Tom Aspinall insists that it is not striking, struggling or Jiu-Jitsu who makes him the best heavyweight in MMA.
The Interim -FC heavyweight title holder wants to prove itself in a champion vs champion fight with Jon Jones, who is generally considered generally the greatest of all time this year.
Tom Aspinall begged 'Bones' to sign the contract after looking at the next opponent of the American, Alex Pereira, lost his light heavyweight title to Magomed Ankalaev on UFC 313 last weekend.
Now he has explained what makes him different from all other heavyweights on the UFC grid.

Tom Aspinall emphasizes his best characteristic
For decades of competing in various martial arts, Tom Aspinall has prepared for life as an elite MMA hunter.
The 31-year-old believes that growing up in combat sports helped him to be unique to make the right call when the pressure is.
“It makes the right decisions at the right time,” Aspinall said when he was asked to mention his biggest characteristic during an interview with The Independent.
“My skills are good, but that also applies to everyone's. Being in the gym since I was 10 years old, it is no harm [my decision-making]And my father also talks a lot about training the eyes: making your reactions faster.
“I don't think many people do that to be honest. I think my decision -making is by far the best in the division. “
Dana White reveals reason for Jon Jones vs Tom Aspinall Delay
Aspinall recently went to his YouTube to update fans during his next fight.
The Englishman explained that he had agreed to the conditions for a collision with Jones, who, according to him, was the reason that it had not yet been officially booked.
Since then, UFC boss Dana White has given an update on the future of Jones and revealed the real reason that his fight with Aspinall was not announced.
“Listen, Jon Jones absolutely wants to fight,” said White Na UFC 313 on Saturday night.
“Just when and where is what we are working on now.
“I have every confidence in that fighting takes place (this summer).”
UFC 317 will head the 13th annual international fight week of the promotion in June.
It seems the perfect time for Jones and Aspinall to unite the heavyweight division if all parties can agree with conditions behind the scenes.
