Dana White, UFC CEO, spoke about the promotion's future heavyweight champion Tom Aspinall. The functionary said that he was ready to organize Tom’s belt defense if he wanted to fight. At the same time, Dana noted that Aspinall’s opponents will not be Jones and Miocic.
“Aspinall can fight again. Let's see how everything turns out in 2024. But Jones and Stipe deserved to fight each other. Jones is injured, nothing can be done about it. If Aspinall wants to fight, we'll give him a title defense."
