Michael Bisping supports Dana White's viewpoint on Jon Jones's comeback.
In a recent podcast, UFC Hall of Famer Michael Bisping shared his thoughts on the potential comeback of Jon Jones to the Octagon.
According to Bisping, Jones has been trying to get a piece of a big event following his departure from the UFC, leaving many hanging. This sentiment was echoed by Bisping after Jones made Tom Aspinall wait an unknown amount of time, as he claimed.
The last time Jones stepped into the Octagon was at UFC 309, where he knocked out Stipe Miocic in the third round, defending his heavyweight title. This victory was a significant moment in Jones' career, but his actions outside the ring have raised questions.
Bisping stated that Jones ended up flipping everyone off, went to Thailand, and left everyone hanging, according to his podcast. This behaviour has caused some controversy, leading to doubt about his intentions.
One of the most talked-about aspects of Jones' potential return is the reported $30 million offer for a fight with Aspinall. However, Bisping expressed some scepticism about the accuracy of this figure.
MMA Fighting has provided information on the possible contract value reportedly offered to Jones for a fight against Aspinall. If the offer is indeed true, it would be one of the highest in UFC history.
Despite his reservations, Bisping does not blame UFC president Dana White for promoting Jones' return. He stated that White cannot be blamed for his stance on Jones, and he supports White in this matter.
However, if Bisping were in White's shoes, he would tell Jones to "piss off", as he stated in his podcast. This comment reflects the complex feelings Bisping has towards Jones' return to the UFC.
The potential bout between Jones and Aspinall at a White House event next year is currently in question. As the situation develops, fans and pundits alike will be eagerly awaiting updates on this highly anticipated match-up.
