Tom Aspinall mocks Jon Jones with this video amidst heavyweight champion's retirement speculation

Tom Aspinall has let it be known he doesn't like the thought of Jon Jones defending his UFC heavyweight championship against Stipe Miocic and that the company should move on from that legacy fight and mandate he vs. Jones, instead.

So when Jones took to his X account earlier this week to toy with retirement after the Miocic fight, while saying "maybe the UFC will offer me a deal I can’t refuse" toward a subsequent fight with Aspinall, the interim heavyweight title holder played a little social media game of his own in tired of waiting.

On Wednesday, Aspinall took to his Instagram account and posted an amusing video of himself trolling Jones and UFC CEO Dana White, while searching for the heavyweight champion in various locations.

The video begins with footage of White saying: "When you talk about who's the baddest dude in the world, you put two guys in a room and who walks out? Jon Jones walks out the f—ing room every time. No question about it."

From there, Aspinall retorts: "Exactly right, Dana. We need to get Jon in a room first. Let's go find the room."

The video segues to Aspinall looking for Jones in different locations, beginning with edited footage of Jones laying face down on a massage chair to which an edited-in Aspinall slides underneath and says "Jon? Hello, Jon?"

Aspinall then mistakes a gym bystander for "Bones," saying "I thought you were someone else, sorry."

The video also has edited footage of Jones swimming laps in a pool and Aspinall trying to clean the pool to bring the heavyweight champion closer to him, before jumping into the water only for Jones to backstroke away.

The clip ends with Aspinall finally declaring "there he is, we've got him! Jon!" only for the cameras to pan and show a couple of ducks symbolic of Aspinall's belief that the champ is ducking him.

Aspinall is then seen with a duck mask on, gesturing that he's crying.

For extra measure, Aspinall captioned the video "Where are you @jonnybones 👀🦆 Is it time for retirement? 🤔" and also directly jabbed at White saying "Any help @danawhite ? 🤔"

Jones is supposed to fight Miocic later this year, leaving Aspinall waiting.
