Former UFC heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou backs Jon Jones, states he has nothing to gain from fighting interim champion Tom Aspinall.

Jones is fresh off his first title defense at heavyweight, a Round 3 TKO of Stipe Miocic less than two weeks ago in the UFC 309 main event. Meanwhile, Aspinall defended his interim title with a first-round TKO of Curtis Blayes in the UFC 304 headliner in July.

Francis Ngannou challenged UFC star Jon Jones to a fight that would determine the top heavyweight fighter in MMA. "We both want this fight, for sure,"
