UFC CEO Dana White has spoken out about Tom Aspinall, the promotion's interim heavyweight champion.

"There's no doubt that Tom Aspinall is a fearsome fighter and he's the future of the heavyweight division. But so far he's only just climbing the ladder of his career. Everyone says, 'He deserves this, he deserves that.' But he hasn't earned anything yet. Yes, he looks cool and he'll probably get his way. But we have Stipe [Miocic] and Jon Jones, who have already made a name for themselves. They've fought everybody they can fight. So they deserve to have their fight. Whichever one of them wins, they have to fight Aspinall. They'll have to give Tom a chance," White said in a release on Kevin Ayoola's YouTube channel.
