Tom Aspinall says fight news is coming and he’s no Michael Chandler

Tom Aspinall dismisses comparisons to Michael Chandler, confirms next fight is being announced soon

Speaking with Daniel Cormier and Chael Sonnen on Good Guy/Bad Guy, Aspinall explained exactly why he's not like Chandler.

"I'm not looking to fight Jon Jones," Aspinall clarified. "I'm looking to fight for the undisputed heavyweight championship. That's what I want to be, I want to be the UFC's undisputed heavyweight champion.

"I see a lot of people comparing me to Michael Chandler. . . I'm not waiting for one fight, I'm not trying to fight one guy... I'm trying to fight all the guys! I'm trying to be the guy at heavyweight who takes out everybody."

As to whom he fights as champion, Aspinall says it doesn't matter.

"It doesn't matter who it is: Ciryl Gane, [Alexander] Volkov rematch, [Jailton] Almeida, Derrick Lewis, Brock Lesnar, whoever it is, I don't care. I want to fight everybody, fight as much as possible, get some excitement back in this division, and let's not talk about Jon Jones anymore, man.

". . . I'm the active guy, I'm going to fight somebody, and that's going to be announced very soon."

If Aspinall really does have a fight lined up, fans can expect the announcement during the UFC 316 or 317 broadcasts.

Either the UFC and Aspinall are being coy about a Jones fight, or Aspinall is fighting another name, likely for Jones' vacant heavyweight title, since the Brit confirmed he won't fight for anything but the undisputed title.
