Michael Bisping criticizes Jon Jones for avoiding fight with Tom Aspinall

Michael Bisping has expressed frustration with Jon Jones, the UFC heavyweight champion, for avoiding a unification fight with interim champion Tom Aspinall. Bisping compares Jones to Jake Paul, criticizing both for choosing opponents they believe they can easily defeat. Bisping's comments come after Jones' recent knockout victory over Stipe Miocic, which he believes makes a fight with Aspinall even more compelling. He feels that Jones should face younger, skilled fighters instead of opting for seemingly easier matchups. UFC President Dana White has stated that Aspinall will receive his title shot, despite Jones' reluctance to fight him. This suggests that a matchup between Jones and Aspinall could happen in 2025.
