Media Tom Aspinall apologizes to Jon ! UPDATE ! Clarification and confirmation of sincerity

[Goutfather]

he didn’t have anything to apologize for. i don’t think jon should be stripped, but aspinall is free to speak. nobody is above criticism, even the “old lion.”

 

[CPH]

You are an unrealistic, fukking idiot/

Aspinall is on the rise. I agree, he would be the favorite against Jones ... but that doesn't mean he has EARNED THE RIGHT TO FACE Jones.

Aspinall hasn't really done shit.
Hasn't beaten a single Champion.
Lost previously (to a multi-loser), won over a NON-CHAMPION (who QUIT TO a NON-CHAMPION in Overeem).

Meanwhile, Jones has beaten the "Who's Who" for nearly 2 decades.

Just sit down and shut your dumb ass up.

If you were Jon Jones, you wouldn't waste your time facing a kid like Aspinall ... when you could end your career facing an all-time great like Stipe.

Honestly, be real, just shut TF up.

Thanks.

Jon can face Stipe if he wants. The point is that, if he wants to do this, then he should be stripped, allowing the HW division to move on.

Tom got a message from Dana

 

[CPH]

Aspinall totally dismantles any and all of Jon's feeble arguments here

He is offering to fight Stipe while Jon recovers. Checkmate.

Sad to see people dont get the sarcasm.

 

[Brit_Brawler]

Tom should remind jon that all that matters right now is heavyweight. We all know jon is the man, probably the best ever but at lhw. He has zero wins over HW legends and one win at heavyweight. Tom has way more wins in the division.
None of them beat the champ. I don't really consider either the true champ but there's nothing can be done about that. Francis is gone. The best we can get is the " champ" and the " interim champ" Duke it out to make an undisputed. I think that's fair. They are by by far the most skilled and likely best ufc Hws .

 

[Tchernobog]

Lol, everybody crying sarcasm now that Tom's bent the knee to Jon

 

[13Seconds]

what's flied ? "it flew over your head" is the correct one

It flew over your head. Sorry @Koya

 

[Substance Abuse]

And he would still beat Jones' ass right now.

Beating Jones' ass while he's recovering from injury isn't a good look, imo.

[Royce's Gi]

Kinda lame to admit defeat like that. Aspinall has a legit claim to be the undisputed champ if Jones doesn't fight for a full year and plans to fight stipe next instead of the interim champ. That's what's the most revolting imo

I believe it's sarcasm from Aspinall.

Neither is Beating off on Jones' ass while he is recovering

 

[fortheo]

Truth hurts.

Jon has one fight at HW against a stylistically favorable opponent .Aspinall has done way, way more and is the real HW champ. Jon doesn't want to prove he is actually the best HW. He just wants an easy pay day and get the hell out of there before he actually has to face a real challenge. HW champ is supposed to be the baddest man on the planet. The baddest man doesn't try to fight old men who haven't been relevant in years, they fight other guys who have a possible claim to being the baddest man.

Don't let your fanboyism blind you.

Not only does jon only have one win at hw and no defenses, but he also only has one fight in nearly 4 years.

 

[mangokush]

That is not is an apology

Tom actually needs to apologise to Jon this way...

It only became a “stylistically favourable match-up” after he got ran over

Aspinall would be everything jones said he is after Jones destroyed him “inexperienced” “who has he even beat”

Heavy goalpost moving

Jones hasn't beaten a champion at HW either. If Jones wants to use his legend status to fight a Stipe that's clearly past his expiration date then he should give up the title and focus on that. Someone that hasn't won a fight in about four years isn't a valid title defense anyway and no one relevant will treat it as such anyway. Only highly overemotional fans will, which I guess is you given how much emotional language you've consistently used in a single page in this thread. Idolizing people is only cute in children.

 

[Marko Polo]

In the end, Jon is right.

And Aspinall knows it.

Aspinall = a young boy in a Lion's world. He hasn't really done fuckall.

Beat an overrated can in Pavlovich (who was also routed by non-Champion Overeem previously).

For a young prepubescent boy, to talk shit to Jon Jones is a bit much.

Even if Aspinall could beat Jones, he still hasn't done enough to be mentioned in the same sentence as Jones.

It's good that Aspinall realizes he needs to sit down, and shaddap, in respect to his elders.

Especially the greatest combatant in UFC history.

Jones has earned the right to select a fellow-LEGEND in Stipe.

Aspinall has "earned nothing" ... other than to face "another contender" ...

I thought you saved your sus hyperbole for Poatan only. Apparently no one is safe

Heavy goalpost moving

Nope, as Jon said himself and all his fans agreed with him, Gane is the most incomplete fighter in the top 5, he is bad on the ground and Jon's wrestling is what would be his weakness. This was before the fight.




That second part is just your fantasy, bud. Impossible for there to be any goalpost moving if the fight hasn't happened yet. That's you just making shit up.
