Interim heavyweight champion Tom Aspinall has been calling out Jon Jones since winning the interim championship in November 2023. Jones has been sidelined since tearing a pectoral tendon while preparing to face former two-time titleholder Stipe Miocic at UFC 295. The two are expected to finally fight later this year. During Jones’ absence, Aspinall was crowned the interim champion and will defend that title at UFC 304 on July 27 in Manchester, England against fourth-ranked Curtis Blaydes . A win could put Aspinall on a collision course with Jones. Former three-time light heavyweight title challenger Alexander Gustafsson believes Aspinall will defeat Jones if a fight between the two comes to fruition.
