While no official announcement has been made, many fans and analysts expect this blockbuster fight to take place next year. Adding to the excitement are growing questions about Jon Jones’ future in the UFC, sparking further speculations.
Recently, UFC CEO Dana White confirmed that they are working to finalize the Jon Jones vs. Tom Aspinall fight. While Jones has yet to identify Aspinall as his next opponent, it seems like things are on the right path. UFC veteran Chael Sonnen recently shared his views on the matter and also gave his prediction regarding Jones’ future.
I do believe that it would be Jon Jones’s last fight. If Jones is to get over Jones on Aspinall, he’s very unlikely to fight again. The amount of money he will make for that night of participation, it’s hard to get anybody to fight again.

Tom Aspinall recently revealed that Jones did his best to get a big paycheck from UFC. Popular boxer Jake Paul mentioned how Jones should make around $50 million from the fight. It seems like the UFC is still trying to negotiate but Jones definitely has the upper hand.
The heavyweight champion has always been a smart fighter and knows the dangers of continuing fighting and taking hits to the head. He has publicly spoken about avoiding CTE and it won’t be surprising to see him quit after the Aspinall fight. On top of that, with a potential win, ‘Bones’ will undoubtedly cement his legacy as the best ever to do it.
