After the fame he gave a split reaction to the press, first calling the tribute video to be “first class,” but had…

Now that Ennis (33-0, 29 KOs, 1 NC) has made a mandated title defence…

Tom Aspinall put his “sour grapes” toward Jon Jones aside for a realistic breakdown of the UFC 309 main event vs. Stipe Miocic. Despite his many efforts to get Jones (27-1 MMA, 21-1 UFC) and Miocic (20-4 MMA, 14-4 UFC) to fight him, interim champion Aspinall (15-3 MMA, 8-1 UFC) will be an observer when the heavyweight title fight goes down in Saturday’s headliner at Madison Square Garden in New York (ESPN+ pay-per-view, ESPNews, ESPN+). It’s looking grim that Aspinall will even get the winner of the fight, but nevertheless he has still put his analyst cap on to examine…
