Love seeing fighters talk to up and coming interviewers. Keep up the good work and dont be a dick. Those are the best pieces of advice anyone can give you my friend. Especially in MMA. 🎉🎉

[@lebraa]

3 more fights and tom is a superstar

[@starseeddeluxe]

Tom is already the greatest MMA fighter ever. He holds the record in the UFC for the fastest average fight time. I think Jon Jones has the record for longest average fight time? Dana will apologize in the future for the miscalculation of not promoting Tom Aspinall properly.

[@seandavis9320]

Greatest ever is a stretch but he could become the best heavyweight if he defends successfully enough

[@jordanramage2365]

Good interview lad, keep it up

[@KellyBurnett138]

Enjoyed this immensely, thank you. 🤗

[@solidpooz]

Good conversation between the two finest Hapsburg jaws in the nation

[@kevinowens9581]

Nice one mate

[@ertjg]

hey can you tell tom aspinall to share the song "lonely boy" by the black keys to trashtalk jon jones ? cuz it fits the situation perfectly, it would really look badass (garage rock like we no longer do, sounds really english)

[@padraigohanlon980]

The whole bit with bouncer and cow shite was a laugh

[@Kingcostaforever]

I couldn’t help but relate

[@DodgeyHodgey]

I like your interview style...subbed

[@Kingcostaforever]

Thank you, always try to show a more fun and open side to the fighters, this was a great one

[@justinlyle7831]

Tom is the modern-day Frank Mir

[@RoyalFlush1998]

Cmon Tom lad, avenge that BS loss 👑👑👑👍🏻

[@MNToThat]

Its funny.. Even for an amateur sport, GAA players still pop for steroids so what does that tell us about pro sports...? Just discovered this channel. Great to see Aspinall supporting up-and-coming MMA media. Subbed our boy!

[@MNToThat]

Some really interesting questions too

[@Kingcostaforever]

Thank You brother appreciate it very much❤❤

[@fred3831]

Good interview 👍

[@MMASquad]

[@MogMonster87]

Nice shirt bro 👍🏻

[@user-fw7iv4nt6n]

Keep ur head up Tom I know the jones situation unfair but you are strong

[@ItsameAlex]

awesome

[@luisitocrisostomo687]

Tom The truth you can beat all of them your strong and faster and smart 👍💪

[@rc6149]

Why they ask him a question like he the champ?

[@imemine8605]

We get 1 ppv on a year in the uk with all uk gighters on it its a joke its at 5am imo

[@justinouimet6365]

yah that is bs

[@surferrosa7285]

Absolute garbage. Constant events on in the US. One or two events a year in Europe if we're lucky and they do that. Go way and shite UFC

[@Epoxyfloorsin1day]

Fire the barber

[@Gurusson-qr5np]

Is that a scottish accent?

[@inyourface127810]

How unfortunate the division is being held up in this manner. Like Chandler waiting and waiting for Conor

[@justsayin7744]

At least the chandler and Conor fight is relatively meaningless title wise. Chandler was holding himself up. It’s a pity the jones-stipe fight was made when it was - tom was still coming back from injury. Tom should go back up for it - I can’t see stipe making the walk for some reason

[@martinconnor5209]

​​@@justsayin7744 Jones will never agree to Tom as back up. He will never fight Tom because he knows deep down that he can't handle him.

[@justsayin7744]

@@martinconnor5209 true. It’s a pity the heavyweight champ is a cherry picker!

[@BamOn742]

Wtf has chandler n macgregor got to do with belts😂😂😂 casual

[@BamOn742]

His def Tommy Furys long lost son😂

[@tuffneggah]

jones would break tom

[@erickouma5111]

All games for Tom to lose so that the hype to smash Jones would be off..hope he defends it clean Mate👊 And we have a heavyweight belt,should be stripped, disgusting..Jake Paul of MMA,sizeable dynamic guy whoop you like Reyes and Gustafson

[@teacopem]

Not if he actually tried

[@beaualoevv]

l ko’d Tom Aspinall tf out at a house party in Liverpool in 2021. My friend has the video.

[@TheWild90]

Cool story bro.....

[@MogMonster87]

I think you might just be mentally ill mate

[@PluggedInNOW]

Cool fantasy bro

[@markruss7922]

Black belt in bullshit

[@teacopem]

You worm

[@sandman62100]

People forget that Blaydes knocked out Tom due to a checked kick. Tom is so focused on Jones that he's forgetting he has a killer in front of him. No offense but I think Blaydes will knock him out again.

[@RoyalFlush1998]

Blaydes didn’t check the kick tho, Tom landed a kick and his bad knee just gave out, pretty much a freak accident, very unfortunate shoulda been a no contest, glad they’re running it back now tho

[@sandman62100]

@@RoyalFlush1998 so I'm guessing Chito didn't beat Sean or Dustin didn't beat Conor since these were just freak accidents. When you step into the cage, you accept the outcome of the fight win, lose or draw. Nobody goes into a fight perfectly healthy and you cannot discredit a legitimate victory. I noticed that people from the UK tend to whine a lot and are kind of bitter. In America, we are a tough and gritty type of people. We don't make excuses and we just put our heads down and get to work. Curtis exemplifies this.

[@lostprophecy7593]

He had partially tore his ACL in training camp and tore it during the fight. Please stop spreading misinformation

[@sandman62100]

@@lostprophecy7593 so what? Conor McGregor broke his leg in half BEFORE he fought Dustin. Does that mean he didn't get beat?

[@sandman62100]

@@lostprophecy7593 it was a beautiful check by Curtis that broke Tom. He is kind of weak mentally so instead of fighting through it he quit. Thiago Santos fought through two town ACL's against Jones. People like myself wouldn't just lay down and accept defeat like Tom did. Shameful.
