

I think it’s break time for me and this sport
 
So you want to put the greatest light heavyweight fighter of all time and former light heavyweight and heavyweight champion in at #5 if and when he returns, likely behind someone he already beat?

Ok then.

Why not start him off in Dana Whites contender series to make sure he: "Earns his shot."
Yes I do. Jon's HW 'run' was a complete farce and a pain in everyone's ass. He deserves to fight whoever's #5 at the end of the year.
 
So why don't you share those actual PPV numbers buddy? Yea, because you don't know shit. If you were in a position to know that company confidential data, which you obviously are not, you would not be talking about it here.
You don't even have a clue about the publicly disclosed metrics which for Jon Jones' last fight were the 4th highest in UFC history and 2nd in Madison Square Garden history.
Speaking of guys that keep yapping about fights they never take, when was the last time Tom took a fight? The HW division is very active, it is only Tom that is not. Fighters fight, Tom doesn't.

Since you're so well informed, please let us know which fights Tom was offered that he "didn't take". Provide evidence too obviously. You're criticizing him for not being active but obviously you know he has to be offered fights to accept them. So please disclose specifically who and when he was offered.

I'd imagine if this thing ever happens it won't have a real championship fight. Probably just some active or inactive popular fighters fighting for fake "USA" or "DJT" belts.
 
Only if it's Gane!

Would be hilarious if Gane wins the belt, then refuses to fight Jones, get stripped, and it's Aspinall again for the next title fight.
 
Tbh I think it's a worse idea than just fighting Tom on ANY other card.

Losing to a Brit on the White House lawn would be a pretty bad mark on that 'legacy' Jon's consumed with.

Not really.
He beat Gane, a top contender.
The Stipe win was a farce. Then he stalled the division.

That has nothing to do with his skill level.
 
Nope, refused to fight the interim champion to the point he vacated and retired. You don’t get to just come back and go right back into a title fight.

He gets 10 points for beating Gane but he loses 5 points for ducking Frank. He loses another 15 points for fighting retiree Stipe instead of the interim champ. He again loses 5 points for ducking Tom after Stipe and a whopping 20 points for creating the shitshow where he absconded with the belt and refused to turn it in like a good duck. By my count he's at -35 points and that doesn't rate an immediate title shot. He needs at least 2 wins to prove himself and his good intentions.
