UFC play-by-play ace Jon Anik believes a title unification bout between Jon Jones and Tom Aspinall will indeed happen in 2025.

After Jon Jones ’ dominant victory over Stipe Miocic at UFC 309, speculation about his next fight runs wild. The buzz centers on a potential showdown with interim heavyweight champion Tom Aspinall. Interestingly, Francis Ngannou has weighed in with a surprising perspective.

Jones is fresh off his first title defense at heavyweight, a Round 3 TKO of Stipe Miocic less than two weeks ago in the UFC 309 main event. Meanwhile, Aspinall defended his interim title with a first-round TKO of Curtis Blayes in the UFC 304 headliner in July.

Of Tom Aspinall's three professional defeats, only one can be counted as entirely legitimate. The British heavyweight phenom suffered a knee injury TKO against Curtis Blaydes in just 15 seconds back in 2022 and was previously disqualified for an illegal 12-6 elbow in 2016.

UFC broadcaster Jon Anik predicts Jon Jones' next fight will be at heavyweight, potentially a unification bout with Tom Aspinall.
