Dana White names the only fighter Jon Jones ever ducked and it’s not Tom Aspinall

Dana White claims that Jon Jones did not fight Tom Aspinall.

Conversations for a unification between the two UFC Heavyweight Champions have continued all year round.

Jon Jones repeatedly took a distance from the matchup before announcing his pension on Saturday.

As a result, Tom Aspinall has been raised to undisputed status, and some fans have called the greatest hunter in MMA history a 'duck'.

Dana White only took fighter jet Jon Jones popped up

On Sunday, the UFC -CEOo spoke with Bloody Elbow and other media in the press conference of the Canelo Alvarez vs Terence Crawford in New York.

White insisted that the only time that Jones dived a fight was when he refused to see Chael Sonen on late notification, which led to UFC 151 the first event that was canceled in September 2012 by MMA's Premier Promotion.

“No,” said White when he was asked if Jones Aspinall had turned off by retiring.

'Jon Jones, I said it a million times, I will say it again, he never hiding anyone.

“Unlike that one Goofy time with the Chael Sonnen -Ding. Never grind anyone.

'Whatever has changed thoughts with this matchup, I don't know, you will have to ask him. But he is [about to be] 38 years old. Don't know.”

Jon Jones recalls that he made Dana White angry with UFC 151 refusal

A few days before he retired, Jones remembered his greatest failure with White.

“UFC 151, I refuse to fight Chael Sonnen,” he said.

“Man, he just didn't see the logic.

“If you are not the one who creates art, then it is easy to say what it is like to create art.

“I respect the process and I have to show respect in the way I do things.

“Yes, that P -, however, finished it.”
