It’s been nearly six months since the UFC heavyweight division last saw Jon Jones in action. The reigning champion most recently competed on November 16, 2024, at UFC 309, where he defeated Stipe Miocic via third-round TKO. That victory marked another historic milestone in Jones’ storied career. Now, a cryptic social media post has fans and media speculating that he might be plotting his next move.
Jones recently shared a photo of his 'wall of victory' on Instagram—a collection of framed posters from his legendary career. One spot on the wall remains unfilled. ‘Now, as you can see… still haven’t framed or hung the Stipe fight yet. Been moving a million miles an hour lately. But there’s one last perfect spot left on my wall of victory,’ he wrote. The caption continued: ‘This isn’t just artwork. It’s legacy… The wall’s almost filled… but trust me, the story’s still being written. The best is yet to come.’

The message sent fans into a frenzy, reigniting buzz about a potential showdown with interim champion Tom Aspinall. One fan summed up the sentiment best, commenting, 'Just put my Tom Aspinall in the Octagon bro.' Aspinall claimed interim gold in November 2023 at UFC 295 and has been vocal about the prolonged wait for official confirmation of a unification bout. He has consistently expressed frustration over the lack of a confirmed date and the ongoing uncertainty. With each passing month, pressure builds for the UFC to unify the belts. UFC President Dana White has addressed the potential matchup, stating in multiple interviews that the fight between Jones and Aspinall is 'definitely one we want to make happen.' He confirmed the organization is actively working to finalize the bout.
For now, the MMA world watches and waits—because when Jon Jones speaks, the entire sport listens. His recent post has not only reignited fan excitement but also signaled a potential breakthrough in the stalled negotiations. While no date has been set, signs now point to real progress behind the scenes—and the anticipation for Jones vs. Aspinall has never felt more real.
