Jones would rather fight Pereira than Aspinall

Aspinall would wreck Jones, and it’s obvious Jones knows this.

Like with Ngannou, he claimed he wanted to fight Frankie, but wouldn’t move up until LITERALLY the same day Frankie announced he was leaving the UFC.

Neither Tom or Frank are gonna be afraid of Jones like Cyril was, dude was petrified.

Yup exactly. Jones would have a far easier time with Alex than Aspinall.

I’m a massive AP fan but JBJ would finish him by Sub in round 1 or 2

You are right. Still want to see it because Alex might catch him. Also due to his ego Jones might just stand with him the whole fight.

No way, Aspinall’s ground game is crazy good.

I have him subbing jones! And Jones has been my favorite fighter for 15 years lol

lol

As much control as Dana has. He has to answer to the TKO corporate gods now, just look at Power Slap.
Jones moving back to LHW (where he looked slow AF in his last 2 fights) seems unlikely. If he fights Alex at HW, Jones’ wrestling could give him the edge and then he retires. If that happens they’re nuking Alex who’s their biggest current star. I think it’s the least profitable fight long term that they want.

Jones is at the end of his career, he has earned the right to hand pick his opponents

If he vacates the belt yes.

I think he can call the shots. He has the leverage.

You may not like it or think its fair, it isnt. Jon is the money man and puts asses in seats. Aspinall needs to wait

Cant be the GOAT if youre handpicking all your fights and the UFC is always pampering and catering to you.

I have news for you, life ain’t fair.

No one said it was, but its also not supposed to always favor one person then call him the GOAT when hes been given every opportunity to succeed.
