"Ask him why Jon Jones is ducking him" - Fans react as "concerned" Piers Morgan worries about asking "one wrong question" to Tom Aspinall

`Perhaps the biggest question the MMA world wants to answer at the moment is whether or not Jon Jones will fight Tom Aspinall. Jones, who is the current undisputed UFC heavyweight champion, made it known that he'll only be interested in fighting interim champ Aspinall if he gets paid substantially.

Aspinall, who has gone on record to say that he's hopeful that this fight will happen, is awaiting the UFC and Jones' decision. In the meantime, he'll make his rounds in the media, particularly with popular broadcaster and fellow Englishman Piers Morgan.

Morgan took to X to ask fans what questions he should be asking the young heavyweight:

"Interviewing this guy later.. and slightly concerned that one wrong question and he might actually kill me. @AspinallMMA @ufc @PiersUncensored"

Fans have been sending in their questions, with @Slim_Picking5 going the comedic route:

"ASK HIM WHY @JonnyBones IS DUCKING HIM"

Meanwhile, @RedWolfMMA said:

"Nice one Piers, I'm sure you will get on fine.. as long as you remember Tom is the real champion, not Jones .. champions don't duck 😉"

Tom Aspinall breaks down Jon Jones' dominant win at UFC 309

Last month at UFC 309, Jon Jones made his triumphant return to action after a year on the sidelines by utterly dismantling Stipe Miocic to defend the UFC heavyweight title. The whole world, including Tom Aspinall, marvelled at the greatness of the consensus MMA GOAT as he dispatched the two-time heavyweight champion with a spinning back-kick in the third round.

Aspinall was so impressed with 'Bones' that he made a detailed breakdown of his performance in a segment with UFC on TNT Sports on X:

"Watch this hand. He constantly distracts you with the lead hand. So, he's keeping you busy with this before he starts to turn and starts to do these kicks. This comes first, is the front hand, look, he just paws it out before he does anything, and he does that every time. He occupies the front hand and then works his attacks off it, which is high-level fight IQ stuff from Jon Jones. He's one of the smartest fighters ever."

Though there is undeniable praise for the heavyweight champion's fight IQ and technique, this may also be Aspinall's subtle way of telling the champion that he can analyze his moves and break them down easily.
