Jones ain't gonna fight Aspinall

[Ruke Doufus]

imagine calling fans of the sport dick riders for thinking it makes zero sense for him to fight tom.

Imagine calling yourself a fan of the sport but not wanting the titles unified so a fighter can do a retirement victory lap against unqualified opponents instead

It seems like there's a possibility that the UFC might be willing to give Jones what he wants ($30M?)

“When Jones was doing his [post-fight] speech, I was looking directly at the UFC brass, Dana [White] and Hunter [Campbell], and both of them turned to me at the same time and pointed at me and winked. At the same time. To me, that says [there is] something big in the pipeline. As I said a moment ago, it’s the biggest fight.”, Aspinall said.

"if I give him the opportunity to fight me, I want to be so compensated. I want to say it – I want that ‘f–k you’ money, honestly. That’s just what it is. Or else my life is perfect without him. I don’t need him at all and he needs me and that’s a good place to be in a negotiation.” Jones said

I think he's gonna fight Tom and Perreira. The pay will be too good to turn down. He's gonna get like 15 mill per fight, that's a lot of money to retire on and hard to turn down.

But we'll see who first.

Jon said the same thing about a Reyes rematch and fighting Francis and neither happened so I doubt it. Jon only just signed a new long term contract before the Gane fight that both he and Dana were bragging was the biggest in UFC HW history so I really don't think UFC are going to offer a much higher number. Jones has never been a massive draw like Conor or Brock.

 

[Streeter]

Alex at 2o5 is a better fight anyway

 

[Conor_Is_Overrated]

I's rather watch Jones vs Pereira.

Fam y shuld he bro need fi scrap wif anime characters an' wild beast just fi have challenges in him life just ask chatgbt

Q: yo fam imagine a adult female lion, The Big Show DBZ Fused with Andre the Giant, Israel Adesanya from the Naruto universe, Krillin from DBZ, A silverback gorilla, Ngannou, Tom Aspinall and Jon Jones walk into a room who finna walk oot?

The Contenders:​

1. Adult Female Lion: A deadly predator—fast, powerful, and skilled at killing, though slightly smaller than a tiger.
2. The Big Show fused with Andre the Giant (Big Andre Show): A 14-foot, 900-pound behemoth. Think pure brute strength, DBZ-style tanking, but mobility is suspect.
3. Naruto Israel Adesanya: Armed with ninja techniques, shadow clones, and chakra-enhanced strikes. Expect sneaky tactics and devastating jutsu.
4. Krillin (DBZ): A Z-Fighter with legit martial arts skills, energy blasts, and destructo discs. Sure, he’s the butt of DBZ jokes, but he’s still absurdly strong by human standards.
5. Silverback Gorilla: The ultimate wrecking machine—pound-for-pound raw strength and zero mercy.
6. Francis Ngannou: A human wrecking ball with nuclear power in both hands. A single punch could end lives.
7. Tom Aspinall: Quick, technical, and one of the smartest MMA heavyweights out there.
8. Jon Jones: The GOAT of MMA. Dirty tactics, elite skills, and the fight IQ to thrive in chaos.

The Battle Breakdown:​

Round 1: Absolute Pandemonium​

• Lion vs. Gorilla:
  The lion charges the gorilla, clawing and biting ferociously. The gorilla grabs the lion by the neck, slams it into the ground, and finishes it with ground-and-pound. Lion’s out.
• Big Andre Show’s Entrance:
  Big Andre Show casually swats away Ngannou like he’s swatting a fly. Ngannou tries to land a bomb, but Big Andre Show’s sheer size and DBZ-level strength shrug it off. Andre Show palm-slams Ngannou through the wall. Ngannou’s out.
• Krillin vs. Adesanya:
  Krillin fires off energy blasts, but Naruto Adesanya uses shadow clones to evade and counter. Adesanya’s chakra-enhanced kicks keep Krillin at bay, but Krillin lands a sneaky Destructo Disc, slicing through Adesanya’s toad summon. Adesanya retreats for now.
• Aspinall vs. Gorilla:
  Aspinall uses his speed and grappling to evade the gorilla, but the gorilla’s raw strength is too much. A brutal backhand sends Aspinall flying into the lion’s remains. Aspinall’s out.

---

Round 2: Superhuman Showdowns​

• Krillin vs. Gorilla:
  Krillin charges up and fires a Kamehameha, vaporizing the gorilla mid-charge. Gorilla’s out.
  Krillin celebrates, but Big Andre Show lumbers toward him.
• Big Andre Show vs. Krillin:
  Krillin fires energy blasts, but Big Andre Show tanks them, grabs Krillin mid-air, and delivers a DBZ-style chokeslam. Krillin’s out.
• Adesanya vs. Jon Jones:
  Jones pokes Adesanya in the eye (classic), but Adesanya counters with a shadow clone feint into a chakra-infused spinning kick. Jones gets rocked but survives, using his reach and wrestling to slow Adesanya down.

