The fallout from the fight has been interesting, to say the least. Some suggest the fight should have been a disqualification win for Aspinall instead of the ruled No Contest outcome. Regardless, despite not defending or losing his heavyweight title, Aspinall maintained the belt as he awaits successful recovery from the eye poke.<\/a><\/p>\n Jones, meanwhile, recently dismissed Aspinall’s performance <\/a>in a sit-down interview with Zayd Hussein and Jerdani Kraja, the hosts of the No Scripts Podcast<\/a>, following DBX 4 in Nashville this past week.<\/p>\n Jon Jones just called Tom Aspinall\u2019s game \u201cincredibly overrated\u201d \ud83d\udc40\ud83d\ude2c<\/p>\n (via @NoScriptsPod<\/a>) pic.twitter.com\/02NMIjuUgA<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Happy Punch (@HappyPunch) November 6, 2025<\/a>Jon Jones Rips Tom Aspinall For UFC 321 Performance Brad Penner-Imagn Images<\/p>\n “Tom’s a great athlete,” Jones said. “But I do feel like he’s a one-trick pony. I do believe that his wrestling and jiu-jitsu is incredibly overrated. He has a beautiful one-two [punch combination]. I got to learn a lot about his patterns in his last fight. That’s really about it, the one thing he sets up real nice.”<\/p>\n Jones said Aspinall was lucky to get out of the fight the way he did, especially with how Round 1 was playing out.<\/p>\n “He couldn’t touch Ciryl Gane at all,” Jones said. “That’s the way I felt. Gane was just getting warmed up. Gane’s hands were done. [He was] shaking his shoulders, bouncing around. He was so comfortable.”<\/p>\n READ MORE: Gable Steveson credits Jon Jones for early MMA success, eyes UFC contract<\/a><\/p>\n Jon Jones Calls Out Alex Pereira For UFC White House Card Pereira (IMAGO \/ Louis Grasse \/ PxImages), Jones (AFP)<\/p>\n Jones has remained clear that he wants to fight at the White House, briefly breaking down why a fight between him and UFC Light Heavyweight Champion Alex Pereira (13-3 MMA) is a better matchup than trying to regain the heavyweight title against Aspinall.<\/p>\n Jon Jones on why he wants to fight Alex Pereira at the White House next:<\/p>\n \u201cIt would be a blockbuster event.

I like the guy so much. We\u2019ll see. We\u2019ll have to talk about it. I just don\u2019t see why – unless he wants to retire – why throwing him at heavyweight makes any sense, other than I just end up saying he wants to do it so bad, I\u2019ll just say yes.\u201d<\/p>\n Jones’ last fight came at UFC 309 last November, defeating former champion Stipe Miocic (20-5 MMA) by third-round TKO at Madison Square Garden.<\/p>\n More MMA Knockout News<\/p>\n \u2022\u00a0UFC axes MMA fighter linked with betting scandal after suspicious loss<\/a><\/p>\n \u2022\u00a0Gable Steveson celebrates with UFC legend Jon Jones after viral 15-second KO<\/a><\/p>\n \u2022\u00a0UFC legend shares scathing assessment of Joe Rogan’s fighting experience<\/a><\/p>\n \u2022\u00a0Ante Delija rips NSAC & UFC officiating after shocking UFC Vegas 110 loss<\/a><\/p>\n Stick with\u00a0MMAKnockout<\/a>\u00a0for more FREE coverage of the UFC and MMA.<\/p>\n Follow MMAKnockout on\u00a0Facebook<\/a>,\u00a0Twitter<\/a>, and\u00a0Instagram<\/a>.<\/p>\n![\"Jon](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/01jx3gwdsfsm7jx91320.jpg\" "\\"Jon")
