Tom Aspinall is basically 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 instantly and referred to as bullsh*t on the rumor.
Nonetheless, Rogan’s one remark in regards to the struggle instantly made waves, proving as soon as once more that fighters, followers, and analysts alike are determined to see two of the perfect MMA athletes on the planet compete in opposition to each other.
Proper now, Aspinall is a slight favourite to return out on high 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 practice, 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 mentioned. “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 are able to verify that Cejudo will step again contained in the Octagon on February 22 when the UFC heads again to Seattle, Washington.
In the principle occasion of the night, Cejudo will sq. off with No. 8 ranked contender Track Yadong. The co-main occasion may 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.
