“If Jones wants to put an end to it, he needs a fight with Aspinall” – Sidelnikov

Sports director of Ural FC Kirill Sidelnikov spoke about possible career development options for American fighter Jon Jones.

On Sunday, Jones, 37, defeated Stipe Miocic by TKO in the third round to retain his heavyweight title. For Jones, this victory was the 28th in his career.

— Jones dominated throughout the entire fight with Stipe, and he didn’t even really force things. If Jones had wanted, he could have finished the fight even earlier. Plus, with Jones’ size, doing an ushiro kick is very cool, beautiful and spectacular.

I admit, I expected a more dynamic and spectacular fight, but the fight turned out to be 50% boring, but the result is nice. Now Jones has two developments: if he wants to put an end to the fact that he is a definite heavyweight champion, he needs a fight with Aspinall. If he wants media exposure, popularity, then this is a fight with Alex Pereira. It seems to me that a fight with Pereira would have aroused more interest among people than the confrontation between Jones and Aspinall,” RB Sport quotes Sidelnikov as saying.
