Tension exists in the UFC heavyweight division, highlighted by interim champion Tom Aspinall's comments on a podcast about Jon Jones supposedly being retired. Aspinall stated it's time for the division to progress without Jones, who has recently been active on social media. Jones responded rather sarcastically, suggesting Aspinall and the podcast hosts were talking gossip while he earns substantial income. This exchange revives long-standing narratives around Jones and Cormier's rivalry, showcasing both the dynamics of the UFC and the pressures of its heavyweight landscape.
Jon's retired. What are you talking about? You guys don't follow Jon on social media? The guy is living his best life. God bless him moving forward, and we move on. I'm the undisputed heavyweight champion of the world. I'm ready to take on all comers, get this division moving again. The guys, contenders are getting sick of it, everybody's getting sick of it, even the fans are getting sick of it. Jon's retired and it's time that we move on.
Jon Jones whooped both of y'all, but hey-why not team up on a podcast and gossip about his life? Meanwhile, he's out here making your annual salary in a week. Stay busy, boys.
The Jones-Cormier rivalry was one of the most heated in UFC history. 'Bones' defended his light heavyweight crown with a unanimous decision win over 'DC' in their first meeting at UFC 182 in January 2015.
