The UFC’s Heavyweight division has generated a lot of excitement among fans. At UFC 304, Tom Aspinall secured his interim title by knocking out Curtis Blaydes in just 60 seconds, surpassing the number of title defenses made by the current champion, Jon Jones. Originally, Jones was set to defend his title against Stipe Miocic at UFC 295, but a torn pectoral muscle led to Aspinall replacing him and facing Sergei Pavlovich for the interim title.
Despite Aspinall’s impressive performance, UFC CEO Dana White has not seen fit to offer him a title unification fight. White appreciates Aspinall’s talent but believes that the more experienced fighters like Jones and Miocic should have their bout first. There are rumors circulating that Miocic might retire following his upcoming fight with Jones. A poll has been conducted to gauge public opinion on whether Aspinall should fight Jones ahead of Miocic.
