Tom Aspinall has insisted that a bout with Jon Jones would be his ‘dream fight’ after recording an emphatic win at UFC London.
The English heavyweight delivered a brutal knockout to Marcin Tybura during the first-round of Saturday’s main event inside the O2 Arena.
The 30-year-old showed off his sleek stand-up abilities to dispose of his Polish counterpart within the first minute and 13 seconds of their fight.

Fast, Tom Aspinall made an impression on his return to competition. He had not fought since last year following his serious injury during the fight against Curtis Blaydes in London.

Ranked number 5 in the premier category of the UFC, the Briton knows exactly what he wants. He wants to go through the stages intelligently before taking the title. After the fight, the Englishman unveiled his plan at the microphone of Michael Bisping.

He explained that he wants to fight the winner of the Gane vs. Spivac which will take place at UFC Paris on September 2. Then, he targets Jon Jones and the heavyweight title: “I will come to Paris, I will be in the front row of Gane vs. Spivac. I will beat the winner and then beat Jon Jones.”
