Listen if Jones,

Half the people on Sherdog (yes, half - there's a poll you can dig up if you care to do so) thought Gane was going to win. The "he was obviously the weakest opponent Jones could have taken" argument didn't come up until afterward.
Whether or not people thought he could win doesn't mean he wasn't the top contender most vulnerable to Jones' wrestling. Learn how facts work.
Jones is "retired, aging" as well.
Yeah, that's why he's fighting the person he thinks is the easiest match-up for him.
And Stipe is still better than most of the UFC HW roster. People are just assuming he's not because he hasn't fought in a while, but there's no actual evidence of it.
That's what happens when you lose your last match and stop fighting for years.
And he won't engage in one with Aspinall, either. He'll stay on the outside and pick Aspinall apart like he does with everyone. He's certainly not going to stand right in front of him to get hit with a haymaker; that's never been Jones's style, and it's the reason his chin has held up - he's incredibly hard to hit cleanly.
Love your fanfic, needs a unicorn.
That even if you sink in a deep submission, Jones will just shake you off and finish you with a submission of his own?
Cool. Let's see him do that with a real HW contender.
Never. But he has experience in managing his energy and effort in a way that Aspinall hasn't, and that's still going to transfer over.
That sounds like a sane and rational way to ignore the extra 40lbs he's carrying.
 
IIRC Jones said or tweeted something of the sort once — that he might continue to fight depending on how things go in the Stipe bout. But that means jackshit. Pick through Jones' statements carefully enough and you can find every proclamation contradicted somewhere else.

JBJ will ask for fight at 42 because he will be broke or facing jail time again
