Is Aspinall that good? I fell out of watching UFC/MMA and people are talking like he's Jones kryptonite. If his takedown defense isn't A1 he's gonna lose.

You dont have to have A1 takedown defense at HW plus Jones is pushing 40....If you have decent acticvity and hands you could give JJ issues....Stipe was just damn old and slow he never went forward and was throwing slap punches when he did....Ngannou/Aspnall def have the hands and aggression that would cause Jones issues at heavyweight...

Jones i thought looked kinda slow on his feet but fortunately he fought a guy who chose to be target practice....His legacy is important to Dana White and thats why you saw UFC not give him to Ngannou and only started yapping it about once he left....

Low-key Tom Aspinall should run down his UFC contract and go get a massive bag from PFL. Even if he fights Jon there's no one else for him to fight in the UFC :yeshrug:

I don't mind dude being MAGA, it's something I can never be, but I understand the appeal for these alpha male dudes or whatever.

Or rather, I understand how they see MAGA as anti whatever is being peddled by the democratic party, which sort of looks down on alpha male subcultures and is often hostile to men who don't completely agree with their shyt politics.

I get it.

But I don't get the fukking pandering. Say hello to the guy and move on.
There’s been less than 50 presidents and it’s like being a super celebrity

It’s something that people tell their kids when they saw a mere glimpse of one

Also emotions run high after a fight it’s a surreal situation that’s magnified

Even if you have hands and aggression you have to stay far away from Jones cause if he gets hands on em he can wrestle em and beat em up either against the fence or on the ground. Jones has so many ways of beating someone.

Nah it's one thing to acknowledge or shake hands with the president but Jones was all over the top with it. That was some straight c00ning shyt.

I thnk at HW is much slower and older you can nullify if you get in close and spar with him i dont think hes got great striking skills for a HW....I think Ngannou or Aspinall are in his kitchen trying to make it a stand up fight which i dont think favors Jones at this point in his career....

I hear you but Jones isn't like an Anderson Silva, he caters his gameplan to your skillset. Against Ciryl Gane he wasn't on the feet for even a minute.

people in here really forgot that he's a dope fiend, scumbag, hit and run savant, abuser, etc :russ: of COURSE he's shouting out el presidente
Breh, I begrudgingly give Jones his props, but I never liked that nikka :scust: To this day I stand by Anderson Silva being the GOAT:unimpressed:

If he beats him they going to have another guy for him to fight

Mayweather was going through the same
This tom stuff definitely reminds me of da hype train they tried to put around manny pacquaio lol how many ppl that say Jon is scared would actually bet their hard earned money that hes gonna lose? lol
