“Enterprise is selecting up now, lastly,” Cormier mentioned on Jones and Aspinall. “It’s the battle, or at the least it feels just like the battle. Whereas I believed [Tom Aspinall] fumbled the post-fight interview with me in Manchester, appears to be annoyed. Actually, frustration could be good proper now. As a result of in frustration, you begin to actually present your true emotions on the state of affairs. [Aspinall] was very respectful in that interview…however what does respectful get you? It doesn’t actually get you all that you really want. Now, respect’s out the window with this dude, and he’s simply telling it how it’s…
“Right here’s one factor about Jon Jones; and this may be from me as a result of I’m an individual that lived it with him,” Cormier continued. “The factor about Jon Jones, he doesn’t like disrespect. He can’t ignore whenever you take photographs at him. and that’s why it was very straightforward to get underneath his pores and skin. We as fighters don’t like being disrespected, particularly one who has had as a lot success as Jon Jones has had. On the finish of the day, Jon Jones is a champion and he’s a competitor. Issues are selecting up at heavyweight, I believe we’re nearer to Jon Jones vs. Tom Aspinall in the present day than we’ve ever been…in beef, disrespect is all the time what will get you nearer to combating him. Tom Aspinall is being disrespectful now, and I believe that’s going to work to his benefit when it comes to getting this battle.”
Jones and Aspinall are two of the UFC’s pound-for-pound greatest. In accordance with Cormier, a battle between them could be nearer to fruition.
