UFC Heavyweight Champion John Jones assessed the likelihood of a duel with Tom Aspinall in future.

“There are a lot of young and great fighters in the division. These guys are destroying their opponents in the first round, but I have to look at it all as a business. Make decisions not out of pride, but from the point of view of heritage and business.

If hardcore fans know these guys, great. But in the end, I will have to fight fighters that the whole public is delighted with. When you're in my place, there will always be a challenge from a younger guy and everyone wants to see how I handle it.

Tom Aspinall has the potential to do something special. Most of our division will have a hard time beating him,” Jones said in an interview with the OverDogs Podcast.

Recall that on November 11 at UFC 295 in New York, USA, Jones will defend his title in a fight with Stipe Miocic.
