Jon Jones- Darren Till- Tom Aspinall
UFC Middleweight Darren Till was the happiest man alive at UFC London when he saw his teammate, UFC heavyweight Tom Aspinall nail his performance in the main event in front of both of their home crowd. Till and Aspinall both train out of Team Kaobon, the premiere face of mixed martial arts club in England.

While Till is on a temporary halt and is working on his skills to elevate by training with a potential title contender in near future, Khamzat Chimaev, Aspinall is on a fierce rise to the heavyweight rankings and after securing a top 10 position in the UFC heavyweight division with his first-round submission win over Alexander Volkov, he is looking to make a crack into the top 3 ranking as well.

After winning over Volkov, Aspinall called out #3 ranked heavyweight Tai Tuivasa for his next fight. Till talks about Aspinall’s future and how Aspinall decides for his fate as a heavyweight fighter. Till also thinks that Aspinall might have his sights on a fight that many fans won’t see coming as of now but the latter is sure that might happen in future for sure.
“He just texted me and told me to stop calling out [Ciryl] Gane for him,” Till said on The Triple C & Schmo Show. “He wants to fight Tai [Tuivasa] then Gane. So I think he knows his road. I think he’s gonna be the next champion at heavyweight.”
Asked if Aspinall would be interested to fight the peak of the talent in MMA, Jon Jones sometime in near future, Till said “I think he would play with [Jon] Jones, I really do.”
What do you make of Aspinall’s career path in future based on Till’s words? Do you think a potential showdown between former light-heavyweight great Jones and Aspinall is possible later on in the latter’s career? Who do you think would win that fight? Who do you think wins between Aspinall and Tuivasa if that fight happens?
