While it seems that Jon Jones doesn’t want to fight Tom Aspinall, he does acknowledge the Englishman’s skills.


Jones has stalled the Ultimate Fighting Championship heavyweight title picture, neither vacating his belt nor fighting interim champ Aspinall. However, Jones recently included Aspinall in his “dream team” of three fighters.

Dirty Boxing recently posted a fantasy contest to build a dream team with virtual currency, including three fighters picked from a curated list. The fighters were listed in three different tiers worth $5, $3 and $2:

$5: Mike Perry, part owner of Dirty Boxing, former UFC fighter Yoel Romero and heavyweight champ Jones.
$3: Former UFC light heavyweight champ Alex Pereira, former featherweight champs Ilia Topuria and Max Holloway.
$2: Rising UFC star Paddy Pimblett, Aspinall and superstar Conor McGregor.

Bones picked Romero from the first tier, followed by Pereira and Aspinall from the second and third, respectively.

Dirty Boxing Championship 2 is set to go down June 14 in Miami. The card will be headlined by former UFC heavyweight contender Jairzinho Rozenstruik and bareknuckle ace Devon Schwan. Romero, Perry, and Renato “Money” Moicano will be calling the card.

UFC vets Alex Caceres, Phil Hawes, and Francisco Trinaldo will also compete at DBX 2.

[Bobby Boulders]

Jones is just a sociopath, doing sociopathic things

 

[FloydMayweatherMMA]

I mean, if the choice of 'who is most likely to be of assistance in a fight' was Aspinall or two manlets, I'd pick Tom over both of them put together.

 

[CasualBot]

This legitimately makes no sense.

A dream team for what... Basketball?

 

[WillyWarminski]

Such an odd set-up idea

Reminds me of when Kevin Nash or Scott Hall were asked about people with whom they supposedly had bad blood and they'd always say they didn't remember or that they never had a problem with that person.

 

[Thy]

kinda weird dumb game.... but why'd he pick yoel over himself?

 

[Uber_Noober]

He’s been smoking them tweeds again

Irking him?

"Hey I'd choose you to be on my team in this weird hypothetical fight scenario thing. "

"Uhh...cool?"

Pretty sure none of that would ever irk any fighter...ever.

 

[Luthien]

Meanwhile Tom is out there trying to sell his shoes or whatever to survive

 

[Arm Barbarian]

He's trying to placate Tom to stop calling him out for being the duck of all ducks.

Toms drooling for Jon to even mention his name, especially for a fight, and he comes out with this to make headlines with

Keeping Tom on ice and making sure he don’t cum too early

Yea, I think it irks him a bit

Me thinks you're reading into it a bit much. At this point everyone knows the clock is ticking on Jonny and he's gonna have to decide soon. A few months ago when a summer fight was a possibility? Maybe. Now? I think almost everyone (including Jones and Tom) know it's gonna be MSG in the fall or Jones retires. The drama is decreasing, not increasing.

Yeah, he’s really showing us all by nuking his legacy and becoming the laughing stock of MMA for… some reason we’re not smart enough to understand?
