"This is not good” - Tom Aspinall shares worrying prediction for Mike Tyson vs. Jake Paul clash

Tom Aspinall has admitted that he will be watching Mike Tyson vs. Jake Paul on Nov. 15, but will likely be doing so through his fingers. The UFC interim heavyweight champion recently shared his thoughts on the bout, and expressed major concern for 'Iron Mike'.

The upcoming boxing clash between one of the sport's most iconic fighters and one of its latest products has caused plenty of controversy online. A large part of that being due to the 31-year age difference between Tyson and his opponent.

The bout will be the Brooklyn native's first professional fight since 2005. While the majority of fans and fighters are behind the boxing icon, father time is hard to ignore for many of Tyson's supporters.

Aspinall was recently interviewed by Spinnin Backfist MMA Show, where he discussed the upcoming boxing match, and said:

"I watched the pad workouts, and I know pads are just pads, it's just a workout for the cameras. But I was watching it and I was like, 'Sh*t, Jake Paul is gonna knock him out.' This is not good. It's not something I want to see... He's like my dad's age, I don't want to see someone my dad's age getting knocked out... Just let the old guys be old."

Tom Aspinall believes boxing is Stipe Miocic's best chance of beating Jon Jones

Stipe Miocic and Jon Jones are set to clash for the heavyweight title at UFC 309 on Nov. 16. But with Tom Aspinall the current interim heavyweight champion, many fans believe that he should be facing 'Bones' instead of Miocic.

The upcoming heavyweight title fight will see two immensely complete MMA fighters go head to head in a bonafide "legacy" fight. Jones is widely regarded as the GOAT of MMA, while his impending opponent is viewed by many as the best heavyweight in the sport's history.

Miocic boasts a Division One collegiate wrestling and a Golden Gloves boxing background. As such, Aspinall recently shared the game plan he believed would best suit the title challenger in order to defeat 'Bones' at UFC 309.

During a recent interview with Red Corner MMA, he said:

"It's pretty simple, punch him in the face really hard. That's the way he's gonna win. Stipe has got a lot of knockouts on his record... We know Stipe, even at 42 or 43 years old...we think he still has that power."
