Tom Aspinall for Bloody Elbow
I’m very confident that it’s going to happen. Obviously, a lot of things I’ve got to keep under wraps. I’ve had conversations with the higher-ups in the UFC and they are also very confident it’s going to happen. I don’t know from Jon’s side, but I know from my side and the UFC’s side it’s very likely.
