Fans are pushing UFC President Dana White to make the highly anticipated super fight between Jon Jones and Tom Aspinall a reality. Jones has already cemented his status as the UFC’s GOAT, while Aspinall has quickly risen to fame as one of the division’s brightest stars. However, following the UFC’s recent announcement of the International Fight Week schedule, fans couldn’t hold back and began demanding Jones vs. Aspinall.
In previous years, fans have seen ‘Bones’ Jones compete during International Fight Week, leading many to believe he might fight again this time. However, the heavyweight champion has shown more interest in retirement. Meanwhile, Tom Aspinall has repeatedly called out Jones, hoping for a showdown. Following the recent International Fight Week announcement, one fan summed up the excitement, commenting, “Jon Jones vs. Aspinall, Du Plessis vs. Khamzat—make it happen!”

Joe Rogan Shuts Down $30M Jon Jones Fight Rumor
Fans were eager for a Jon Jones vs. Tom Aspinall showdown, but Joe Rogan just dropped a major update. Following Jones’ win over Stipe Miocic at UFC 309, Rogan defended him, calling him the GOAT and insisting he doesn’t need to follow the usual rules. He suggested Jones take 6-8 months off, even up to a year, without pressure, and return whenever he’s ready for a title fight.
“Give the man all the time he wants. He could fight whenever he wants to fight. That’s Jon Jones—he’s the GOAT. So leave him alone. If he decides one day to come back and wants to fight Tom Aspinall for the heavyweight title, let him do it.” Rogan said.
Rogan shut down rumors of a Jones vs. Tom Aspinall superfight, calling it unlikely. However, with no official word from Jones, fans are still waiting for his confirmation.
