Ben Askren and Daniel Cormier talk Jon Jones “nightmares” and fight vs. Aspinall | Funky & The Champ



DC and Ben Askren are BACK with another episode of Funky and the Champ! The two react to Jon Jones making headlines this week after saying he constantly has nightmares of his opponents, including Stipe Miocic, and why Jones isn’t sure a fight with Tom Aspinall is something he’ll entertain. Askren says although he has Jones as a significant favorite against Stipe, a loss to Tom Aspinall could put his GOAT status in serious jeopardy, as was the case was with UFC legend Anderson Silva. Plus, don’t miss Ben and DC give their take on the rumor that Jon Jones won’t fight on the same card as Colby Covington.

  1. It's nice to see Ben has gained some fans and turned some haters just by being a good dude and taking his losses like a champ. To be fair, he was champ in ONE and Bellator, which are not easy organizations to be champ.

  2. It's kinda misleading saying he missed 7 years out of that because there are tons of fighters who only fight once or twice a year. Sire Jon had a lot of hiatus' but I mean alot of fighters have a good amount of time between fights. Cough Leon edwarda cough.

    Speaking of Leon. I never wanted him to win the belt for the sole purpose of how inactive he is. Usman was fighting non stop as a champion and I just knew Leon would drag his feet as a champ like he did as a contender

  3. Glad DC called out GSP for cherry picking Bisping. The gameplan was out on Bisping and he ran back to grab a cheap opportunity for a title. He left when his fights were getting close and only came back for an incredibly easy fight vs Bisping.

  4. jon has been champion since the age of 19 and is now champ still at 35, he damn near 54 in fighter years , he earned to pick his fights at this point

  5. Wait where did DC see jones vs gane did 700k ppv buys ? Only thing i could ever find was ali saying it did over a mil 😅 wtf

  6. Jones must do whatever he wants to do. He’s achieved far beyond any fighter in UFC. He’s the goat. If he wants to retire, then he should. He’s been fighting in UFC since 2008 at age 21. Now he’s 36 with 16 championship fights