---

Final Round: Big Andre Show vs. Adesanya vs. Jones​

1. Adesanya’s Last Stand:
   Adesanya summons a massive toad jutsu, but Big Andre Show punches the toad into dust. Adesanya goes all out with chakra strikes and ninja tricks, but Andre Show grabs him mid-attack and powerbombs him through the floor. Adesanya’s out.
2. Jon Jones vs. Big Andre Show:
   Jones is terrified but uses his fight IQ to stay at range. He targets Andre Show’s legs with oblique kicks and repeatedly gouges his eyes. Big Andre Show swats at Jones like a fly but starts slowing down from the damage.
   Finally, Jones lands a flying elbow to the temple and wraps a guillotine choke around the giant’s massive neck. It takes forever, but Big Andre Show collapses.

---

Winner: Jon Jones​

Once again, Jones thrives in chaos. He survives DBZ-level destruction and somehow outlasts the insanity.

MVPs of the Fight:​

1. Big Andre Show: Took out Ngannou, Krillin, and Adesanya like a god of destruction.
2. Krillin: Eliminated the gorilla and put up a solid fight before getting powerbombed.
3. Jon Jones: The ultimate survivor, proving dirty tactics and elite skill always win.

As Dana White said about Oscar De La Hoya, "cocaine ain't cheap".

Don't under-estimate Jon's drive to make bank before retiring. If Dana offers him $15-20 million to fight Aspinall, he might just take it.

 

[MMAJunkie]

Jones is saying he won't fight Aspinall. Maybe concentrate on that.

If you don't think this is about money. I don't know what to tell you.

How many generations of fighters do you want him to beat?
Pay the man.

tom is unqualified. jones said he would drop the belt. thats not part of the argument. unless they pay jon absurd money hes not keeping the title. he should not play their game

The interim heavyweight title holder is unqualified to unify the titles.... Riiiiiiiiight. The man holding one of the belts is unqualified to unify them.

Do you Jones dick riders even hear yourselves? Lol

 

[SpamuraiSensei]

No one thought Gane was going to beat him. Gane lost to a 1 legged Francis.

Most of Jones big wins were against retiring LHW. His other wins were with heavy roiding, and eye pokes.

The majority here thought Gane had his number. I remember it clearly. You can even scroll back and look. Jones has beaten everyone that was put in front of him. He's cleaned out his division multiple times.

Most people that post here are 13 year olds that watch the WWE and the UFC. Gane got taken down by a 1 legged Francis. Jones wasn't going to have any issues.

There is 2-3 fights that he should have lost. First fight against Gus being the main one. He poked him in the eye 4 times to win that one. He also failed 3 drug tests. In no legit sport would a 4 time drug cheat be called the best.

 

[Neck&Neck]

I’d rather watch Alex vs Tom

 

[ThaiSexPills]

Lol.
Already making excuses.
Jones just said once again to the world...pay me Jake Paul/ Mayweather money.
Funny that UFC can lowball a fighter yet it's the fighters fault for not fighting.

He said the same thing about Francis. That fight never happened but suddenly after Francis left, Jon was fine with the money and couldn’t get back fast enough.

 

[ThaiSexPills]

tom is unqualified. jones said he would drop the belt. thats not part of the argument. unless they pay jon absurd money hes not keeping the title. he should not play their game

Who’s more qualified than Tom? LOL.

The HW belt is not a LHW lifetime achievement award. You don’t just get to have it and keep it because you were a good LHW long ago.

The levels of insanity Jones is bringing out of people is hard to believe sometimes. “Tom is unqualified”. LOL ok but Jon said he was interested in fighting Derrick Lewis and he just beat up an old man who was retired.

 

[wisdom blows]

Jon has already fought everyone and paid his dues. He's been at the champ lvl for over 14 years. If he wants to take easy legacy building and money fights, he should. He deserves it.
Beating Aspinall does nothing for his brand. You all said Ciryl Gane was the guy to beat him. "He's too fast, he's a much better striker, Jones has trouble with guys like him". Look how that turned out.

Father time is undefeated. Let him fight who he wants.

He should, he just needs to vacate the belt.

 

[wisdom blows]

If you don't think this is about money. I don't what to tell you.

How many generations of fighters do you want him to beat?
Pay the man.

Why didn’t he want big money for Gane? He only priced himself out for Francis and now Tom. Interesting.

 

[VAfan]

I don't see him fighting Tom.

He'll probably try to fight Pereira and then retire.

this is the most likely outcome. with the crazy reach he probably figures he's got a chance again alex but i can't imagine him going anywhere near aspinall, regardless of what he said post fight with all the adrenaline still rushing and all.

why do people keep arguing with me like this are you an idiot. jon said hes vacating and then everyone is pushing for the idiot fight with tom.
