@@derlycalza5949 ahhh but you see. Here is the kicker. Paddy actually didn’t ask to be paid by hewaini. He said he already had a bunch of interviews that day that where paid so he couldn’t do it. If you’re a poor lad that’s new to the game with hype and already on the up you’re going to pick the paid interviews over the none paid interviews are you not? Think about it! It’s your life and your money and time, you do as you please and make your choices accordingly. Ariel has obviously spat his dummy out after hearing about this. Don’t forget arial is a lot more intelligent and has been in the game a lot longer than paddy, he knows how to spin things. There’s something not right here and I’m telling you. A lot of people have said how much arial is a snake behind the scenes. They can’t all be lying can they?

Belting interview,Toms humbleness and honesty as a person has transferred to MMA,,a true martial artist attitude , to learn from the best available to perfect the techniques which will work in a fight. I believe he is the most rounded and talented Heavyweight I have seen and was gutted when he had his injury... Mow he has got to the bottom of his prior injury problem it will only bring him back stronger .... Tom and Paddy 2 amazing talents from the Northwest ...
Actually very Good interview.. Worth whatever Paddy payed.
I have loved following Tom’s journey. Gutted when the Blaydes fight ended how it did. He’s a bloke who you just wish the best for. Very talented and there is no heavyweight like him. It’s an amazing time for British MMA.
Love this, shout-out for the time stamps, makes the content so stimulating
Brilliant show, both great guys, Tom is a genuinely nice guy! Absolute top quality; started to introduce these shoes to my lads
