Tom Aspinall’s Dad Expresses Frustration Over Jon Jones Delay
Tom Aspinall’s father, Andy, has once again voiced his frustration over the delay in his son’s fight against Jon Jones for the UFC Heavyweight Championship. Despite the desire for the matchup, Aspinall is open to fighting someone else to stay active while waiting for Jones.
In a recent video on his YouTube channel, Andy Aspinall criticized the UFC’s decision to wait for Jones, stating, “It’s stupid. I have no idea the reason why the UFC don’t want Tom to fight anybody else other than Jon Jones.”
Andy expressed confusion over Jones not confirming his next fight, calling for the former champion to make a decision. This isn’t the first time Andy has spoken out about the situation, previously referring to Jones as “another bum in the shower.”
While rumors circulated about Aspinall facing Ciryl Gane next, UFC CEO Dana White remains hopeful for a Jones vs. Aspinall matchup this year. Jones last fought in November 2024, defeating Stipe Miocic, but has yet to confirm his next opponent.
Stay tuned for updates on the potential Jon Jones vs. Tom Aspinall showdown in the UFC.
