Joe Rogan believes that Tom aspinall has a significant advantage over Alex Poatán in a possible fight between the two. During the episode of the 'JRE MMA Show', the UFC commentator highlighted that the Englishman has an advantage in terms of a superior ground game and a significant physical advantage.

“You have to think Aspinall can take him down. I think Aspinall, the moment he gets in the Octagon and can land a standing shot, he’s going to try. If he can’t, the takedown is always there. He’s much bigger. Aspinall easily weighs 115 pounds,” Rogan said.

Despite Joe Rogan and many fans' desire to see Poatan move up to heavyweight, UFC president Dana White has been resistant to the idea. The UFC boss recently stated that the Brazilian should clear the light heavyweight division before considering a move to the heavier weight class.

Meanwhile, Alex has a fight scheduled and faces Khalil rountree No. UFC 307, an event that takes place on October 5. The Brazilian has a record of 11 positive results and two negative ones.

Aspinall, in turn, is the interim heavyweight champion and has already made himself available to be the 'reserve' for the fight between Jon Jones e Stipe Miocic, which is scheduled to take place in November this year.
