Jon Jones has not stopped trashing Tom Aspinall just yet. The heavyweight champion recently fought back, with fans on social media calling out Aspinall ahead of UFC 304. The interim heavyweight champion is stepping into a rematch with Curtis Blaydes at UFC 304. Jones commented on their previous fight and upcoming showdown while going back and forth with fans on social media.
Jon Jones recently barked back at a fan on X. A Tom Aspinall fan tweeted at Jones that he should fight Aspinall instead of tweeting as the interim champion would put him out in just three rounds. Jones uploaded the video of Aspinall vs. Blaydes 1 to prove a point.
I watched his fight against Curtis earlier today. Honestly, it was my first time seeing it. Your boy was getting that a** kicked. His knee blowing was the best thing that could’ve happened to him.

Interestingly, the first Tom Aspinall Vs Custis Blaydes matchup in 2022 lasted about 15 seconds. A user called Jones out on this, stating the match had barely started.
