UFC heavyweight champion Jon Jones reacted to the announcement of a fight between interim division champion Tom Aspinall and Curtis Blaydes on his X account.
Jon Jones
Some Saturday math for everyone. Curtis 0 + Tom 0 championship belts = 0. Jon 14 + Stipe 6 championship belts = 20. To be fair to Curtis and Tom, I didn't count my interim title win either lol. But yeah, sure, you guys are fighting for the real belt. #Facts
Recall, the first fight between Blaydes and Aspinall took place in July 2022 at UFC Fight Night 208. In this fight Curtis won by technical knockout after Tom was unable to continue the fight due to a knee injury.The British has 14 wins and three defeats. The American has 18 wins and four defeats, and one more of his fights was ruled a no-contest.
