Way to humanize the commitment to being a fighter. A gem of a LIFE lesson when Tom’s dad said “the goal is to drill bad positions to the point where no more bad positions exist.” Great content.

To see Tom Aspinall and Paul Craig, two of the most humble and real fighters out there, train together is such a sight. I really do hope he wins another big main event!

Tom doing his thing while being himself. I love it, hard to find these days, there are lots of fake personas. He just gets it, the things most important in life. And he shows it every time he fights.

One of the best pieces of content I've seen yet on Full Reptile and that's saying something! Excellent stuff Mistry!

Got goosebumps when he said he's trying to be one of the best fighters that's ever walked the face of the earth. I know it's something all fighters say but you can tell he means it plus I think he actually already is now

Big fan of Paul craig. Great seeing them train together

A great role model for not just the northeast but for men in general - tough without being macho, confident but not arrogant, authentic and genuine

Best of the best. Future WC & GOAT in heavyweight division. Blessed to have an amazing dad and family behind him. Stay strong.

Tom doesn't get what chael is trying to say, talking shit is not the only way to promote yourself he doesn't have to Colby or Connor to promote himself, it's about creating the narrative. For example, he should be pushing this fight to be the number one contenders match, he should be pushing for getting a shot at the interim tittle, we all like Francis and he doesn't have to talk shit about him but the reality is that he is going to be out for more than a year and even more time if wants to take time to box fury, and why should the guys like tom and Curtis that keep the division alive not be rewarded while Francis stales the division? it's not fair and that's a narrative tom can take, that's what Chael means, no need to talk shit it's about creating narratives Like Chael mentioned, if Stipe and Jones fight why should they get the interim fight? One of them had to be woken up to be told he is no longer the champion and the other one is a light heavyweight who arguably lost his last 2 fights. The winner of tom va blaydes should fight the winner of gane vs Tuivasa for the interim title and keep the division alive until Francis decides to return, because we still don't know if the guy is even gonna fight again in the UFC That's the narrative Tom should be putting out there. That's how he can promote himself to a title shot.

This was brilliant better than alot of the stuff you see ufc put out and Tom's a brilliant guy I hope he gos all the way

Nice job, Jamie! This was a treat

Really really enjoyed that episode - great content ❤️‍🔥

If there was ever a way of encapsulating and transferring the fundamental principals of martial arts across to the practice of journalism, full repltile has found that way. From the ground up I can’t express enough my appreciation for the work you do and continue to do. Keep up the good work, It doesn’t go unnoticed.

Loved this video belting set of lads! More of these

Love it, keep em coming. Exactly what us fans love seeing 👍

Thank you so much for this. I love to see the work done before the great ufc fights

That new back tattoo is real nice

Great work and content!

Tom's scrambles are scary fast for a HW!

loving every step of aspinalls career

Awesome episode!

Chael is like a strict stepfather to Tom.

Wow! This was amazing to watch 👍

As other have said this is great content; well done Full Reptile team. But this also this is going to do wonders for UK MMA. Getting it on KZread to help inspire the next great fighters.

One beast of a man. This how training should be, testing ourselves to the limits, putting ourselves in the most uncomfortable situations and coming out on top.

this is incredible. Tom has been my favourite fighter since the Arlovski fight and he will be for a decade more im sure

Tom looking great. For me it’s hard to believe the bookies had Blaydes the slight favourite up until 1 week ago. Now the odds are set exactly the same. If I had a proper few quid everything would be going on Aspinall. He’s looking a million here

Yeah I was surprised Blaydes was the favorite too, but Blaydes has been the favorite in every single fight his entire career, so the fact that the odds opened that close are telling. Now the fans have pushed them the other way. I def think Tom takes it and is a future champ

@@mistaschaub3280 Yeah but CURTIS WAS BEATING LEWIS ON THE FEET. In fact, he only had trouble when he went for a takedown. Blaydes stand up is underrated, and Tom does get hit. Look at Arlovski fight. Blaydes is fresh, bigger and explosive compared to Arlovski..

Good to see Full Reptile in sunderland hew ;))

What a lovely bloke. I watched this by accident thinking it was a wild swimming film. This fella is a real gent. Good luck with his career

Props for Tom not falling for the chael sonnen advise and just being a genuine dude. Real Champs don't have to play a character ya know

cracking gear Mistry as always mate

Awesome video!

Aspinall will be the longest reigning heavyweight champ of all time

Great fckn content - jeez there really aren’t many heavyweights/LH in the UK are there. Shows how much of a small community the UK mma scene still is. Thanks for a wicked insight and hopefully this inspires more to get involved in the best sport in the world!

Damn good video lads

Great film, brilliant that it gives the fighters space to speak themselves without building fake drama or dramatic tension for the sake of it. Also, makes me feel a lot better about my own masculinity that the UFC's Tom Aspinall also says "Ow" as he walks over shingle to the sea.

Best fight camp content I have ever watched.

Legend. Really loving Tom. Awesome down to earth dude.

Great video, Tom's looking in amazing shape, always love hearing from Paul Craig

Let's gooo Tom! Win this and your on track for a belt fight soon

Great video

Keep doing what you’re doing Tom. Impressive as hell.

Great stuff 👏

Great Video. Love Tom.

i hope y'all restock full reptile stickers soon! I'd definitely be down to buy a couple of packs.

Great video. That's Tom and his dad down to a T. We have only seen a glimpse of his repertoire. Toms is a dark horse the best is yet to come.

I remember jumping in the Sea up North, just into Scotland. I was 12-13yr old, never been in since and i'm 45 now lol. I'd need at least a Grand to get in that water :)

Phenomenal as always master hardy. I love aspinall. The respect he shows Blades is not what you see with great fighters. But I want him to take him and have that strap. I know he can win that fight. The skill set, the humility, and the drive to be the best.I hope Tom will hold that world champion strap.

What a guy, can’t wait to see him do the business in London next week

Paul Craig's hair is looking as strong as his juijitsu 💪

Great stuff as always 👏👏Tom v grounded and his old man a UK Jiu Jitsu pioneer 👌

This is amazing. Tom's Dad is a legend.

Craig & Aspinall = Smesh Bros 2.0

He’s like the guy you wish you knew growing up just says what needs to be said to your face and is a hard honest man. But he will also g you up when you need it. He has a wicked personality 👌🏼

Also great little piece, and awesome insight, I love how the Brits are coming up.

There is not a man on God's green earth that is more dangerous than Tommy Aspinall. He's got everything you look for in a fighter: world class wrestling, granite chin, power in both hands, and the heart of a lion. On top of that he has all of the intangibles: great personality, funny, charismatic, ripped body, cute smile, etc. The man has absolutely ZERO holes in his game. He's trained with Tyson Fury in boxing and has trained in BJJ his whole life. AND he moves like a middleweight! This is the future of fighting everybody. You are looking at an all time great. Nobody is beating Tommy EVER. I'm still in shock lol... He is a special once in a generation talent.🇬🇧👊🇬🇧👊🇬🇧🤜

Fuck yes, pleasantly surprised to see Paul CREEG

Big up Tom, can’t wait till the 23rd. He’s destined for gold. 🙏

I personally think it’s a breath of fresh air in todays day and age to see humility in a top contender. Keep up the good work Tom

Good stuff

Tom Aspinall is the man, what a journey for him, from not getting opponents in the UK to now being one of the biggest Heavyweight UFC stars, his win over Volkov was a masterclass 👏👏👏👏

Makes me want to get back to the gym even though my rusty body will hate me.. there's nothing like it.

He's looking in very good shape . Come on tom you got this

Tom & Paul are so much fun to watch. Straight Killers 🔥
