Should Aspirnal stay active and call out Gane?

[icemun]

If Jones is too afraid to fight the mighty Tom-


Should Tom stay active and call out other fighters instead of sitting around waiting for the champ to acknowledge him?

Gane is still ranked #2 and the next viable contender while Tom has stated he the baddest man at HW.





Can Tom take him?

 

[Thy]

It's prolly his next best move.

 

[BigNick100]

Who cares about Big Tom?

 

[WoozyFailGuy]

Tom should just keep doin what he's doing.
Stay in shape, train, and keep calling Jon a duck. Inevitably, the UFC will need a fuckin HW title fight.

 

[Juzie]

He should go to PFL. Gives the fans a fight they wanna see.

Teach UFC a lesson for sucking the cock of the ones that dont suck back.

 

[Rampage_Jackson]

If you think Tom should defend the interim belt again you are a bigger bozo than the people making decisions for the UFC

 

[torturescorcher]

No! Dana White should force Jones to fight Tom within 2 months or lose the belt. Jones has no right to hold up the rest of the division vying for the title. Tom is #1 and so is the fight to make.

 

[Megatronlee]

Yes. But I think he’s scared

 

[NoSmilez]

Just keep it moving. The interim still allows him to get PPV points. Tom is healthy and in his prime now. There is no point waiting for someone who is halfway retired and looking for a money fight.

 

[Ginja_Ninja]

He should be non stop calling out Gane and/or Almeida for the Undisputed HW Title

If Jones doesn't want to fight, send me anyone else.

 

[spinitch]

Fight Gane and Stipe if necessary. Jones is in no rush to fight again. Make some money before age declines sinks in.

They've publicly already said that.

 

[Ginja_Ninja]

I know but he needs to change the entire narrative to this.

Stop speaking Jones name and start calling out the rest of the division for the vacant title.

 

[mkess101]

The same people:

"Jones has the leverage. He's the star and the A side and he will drag this out in negotiations as long as he has to in order get what he wants. Or he'll walk, he doesn't need Aspinall, because Tom is a nobody. Aspinall has zero say in how this plays out, he has no leverage at all."

Then...

"Tom should tell the multi billion dollar corporation that employs him to abandon their plans for a mega fight that will make them a boatload of money so that he can stay active and fight someone else. He should 'put pressure' on them by being verbal about it."

When your employer tells you "STFU about fighting someone else. We are getting the Jones fight done, it will get you a big payday and stardom, etc"...what is someone in Tom's place gonna do? He hasn't made millions yet. The UFC have shown they'll throw ANYONE under the bus. And he doesn't have the leverage yet to even test them. He's not gonna fuck himself by turning into a malcontent unless he's a moron.

 

[Morris88]

He should fight Gane and it should be for the Undisputed strap. Tom should look at how Chandler wasted his last couple of good years waiting for Conor as a cautionary tale.

Calling for a UD fight with someone else does not take the Jones fight off the table. It puts more pressure on the timeline and on Jones to sign or vacate. Jones is so egocentric that the best thing Aspinall can do is completely disregard him now and act as though he already retired. If Jones finally does sign then great.

That's the point. He was saying it. And was told to shut up by the people who pay him.

 

[Versez]

Tom needs to fight, call Gane.

 

[Mick Dojang]

Only if its confirmed he's not fighting Jones

Otherwise he'll fight Gane and suddenly Jones will want to fight at short notice right after
