Tom Aspinall has caused Henry Cejudo to lose interest in the anticipated match-up between Jon Jones and Stipe Miocic.
Original plans for a heavyweight bout between Jones and Miocic at UFC 295 were thwarted due to Jones tearing his pectoral muscle. Aspinall stepped up to face Pavlovich for the interim title, claiming victory with a first-round knockout.
Cejudo acknowledges Aspinall’s impressive performance and is eager to witness potential match-ups like Aspinall vs. Jones. He expressed his preference for Aspinall over Miocic in a fight against Jones due to the latter bout losing its appeal over time.
Aspinall himself has expressed his interest in facing Jones, while UFC CEO Dana White has mentioned the intention to rebook Jones vs. Miocic once Jones has recovered from injury.
