UFC broadcaster Jon Anik predicts Jon Jones' next fight will be at heavyweight, potentially a unification bout with Tom Aspinall.

Of Tom Aspinall's three professional defeats, only one can be counted as entirely legitimate. The British heavyweight phenom suffered a knee injury TKO against Curtis Blaydes in just 15 seconds back in 2022 and was previously disqualified for an illegal 12-6 elbow in 2016.

Francis Ngannou thinks Jon Jones doesn't need to fight Tom Aspinall. UFC heavyweight champion Jones (28-1 MMA, 22-1 UFC) received plenty of criticism for not wanting to unify his belt with interim champ Aspinall.

Francis Ngannou challenged UFC star Jon Jones to a fight that would determine the top heavyweight fighter in MMA. "We both want this fight, for sure,"

Tom Aspinall did not have to utter a single word to become the talk of UFC 309 fight week. Traveling with his father and lifelong coach, U.K. martial arts pioneer Andy Aspinall, the duo presented themselves in New York to fulfill the interim champion’s obligation as backup fighter to Jon Jones vs.

Jon Jones' comments that he would retire after UFC 309 appear to have faded by the wayside as he says he will fight in 2025, though still does not want to face Tom Aspinall.

Jon Jones vs. Tom Aspinall is one of, if not the biggest fight the UFC can make in 2025. The consensus among fans is that Aspinall is unparalleled for speed, knockout power, and finishing instinct inside the UFC's heavyweight division.

Jon Jones says he will compete in the UFC next year, raising hopes fans will finally see the Tom Aspinall fight. Jones made the first defense of his UFC Heavyweight Title by stopping Stipe Miocic at UFC 309 in the third round.
