You should have adviced Aspinall to take out Stipe. If he beats Stipe then Jones has no choice than to fight him 💯💪

[@ignasr_9]

Aspinall is a real down to earth lad. He came to my work in Leeds after the Curtis fight and literally nobody except me and my mates recognised him. Now he probably can't walk down the street in a village without somebody noticing him lmao. Great guy. Signed a piece of paper for me cos I was too shy to ask for a picture 😅

[@Daniel_Addy]

Quality, I met him in London after his win over Volk - just stood at the bar with him for 10/15 minutes chatting, too lad! Been easier for me to meet him in Leeds mind - since its where I live 😂

[@Michael_F_81]

He is so down to earth and has time for anyone. I saw him on a night out with his mates in Atherton (Town he's from) a couple of weeks ago, and he was happy to chat and have pictures with anyone. It's also amazing to have a local UFC heavyweight champion.

[@thequinlanshow3326]

It's very easy to fucking hate Tom Aspinall. Everything about him is irritating. His overconfidence is completely unfounded and he has not proven himself in the UFC at all. All of his losses are to people that outgrappled or could easily out grapple him and y'all are convinced he could take out Jon Jones. That is the peak of delusion. The UFC and it's dumbass fanbase glaze British fighters for no reason, they are all the same annoying cocky twats

[@fred338]

WOW. Tom has caused alot of people to be Delusional. He should keep finger and opinion to himself and store there for the Winter.

[@Langers0]

You can’t hate Tom aspinall, articulate, the self awareness and constant strive to be better. What a legend, elite episode

[@thequinlanshow3326]

It is very, very easy to hate him. Dana White privilege to a tee. Didn't earn or deserve that interim title fight at all. Somehow thinks he's actually better than Jon Jones 😂 plus he's an irritating British twat. Very easy to not like him

[@dgfrd1573]

I’m only 15 minutes in but true Geordie is a fantastic interviewer. Articulate and smooth, so easy to listen to.

[@2g4u7y]

Been a fan of Tom since his debut in the UFC. When I saw him get the belt I damn near shed a tear in me pub. Proper gent, role model, and father. I’ve worked with kids with special needs throughout school. Takes a lot of energy and time. Speaks to him as a champion to be able to handle the pressures of both. All love Tom, hope to meet you someday.

[@DmGray]

My introduction to Aspinall beyond existing on cards and being chill was his reaction to the injury (I am somewhat of a lapsed viewer since the pandemic hit, though I still follow the same MMA channels) He really is a special individual. Warm, kind, funny, humble, professional AND an absolute monster in an MMA bout. Whenever I've met "tough guys" the only ones that deserve the title have been similar. They're so tough they don't NEED to be arrogant or aggressive. Anyone displaying those toxic traits is likely nowehere near as tough as they think they are. A genuine role model.
