UFC President Dana White has given a rare 100 percent guarantee that a heavyweight title unification bout between Jon Jones and Tom Aspinall will take place in 2025. This statement was made following the final UFC event of the year in Tampa, where White emphasized the significance of the fight, calling it potentially the biggest in heavyweight history and a major event in the history of the UFC. Despite Jon Jones' public reluctance to fight Aspinall, citing the Brit's lack of big fight experience, White remains confident that the matchup will occur, highlighting Jones' history of not turning down fights behind the scenes. Aspinall has an impressive 8-1 record in the UFC, while Jones boasts a nearly unblemished resume with victories in 16 championship bouts.
