Dana White predicts what's in store for Tom Aspinall after Jon Jones vs. Stipe Miocic: “They're not just going to ride off into the sunset”
It seems Dana White wants to see a proper unification bout between interim UFC heavyweight champ Tom Aspinall and the winner of Jon Jones vs. Stipe Miocic at UFC 309. The UFC president is hopeful that the two heavyweight legends battling on Nov. 16 would give the young champion a crack at immortality - as they were given in the past.
In an interview with UFC on TNT Sports on X, White gave a candid opinion on what could transpire in the aftermath of UFC 309 at Madison Square Garden:
“I truly believe that whoever wins this fight, competitively, the way these guys are wired, and the reason why they're both massive legends in the sport, they’re not just going to ride off into the sunset without settling the dispute with Tom Aspinall. "
White added:
"I think that, also, when you think about Jon Jones becoming the youngest world champion, and all the things Stipe [Miocic] has accomplished, they were given opportunities, you know, when they were young. And I think they would reciprocate."

On the political side of Dana White's life, the UFC CEO was present in the victory speech of newly-seated U.S. President Donald Trump. During his time on the mic after his win, Trump mentioned his close friend and lifelong ally White, whom he asked to say a few words to all his supporters.
White said:
"Nobody deserves this more than him [Trump] and nobody deserves this more than his family does. This is what happens when the machine comes after you. What you've seen over the last several years. This is what it looks like. Couldn't stop him. He keeps going forward. He doesn't quit. He's the most resilient, hard-working man I've ever met in my life. His family are incredible people. This is Karma, ladies and gentlemen. He deserves this."
White proceeded to thank a few people who helped him in his campaign to support the Republican party candidate. He mentioned names such as Theo Von, the Nelk Boys, and "the mighty and powerful" Joe Rogan.
