Cried during a walkout? Never heard that one

[@Camberwell86]

So glad he rocks the St George's Cross. I'm sick of Scots being Scots, Welsh being Welsh, Irish being Irish and the English draped in the Union Flag and being called Brits 😖

[@theblues8840]

Tom exposing his dad as a Strictly Come Dancing super fan was hilarious 🤣

[@maxkelly6664]

Couldn't be happier to have genuinely likeable blokes as champs in the UFC right now, Aspinall, Leon, Alex Pereira, these guys are great role models for young men like myself.

[@IAMJEFFREY-cw9ns]

Interim😉

[@RedForLife68]

@@IAMJEFFREY-cw9nsyou know that interim thing is bollocks. Anyone with a brain knows that Tom is a legit champ. Jon didn’t win the title off the lineal champ and he should be stripped after his injury. It’s just Dana privilege and Jon’s history that is getting in the way.

[@vincentmcaulay3832]

Oh man, this is so wholesome. As a Lancashire lad myself (living in Manchester) it makes me feel proud. So happy for Tom. I've only been following his career since his UFC debut but I'd say he's probably my favourite fighter on the roster.

[@wdrake10]

My only issue with this episode is that it isn’t 4hrs long cuz I could watch this all day! Well done boys 👏🏼

I agree, I was thinking this was like a warm blanket by the fireplace and I’m a bloody Yank 😂But I love this combo; especially, w Tom Aspinall 🎶Tom Aspinall, Nah nah nah nah nah nah nah…..

Not mentioned money once . What a guy an his dad is just a legend to .

[@ppurin1]

Aspinall is an absolute beauty! Love his confidence and humbleness, a dangerous combination.

[@UkePeas]

Hearing Tom's dad talk about training young kids with play, you guys should do a short series with him on different games and techniques for kids. It would be a massive hit!

[@TheRiley250]

I was literally thinking that at the time I want to know what I can do with my two boys to keep them engaged

[@gruffalobill4812]

In a world where it is hard to believe what you watch, as everything has become fake or a performance for the camera. I have to say how refreshing and entertaining it is to see a bunch of folk just being themselves and grounded.. 👏🏻 Thank you

Can’t wait for this one 🤙

❤️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿❤️ Nick & Adam Love the support & the recognition you give Tom.. you two are doing the country proud, & need to be knighted for all your insight videos & documenting the journey of our ENGLISH UFC CHAMP!

[@dustinrobinson58]

When Tom walked into the pub he looked embarrassed and hid the belt,I guess that’s just Tom all over.👌👍

[@Dukestboy96]

He's still a normal guy and doesn't consider himself better than the average person so probably doesn't really want to parade around his home town acting like he's some celebrity

[@guyrushworth7363]

Wicked stuff fellas! Such an easy going way to do it. Just the lads down the pub. 👍

[@cKxTaLenTs]

First time listener here, I didn’t know you guys had a separate podcast besides doing the fight previews and stuff over there! Love your guys stuff and love Tom as well! As Jones being my favorite fighter I’d be terrified for him to fight Tom. On another note, if Jon Anik is 1a, you two make a 1b combo. I’d love to see you guys do a semi official fight calling or watch party type thing. Would do great I’m sure across the pond and I’d love to watch as an American as well

Tom has to do Strictly Come Dancing! Seriously. Everyone that goes on that show gets a MASSIVE career boost and talks about the experience like it's the most joyous and life-changing thing to have ever happened to them. Get on there and rep MMA, Tom, it's a win-win.

[@Dukestboy96]

He hasn't got time for that now. Unless he's actually waiting for Jones and stipe to fight before he gets back in

[@millysworld6150]

Great stuff lads. Would be good to see you guys talk about Tom's marked improvement since his first UFC fight and especially since his operation. Mad to think he's still getting bigger and better with each fight.
