Jon Jones, UFC heavyweight champion, shared his opinion on the first fight between Tom Aspinall and Curtis Blades.
"Today I watched the first fight between Tom and Curtis. Honestly, it was the first time I watched it. He got his ass kicked. The knee injury was the best thing that could have happened to him. One important thing I've learned over the years is you can never bet against American fighters. I'll laugh the loudest if Tom loses again. Just look at this fight again. Tom lost almost every exchange. Curtis was getting to his chin from the start of the fight. It's not about the injury, it's about your guy getting caught. Even when he injured his knee, he was still getting hit in the face. That's what I see...," Jones wrote on social media.
As a reminder, Aspinall lost to the Blades by TKO. He suffered a knee injury and was unable to continue the bout.
