Tom Aspinall is admittedly good, however Jon Jones is simply too sensible.
Since then, Rogan has backtracked on his assertion after UFC CEO Dana White reportedly referred to as him up straight and referred to as bullsh*t on the rumor.
Nonetheless, Rogan’s one remark concerning the combat instantly made waves, proving as soon as once more that fighters, followers, and analysts alike are determined to see two of the most effective MMA athletes on the planet compete in opposition to each other.
Proper now, Aspinall is a slight favourite to come back out on prime within the yet-to-be-announced unification conflict, however former champ-champ Henry Cejudo doesn’t essentially see it that method.
Cejudo thinks Aspinall is sweet, however not adequate to beat Jon Jones
Talking on his Pound-4-Pound podcast alongside Kamaru Usman, ‘Triple C’ revealed that after seeing Aspinall prepare, he needed to admit that whereas the Brit is fairly rattling good, he’s not adequate to beat the GOAT.
“Heavyweight, I’m going Jon Jones, bro,” Cejudo stated. “I watched a little bit of Tom Aspinall yesterday. Really, really good. But Jones is just too smart, bro.”
We might not know precisely when Jones vs. Aspinall will go down, however we will affirm that Cejudo will step again contained in the Octagon on February 22 when the UFC heads again to Seattle, Washington.
In the primary occasion of the night, Cejudo will sq. off with No. 8 ranked contender Music Yadong. The co-main occasion will even see the return of one other former champion as Dominick Cruz faces Rob Font. Will probably be Cruz’s first time competing since an August 2022 loss to Marlon ‘Chito’ Vera.
