During the post-UFC 309 press conference, Jon Jones made it clear that there is only one way he will consider fighting Tom Aspinall in the Octagon. The event took place at Madison Square Garden, where Jones successfully defended his UFC Heavyweight Championship against Stipe Miocic with a technical knockout.
Following Miocic’s immediate retirement from the UFC, Jones is now focusing on his next opponent. While hinting at a potential super-fight against Aspinall, the Interim Heavyweight Champion, Jones emphasized the need for discussions with UFC President Dana White before any decisions are made.
Although Jones vs Aspinall is a highly anticipated match by fans, Jones had been hesitant about the idea leading up to UFC 309. However, his stance seems to have shifted after the victory over Miocic.
In the post-fight press conference, Jones outlined his conditions for the potential fight with Aspinall, stating that he would retire if those demands are not met. He expressed his willingness to walk away from the heavyweight belt if necessary, emphasizing the importance of being properly compensated for the fight.
Jones stated, “I want to be compensated to the point where, if I won or lost, it really wouldn’t matter. Or else, my life is perfect without him. I don’t need him at all. But he needs me.”
With negotiations looming, the possibility of Jones facing Aspinall in the Octagon is gaining traction, sparking excitement among UFC fans. Stay tuned for updates on this potential blockbuster matchup. Please provide the sentence or phrase you would like me to rewrite.
