The Heavyweight division is in an interesting spot in the UFC currently. It has an undisputed champion and an interim champion in Jon Jones and Tom Aspinall. The duo is not going to collide in the cage anytime soon. Aspinall is all set to defend his interim title against formidable opponent Curtis Blaydes in UFC 304.
Many might think Aspinall must be in camp to win his bout against Blaydes. But as it turns out, the Englishman made a worrying admission recently.
Tom Aspinall makes a worrying statement
Tom Aspinall is only the third Englishman of all time to get his hands on UFC gold in the cage. He will be taking on Curtis Blaydes in the co-main event of the UFC 304, which is set to take place in Manchester, England. In an interview, Aspinall claimed,
I don’t know. I have no idea what I am doing at this point.
Tom Aspinall revealed that he is confused about everything going around him currently. He admitted that he needed to speak to a few folks to get his life and training camp in order. Aspinall revealed he is not sure what he is doing in his daily life at the moment. He claimed that he is going to try and change his schedule to see what suits him before his big day on the main card of the UFC 304.
The English fans will be worried about their star in the cage. Curtis Blaydes is a seasoned veteran who can take on and beat anyone in the octagon. Tom previously finished his Russian counterpart Sergei Palovich in the first round in the interim fight. The Brit has previously called out undisputed Heavyweight champion Jon Jones on multiple occasions in the octagon. With a win over Blaydes, the UFC might give the Englishman an undisputed title shot.
