Jon Jones was still able to fight Tom Aspinall, but not quickly, according to a former MMA star.
The MMA community is currently being merged, in the hope that a confrontation between the undisputed and interim champions of the UFC Heavyweight Division will finally flourish.
Although Curtis Blaydes says that Jones is not afraid of Aspinall, fans are growing with the lack of enthusiasm of the legend for the competition.
However, a former challenger of the middleweight title says that the match-up could still happen, although we may have to wait for a while.

Chael Sonnen says that one of Jon Jones's coaches told him when a fight with Tom Aspinall could happen
Chael Sonnen has opened a conversation he had with one of Jon Jones' coaches about a possible confrontation with Tom Aspinall.
'The American Gangster' came out of the chat with a great concern about what was said.
In a video uploaded to his YouTube channel, Sonen explained: “I spoke with someone very close to Jon, I spoke with one of Jon's coaches. I said:” Hey, he is going to fight Tom. “And he said:” I don't think I will do this year. “
“My interpretation of this, I think Jon is looking for Tom to do something else. Jon said,” Just fight someone else. “
“You've been talking about a year from now on, you talk, I want to see Tom fight two or three times. Will Tom still be the champion in two or three more?
“If we are going in a year from now on, and not Tom, where would be the interest in seeing Jon coming back?
“Three battles of now, do you know how Rijk Tom is going to be? To believe that Tom is just as prepared and in the same place it is a big risk.
“If you are at the place of Jon, you wait for one specific thing, what the right time is to fight Tom, but what if the champion is no longer Tom? Who could you imagine, you could order the type of money that is offered Jon, even if it is now in a year of now?”
