Jon Jones tells fans to 'knock it off' as they roar Tom Aspinall's name at the news conference promoting UFC 309 in New York on Saturday.
Jon Jones told fans to "knock it off" as they roared Tom Aspinall's name at the news conference promoting UFC 309 in New York on Saturday.
Jones, 37, has spent much of fight week batting away questions about Aspinall, saying he had no interest in a match-up with the 31-year-old Briton. "I did a really long press conference yesterday. I feel like I broke it down for everyone, exactly how I felt ."But rather than schedule a unification title bout, Jones was rebooked against 42-year-old Miocic.
Aspinall then shared a post on social media of him wearing a T-shirt which says "Hello Jon", and "I have nothing against you personally, I just think I'm better than ya".
