BISPING interviews Tom Aspinall: "Forget Jon Jones", Alex Pereira, Eddie Hall, Joshua vs Ngannou

Michael Bisping is joined by Tom Aspinall who talk Mark Coleman, Curtis Blaydes rematch, not being like Michael Chandler sitting out for ages waiting for Conor McGregor, being a 'celebrity' after winning championship, training with Eddie Hall, thoughts on Ngannou vs Joshua, Demetrious 'Mighty Mouse' Johnson thinking Joshua can beat Ngannou in MMA, UFC 300, Alex Pereira and more!

Great interview! Tom Aspinall is a good lad, humble, respectful, loved all the support and motivation you gave Tom Aspinall going into the Sergei Pavlovich fight, Michael Bisping. Respect.

[@chris.440]

Aspinall is the current HW UFC champ, Jones has never beaten a HW champ and he is unwilling to fight the top people, Jones knows his last few fights at LHW were hard fights and Tom is too good for him and he wants to retire unbeaten. Tom is the future.

[@Elmer__Fudd]

If jones doesn't retire after His next fight he literally can't run anywhere he has to fight If he doesn't it will cement that he's scared of him don't think he is, I think he'll fight him. But if he doesn't, there's no argument That he Ducked him

[@d.jparer5184]

​@@Elmer__Fuddyeah you can't call Jon Jones the GOAT anymore if he leaves the sport to duck tom aspinall.

[@antw9770]

@@d.jparer5184 Then who’s the GOAT? because GSP sure didn’t keep his promise of sticking around to defend against Whittaker.

[@d.jparer5184]

@@antw9770 gsp is the GOAT, just because he didn't defend against the middleweight that you wanted him to doesn't mean he isn't the goat.

[@antw9770]

@@d.jparer5184 So Jones can’t be the GOAT for not defending against Aspinall? But GSP who made an agreement with the UFC to fight Whittaker if he won the Bisping fight and said publicly he would backed out of it 11 days after winning the title and doesn’t get the same backlash?

[@PiglipsMaximus]

I love Aspinall's transition from almost shy and unsure to KNOWING he's the best. The face off (almost) with Jones told me Jones felt pressure and fear, Aspinall was cool as a cucumber. So proud that he's from UK too. Let's go

[@mitchtas5138]

You obviously didn't see the way jon Jones shoved his hand away when he tried to put it on his shoulder.

[@rambosilek7052]

@@mitchtas5138 No matter how you slice it, Jon doesn't want the fight. You can theorycraft all you want about "shoving his arm away", fact is Jon won't fight him cause he knows he has no win condition vs Tom. What is Jon better at? Maybe wrestling? He will get outmuscled like there's no tomorrow. Natural HW vs Ecto, no chance.

[@takeapictureitlllastlonger5768]

@@rambosilek7052 John has served his time now its toms time to serve his. If he finishes ufc with anything close to jones accolades then we can talk.

[@ShaunHerbert-er1ow]

​@@rambosilek7052I think if jones doesn't want to fight its because he doesn't really care.. I don't think it's because he's scared of losing or that he has fear... jones is moulded in ufc from a long time ago... it be a joke for any fighter that's been in this game that long to be fearful of any fight or fighter

[@jjsyphor8288]

no matter how you slice it, Jones beat the best active heavyweight in Gane while Tom hasn't beat a legitimate HW contender yet. no matter how you slice it, Tom lost to blaydes in 15 seconds.

[@MarcRCAddict]

What a great interview, two of the best mma fighters from the uk and two of the nicest guys too, looking forward to seeing toms next dominant fight

[@HalleyBay61]

I have no idea where this famous quote actually originated, but I feel that Tom is really living to it. "The worst thing that can happen to any fighter is to get civilised." It's amazing to see Tom living simple (as simple as he can in this day n age), keeping hungry, not getting distracted by all of the circus. He's a real fighter who MUST be better than everyone. He needs it, and that's the difference between those who are very good and those who are the very best. The tip of the spear. Thanks, Tom, for being real and keeping it real, and thanks to your dad for teaching you the right way to live and work. Don't ever lose that focus, my man. I believe and have believed it from your first fight in the UFC that you will be that benchmark we all talk about in years to come. You have already achieved that in all honesty, but your legacy as a person and a professional sportsman will last longer as you achieve even more success. If you ever lose (not through injury) I believe that you are the type of person that will allow it to make you stronger. In this world of Colby Covingtons, you are a big breath of fresh, cool air. Long live the King of the cage. I ain't no glory supporter, I supported Ricky Hatton from his pro debut to his current times. He is a real person, and that means more to me than being a successful asshole. I don't care if someone makes mistakes. We all do, and those that say they don't are dishonest to themselves and then those they meet. It's how you are in general that matters. Ricky has had a very rough time over the years, but he's come through the other side. I've met & known many famous sports people, and I learned from my incredible late dad that you respect the person and not just their achievements. If you are top of the world and not a decent person, I don't want to know you. That's just the way I am. Tom Aspinall, you are a man that is worth following and admiring because you live right, lad. Being a champion isn't something that's won. It's earned.

Tom is the only heavy weight that i think is really good right now, his movement and speed are great. The division needs an active champion and Tom Aspinall is the man right now. I maybe bias because i like the guy but hes been so good in his recent fights its hard to argue I think.

[@MichaelGalt]

I like the attitude of Tom. Stop chasing Jones and just get out there, f up some more people... and make it so he HAS to fight you... for his OWN legacy. I, for one, really do want to see him fight Stipe. I want to see Jones fight Aspinall. I want to see him fight Pavlovich. I want those things regardless of whether Jones retains the title. In the meantime... Aspinall should fight Gane or Blaydes (preferably, Gane). If Aspinall were to end Gane anywhere near as dramatically and quickly as Jones did... then that would practically FORCE that fight to happen.

Stipe was the man, but he's gonna get merc'd by Jones and Jones knows it just like he knows Tom would likely finish him and take his belt. Tom will be a dominant champ for a while once he gets that belt
