Dmitriy Kel Aug. 10, 2024, 3:26 a.m.

UFC lightweight champion Islam Makhachev has called on UFC management to arrange a bout between full and interim heavyweight division champions Jon Jones and Tom Aspinall.

"I want to see Aspinall fight Jon Jones. Aspinall owns the interim belt and has even made a defense of it. And he still has no real title, even though he's beaten his last two opponents in, what, two minutes?

It's time for Aspinall to fight for the belt. Tom deserves it. He's very good and still young. This guy is hungry and is one of the most dangerous fighters in the world," Makhachev said.
