I have a mate who is just like Tom, from a very young age his old man used to beat the piss out of him tho, so he is tough as nails but has a proper big heart, he would beat the piss outa bullies, take on 4 guys for anyone in trouble and then be a chill as can be. You don’t need to be a prick if you’re tough, and that’s why Tom Aspinall is an all round British icon and the type of guy we need as champ. 🇬🇧💯

Blaydes is a joke. He’s a total joke. Look at his fight against Derek Lewis. His KO will literally make you chuckle. Look at his fight against Sergei Pavlovic. Look at his last two “wins” for Christs sake. They’re pathetic. When it comes to like the bottom half of the division Curtis can throw down but anyone who’s a serious belt contender will wipe the floor with the guy because he’s not a superior fighter. Tom will have him on the mat unconscious before the 2 minute point mark my words

Tom , is the type who shows respect and class in victory or defeat , doesn't brag and try to make others feels they're losers... I think Jones has a cruel streak and wants to humiliate his opponents , probably has some deep seated issues and ego problems... Tom is a great role model displaying strength , but respect and fairness as well... Hope he regins as champ for a long while..
