The Ulitmate Fighting Championship (UFC) Interim Heavyweight champion is headed to “The Big Apple” next month.
UFC Heavyweight champion Jon Jones vs. former Heavyweight kingpin Stipe Miocic is only a month away (Sat., Nov. 16, 2024) as the two legends will clash at UFC 309 inside Madison Square Garden in New York City.
Today (Mon., Oct. 14, 2024), Tom Aspinall, who holds the UFC Interim Heavyweight champion, revealed to Ariel Helwani that he is officially the backup and will step in if either Jones or Miocic can’t fight.
“Yes, it is official,” Aspinall said. “I mean, Dana [White] announced it a while ago now, but I didn’t actually hear anything from the UFC. But we actually spoke, and everything is going good and we came to an agreement about it.”
Aspinall also revealed that UFC has big plans for him but would not let the cat out of the bag yet.
“We know what’s happening going forward. We got plans,” Aspinall said. “We have future fight plans. Everything is right there. It’s going to be a good couple of years, let me tell ya. Big plans. Big, massive plans….[Jones or Miocic is next] That’s what is happening. We got other options, too, in case one guy wants to retire and one wants to continue, or both guys want to retire. Whatever. We have all the bases covered.”
It definitely seems like the UFC brass have a big plan for their British knockout machine, which is great to hear, as he is everything a promotion wants in a champion.
The only problem is he has beaten everyone in the Heavyweight Top 5, minus Ciryl Gane.
