"He chooses an easier fight for more money." Aspinall touches on Jones again

Not so long ago Tom Aspinall, the interim UFC heavyweight champion, promised the current champion Jon Jones leave him alone and don’t think about him on social networks anymore. But Tom didn’t last long. Today he discussed why “Bones” doesn’t want to fight him, but chooses Miocic.

“Jon Jones is smart. He chooses an easier fight for more money. The guy will probably get a lot more money for the Stipe fight. Moreover, this fight will be much easier for him. Jones doesn't think he needs to fight a young, dangerous fighter who doesn't have millions to his name. He prefers to fight Stipe, 40, who hasn't fought in four years. Obviously this is true. But “anyone with a brain would have done the same,” Aspinall said.
