Former UFC light heavyweight title challenger Anthony Smith commented on the proposal of the interim champion in the heavyweight division Tom Aspinall deprive Jon Jones full-length belt in the same category.

Recall that Jones gave a tough answer to this call, after which Aspinall decided to apologize.

“I hate saying good things about Jon Jones. But John can do whatever he wants. He deserved it. Jones is not someone who avoids fights. He is always ready to fight with the best. He and Miocic have the right to sort things out among themselves. They both deserve this opportunity,” Smith was quoted as saying by MMA Junkie.
