Couldn’t agree more with Tom when he was talking about Gane, guy thought he could get to the title without having to risk it against Tom and now that a belt is on the line he’s comfortable taking the risk. Whereas Tom just risked everything taking a fight against the most dangerous guy in the division on two weeks notice, he can call the shots now and Gane can get to the back of the line

He's got a point about Gane because even recently, Gane was saying fighting Aspinall made no sense to fight down, and nobody really knows who he is for it to be worth the risk. Tom took the risk with this short notice fight, and it paid off. If Gane is now wanting to fight him, then I guess he knows Tom carries weight now he did Pavlovich in 69 seconds.

Not a single hole in his fighting style. Go watch all his matches, all finalized. Dana is bringing him in UFC really soon. Go watch his matches.

And yet people try to forget that it took this juice head three years to be « ready » to move to heavyweight when he was walking around 235 240 at lhw and he clearly didn’t wanna fucking face ngannou…and rightfully so because Francis(especially the composed version who demolished stipe in the rematch who had wrestling)would have been a motherfucker for jones to deal with. Same as a prime cain Velasquez. Jones didn’t even fancy a move into that weight class until he beat Cormier the second time around(while being on steroids)and for the first time called out the mighty Brock lesnar. The fight didn’t materisalised because he got popped and got suspended. When he came back though there was no willingness to move up and face prime stipe unlike dc who stepped up despite being 5feet 10 and as chubby as you a Macdonald worker.

Jones and Connor have the highest ticket price in the industry. The cheapest sit in the Jones vs Stipe fight is 1200 dollars while the highest ticket is 100k dollars.

One of the most talented fighters, brings a complete skill set that for the most part is lacking in the heavyweight, there may be some guys who hit slightly harder, there may be some who grapple slightly better, but there is nobody who brings those qualities together like Aspinall, at HW. I was leaning toward Sergei, had seemed very 'scary' to quote what you guys were saying. Clearly Tom more than rose to the occasion. Very happy, was a great card, and this was, for me, the highlight.

Decided to call out a fighter who is coming off a loss, Tai tuivasa who is a very easy match up for him.

Northern English need editing sometimes 😆, paddy would be still popular if his people told him hes too 90iq to be spreading his opinions on things .

Legend in the making. Mike interview skills… brilliant

Hell yeah Tom! awesome to hear from Andy as well love it!!!

When a father is dedicated to his child ❤️

Andy Aspinall what a man! that's how you should represent yourself, John fury should take notes😂

Without John Fury boxing would be so boring. We all love John fury. He is the best!

The last question was classic😂

Love to see Tom being a lot more confident nowadays, I remember when he was coming up and saying he wanted to take it slow and not rush, but he seems to be much happier with it now, good lad!

He didn't want to be some kind of hype train from the UK

What a beast, future of the Heavyweight Division. Absolute class act, well played Tom. You're going to be king for a long time

LOL he won one fight... LOL you casuals are hilarious.

Loving this more assertive Tom. Fuck Gane get that Stipe fight then smash Jones. Great interview Mike.

Great interview. I'm not sure if Mike was promoting the Gane fight for the UFC but I got that feeling, he didn't have much of an answer for why not Stipe.

Cheers for that BISPING you’re a legend at this stuff

I’ve had those back spasms Tom is talking about. They definitely disable you from doing anything. Props to him for fighting through it

Phenomenal show as always Master bisping. It is so good to see Tom at the top of his game and the champion of the world! His father is an inspiration as well. It's awesome to see this happen to someone who is so kind. Congratulations champ! 👍🏽👍🏽

Loving it

Brilliant interview!

Great interview. I really like this kid n liked him when he first came into the UFC . I’m big goon like him and I noticed his speed and agility and that’s a huge advantage. I was a speedy agile compared to most guys who are just strong but slow you know what I mean . Sure they can do damage but the athletic ability will take you higher on whatever sport you compete in

Amazing story, can tell how proud Andy is. He could sit and talk about his son until his last breath.

What a unit & he's ours 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Tom is lucky to have Bisping as a friend! Bisping seems like a good soul.

Let them undo their own Legacy’s Tom. It’ll say more when you look back in ten years than begging Jon for a fight he clearly doesn’t want

When bisping said "Oh my werd,BABY BOY" I felt that

3 Years he can surpass HW GOAT accolades. 5 Years he can be an all time GOAT. Remember, 265 title defenses count for literally double any other title defenses.

I Totally agree with Tom Aspinall, his dad is so cool :)

We need to shout out Andy Aspinall for raising and coaching a superb human and a great fighter 👌

Was watching the Francis and Cyril fight earlier today, Cyril really is no where near as fast as Tom.

Feel for Tom. Having just won gold to basically be then told you’ll have to wait a minimum of 18 months for a shot against stipe or Jones and even then it’s not guaranteed. For someone with a desire to be the greatest must be frustrating

There is nothing to feel sorry for about him. He was not the number 1 or 2 ranked guy. The only reason he got the shot for an interim title against Sergie is because Jones has already beat the Gane who was ranked higher than Tom. The fact that Tom is being ungrateful and calling for Jones to be stripped is one of the most click and disrespectful things i have seen in awhile.

@scom5918

Fair point about the rankings but it was the UFC who asked Tom to step in for the interim. Otherwise why not have it as a number 1 contender fight? They needed Tom in that moment as I guarantee he was the only one who would accept against Sergei that short notice. So, they owe him one for sure

Huge Aspinall fan. Fantastic talent. Can't wait to see where this takes him next. Would love to see him and Jones tbh. One can wish :)

Cool to see a humble father/son team make it all the way to the top!

He shouldn't need to be stripped, he should have been man enough to give up his title, just like Jiri and Jamahal did.

Lol he literally did give up his lhw title rofl, so you're saying he should give up 2 titles? 😅 now that'd be a record

Tom is the version of Andy if he had the powers of Shazam 😅

I RECKON YOU DID HIM A MASSIVE FAVOUR BISPING WITH THE LITTLE TALK YOU HAD WITH HIM ABOUT PUTTING THE FIGHT INTO PERSPECTIVE. TELLING HIM ITS NOT TWO WEEKS OF FIGHT CAMP, ITS ABOUT THE MANY YEARS OF HARD WORK ETC
