Regardless of which way you think it’s going to go, there’s no denying that this is the biggest fight the promotion can make right now. Aspinall has been on fire and he’s impressed against every fighter he’s been against, whereas Jones is easily one of the greatest fighters of all time.

There are theories ranging from an Aspinall knockout to a Jones masterclass everywhere you look. In a recent interview, Georges St-Pierre weighed in on what this fight means to the masses.

GSP’s view on Jones vs Aspinall

“I mean, you talk about legacy, Jon Jones is probably the best fighter that ever lived,” St-Pierre told Bloody Elbow. “If I have to choose someone in his prime that I put in the Coliseum, hand-to-hand, I think it would be Jon Jones. It’s hard to deny that. However, nobody beats time and Tom Aspinall is on a hell of a run so, it’s to see how they’re going to match.”

“It’s hard to say. As a fan, I want to see this fight,” St-Pierre said. “I would really like to see this fight, but I think Tom is very hungry, and it’s up to Jon to see if he still wants to do this, and if the UFC can compensate him good – because I think he deserves it. So it’s going to be a hell of a fight.”
