Daniel Cormier Weighs In On Dana White’s Promise Of Jon Jones vs. Tom Aspinall In 2025
The UFC is setting the stage for a massive 2025, with rumors of a heavyweight title unification bout between Jones and Aspinall heating up. Following Jones’ dominant victory over Stipe Miocic at UFC 309, Dana White guaranteed the fight, and Daniel Cormier believes it’s a done deal. Cormier also speculated that this could be Jones’ final fight, revealing the UFC offered him a huge payday:
“It tells me that they’ve given Jon Jones a number big enough to get it done. Because I always thought that Jones was kind of negotiating publicly. I don’t think for a second he’s afraid of anyone. I think that he was kind of going. And I want a number so big that I’m going to ride off into the sunset and be done.”
Jones previously mentioned that he wanted a much higher number, ensuring that whether he wins or loses wouldn’t affect him financially. While the future of the fight remains uncertain, fans will have to wait for the official confirmation.
