Interim UFC Heavyweight Champion Tom Aspinall offered his perspective on why the undisputed champion, Jon Jones, may not be eager to fight him.
“I`m not sure I can speak about money on camera,” Aspinall stated in a recent interview with Johnson. “To be honest, I believe I pose a challenging matchup for him, and he`s aware of that. I understand Jones`s perspective, but for me, the title is paramount. I want that belt, simple as that. Nothing else is important. I just want to demonstrate that I am the best.”
Before securing the interim title, Aspinall experienced a period of inactivity following his quick knockout victory over Curtis Blaydes.
