He totally is. Bisping loves and believes in Aspinall! I do too. He is the best fighter I've seen for a long time. In my humble opinion.

An actual "Good Guy" in the fight game is rare, Tom is a real breath of fresh air, no way on gods green earth will he ever get big headed or go down the wrong roads, he has great friends and family around him. A true champion in more ways than one.

Other countries are now learning the full skillset. In the UK there's no wrestling knowledge for example. Lots of tough guys though and they'll catch up. Aspinall is prime beef.
I hope Tom is a champion for a long time, amazing guy and an amazing fighter. Very happy for him.

@@garnetsamuel5320I’m English and I’d agree based on the body of work. But on current circumstances with Jon being older and Tom on the rise it would be the only guy that has a real chance of beating him. Toms speed is what would beat jon.

tbh i don't think any doubt in the result was about who was the better fighter, just who would land first. Tom is more versatile and flows through range so well I find it hard to believe anybody thought, skill-for-skill, Pavlovich was the better man.

The crew you had for the rest of the ufc 295 post show was a perfect combination for the medium. Please keep this cast the chemistry and personalities really worked well it was a pleasure to watch
Aspinall looks like he’s hanging out with the three dwarves… he’s HUGE
The father son bond aspinall has, as a father myself. I can’t imagine how proud his is.
Am so happy for Tom. He's got everything to be the greatest. I'd like for him to beat Gane and humble him. Submit him even.

This was a nice genuine interview, you can see they were truly happy for Tom. Tom has some magic powers to easily make people like him. I don’t think I have been happier for someone I don’t know as I was watching that fight.
Delighted for Tom. A great young lad.
LFG, Tom! Well done bro. Shout to Bisping for backing him since the beginning. You boys make us proud 🏴 (and Leon) 🤛🏼 💪🏼 🍻
Let that be a lesson! He has all the tools, but he needs to go first, especially in this heavyweight division. Big congratulations to Tom Aspinall.🙏
Now that's a champion so happy for Tom and Michael Bisping

Insane. Love em both.
Geeeeeeet up there Tom, what a fighter 👏
Crazy ..... Mirkro Cro Cop. Elite!!! All his kicks... Ove the heads. And a graze bounce off!! To not be stuck. Crazy. Wilder Bomber shot too!!!
What a man, I absolutely love Tom, from Atherton too my own kind. What a shining example. Everest road 😉
Hes so quick impressive win 👏💪
Such a good dude. Im as happy as i was for leon
I know his first two losses came early in his career but its so hard to imagine someone beating him, they must have taught him proper valuable lessons
Let’s Go!! BIG TOM ASPINALL. And DC owes Mike and Big Tom an apology for the DISRESPECT
Absolute 💎 of a man great character 🤙
The north west of England man, produces beasts😂 BKFC champ, UFC HW champ, boxing HW champ…:…Crazy.
Bisping is there like a very proud mentor 🎊 🎉🎉
How Amazing!!! Nazim vs SLava CLaus!!! Crazy!! Red Lead.. Blu control and take over!! Awesome Boxing!!!!
Heavyweight Boxing Champ and Heavyweight MMA Champ both from England 🏴
this guy has everything to reign for a long time
he's just so fricking quick for his size
Lets go tom power poncher you just showed total skill and speed with powerful punches 👊 what a win
Crazily, Aspinall both ignored and took Bisping's advice. He might have charged in, he might have got clipped once but his head movement was on point tonight and he found short bursts of space where he needed to regardless of the ring. The true champion right now if Jones really doesn't sack up and face him, Stipe or not.
What a guy
Toms rise to the top was inevitible. We only saw 10% of his skillset last night
Bisping paved the way for European fighters, Tom looks up to him as a big brother and hero well done Tom and Bispingggg
Seems like a solid guy, congrats 👏🏾
7:07 the look on Bisping’s face was so funny
Thank you Tom and dziękujemy !!! 🍻🥟
Tom is by far Jon Jones toughest competition. The size, the speed, the movement, the striking, the ground game, the fight IQ. If anyone ever had a chance to beat Jon, its this version of Aspinall.

Tom legend!!!
Tom is the HW champ we've all been waiting for.
Let’s gooooo!
His hands are so fast for a big guy 😮
Ooh man is hardest fight is probably be dealing with UK media, now that he is champion. Good luck and stay focused!!
Imagine seeing the day when Brett Okamoto shows personality and takes the lead. Good on him.
Wow!!! Glad I'm not a betting man. Would have lost big time. Really thought Sergei was going to knock Tom out. We have a new champion in the making...
Look how tall he stands, what a unit, how’s laughing now hey? Love you brother
They need to run this one back this fight could have gone either way, whats crazy to me is that he was able to recover after getting rocked early
A star..
How quick was this video put up 🤯
Next up should be gane. That's a good one for sure
Crazy!!! The People's Choice!! Aspinall!! Near Champ!!
The HW king!!!👊🏼🏴 👑
this was always on the cards for tom...super talented...but he just took out the boogeyman and made it look easy!!!!!!!.......great stuff mate.
I thought he was in trouble when Sergei slightly rocked him at the beginning but he came back so strong.
I saw the preview... Wide SERGY. Could be stopped By Jones... Then Preview Aspinall... Great work.. chances to change Boxing to Jones!!!
Tom didnt even have a training camp and took the fight on 2 weeks notice what a fighter makes me proud to be english
so awesome 6isping on there
Top bloke.
I need gane vs aspinal now man am ready for that fight
