Jon Jones instantly walks out of interview after being asked question about Tom Aspinall

Jon Jones wasted no time walking out of an interview after being asked a question about Tom Aspinall.

The undisputed UFC heavyweight showdown between champion Jones and interim title holder Aspinall has stalled to the frustration of many, including Dana White who has set a deadline.

It was in the works to unify the UFC heavyweight titles after Aspinall captured the interim belt following his victory over Sergei Pavlovich in November 2023.

But Jones isn't interested in facing Aspinall as he has no desire to step foot inside the famed Octagon.

Speaking on a new episode of the Full Send Podcast, he told Kyle Forgeard: "I don't want to say that I'm retired because fighting is in my blood.

"Right now, I could really care less about fighting.

"When the itch comes back, if it comes back, then I'll do it with my whole heart."

Jones added: "But right now, I look around and realise what’s true, what’s real. I see the way people look at me and the way I make people feel and it’s an extraordinary thing. It’s a true blessing. Now my job is to serve that, give that to my fans, be reachable, touchable. Let them know what I have inside. That’s who I am right now. I’ve punched and kicked enough people."

Forgeard then brought up the British star, asking 'Bones': "What would it take to fight Tom Aspinall? From the UFC... what does the UFC got to do?"

Jones refused to answer the question about Aspinall before walking out of the interview.

"I'll see you guys later," he said as he left his seat.

Jones, who captured the vacant UFC heavyweight championship against Ciryl Gane back in March 2023, hasn't fought since his victory over Stipe Miocic at UFC 309 last November.

As for Aspinall, he defended his interim title against Curtis Blaydes at UFC 304 in his last outing.
