Fighting Jon Jones & Becoming UFC Champion! | Tom Aspinall 

Cheers guys 🙌

As an interviewer you absolutely smashed that one Josh. So engaged in the whole thing. And the award for most uncomfortable person in that place goes to ........ Beard! 😅 Love ya both, great episode and keep the good times rolling. Lastly, can't wait for Tom to eventually smash Jones. Dude is hiding and being protected.

holy shit, this is the crossover i didn't know i needed. nice one lads.

Tom is the real deal. I fell out of the sport a long time ago, but recently have been getting back into it and man, I love this guy.

Tom is amazingly positive, focuses on the good from the bad things that has happened to him. So humble,amazing auru and a all round standard bloke who also is arguably the dangerous man on earth in phyiscal combat.

Wow! Great show and really entertaining. Thanks all! Cheers.

Tom is so humble great podcast

Great interview. I watched the wing challenge first and Tom came across as quiet but I guess he was just focused on. Seems very humble and has his head switched on. You guys deffo need to get Paddy and Bisping on for future episodes 🙏

On location! Nicely done.

Josh was fan-girling😂 Great interview, and well done edit bleeping all the no no words 😛

Two proper top lads.. thankyou both 👏

Great episode 🤜🤛

Great podcast this one, glad i got to watch it last week

awesome lads, im a massive UFC fan and you asked a lot of questions than rarely get asked! keep up the good work!

Great Stuff Guys

Love it, the cross over we didn't know we needed ❤❤

Big fan of ufc even bugger fan of you beard, what a sick episode mate.

Great episode watched it early on patreon really nice bloke 👏

40k boys nice one , the numbers are climbing 🎉

Tom the real champ. Love from london

Tom is such a legend and will be world champion

Brilliant.

For some reason videos of this dude crushing food is so interesting to watch

2 of my fav people on a podcast wtf. Greetings from Finland!

Tom incredible as always. Josh is a really good interviewer. Beard should stick to food challenges, almost looked like Tom wanted to sigh at times.

Good guest, and I wasn't expecting you guys to be recording in the restaurant of the challenge. Just wondering, when will you have me on the podcast? Keep it up lads.

What an honest guy Tom is so down to earth. Then you go in the cage he changes to an animal then a gentleman afterwards. Top man

Good Podcast. He's humble for a world champion!

Josh, you smashed it 👏

Wow seems like Tom does not like beard at all 😂😂😂

Some serious mitts on this man.

Best guest you’ve ever had on 👍

More of this please. Top podcast beard. 👍 Nice to watch a podcast where they raise a topic with no agenda other than to let the guest talk. Too many loaded questions in podcasts for me. I personally hate it when interviewers only ask questions so they can give their own opinion.

Never thought I’d see you pair together 😂

Great podcast lad’s thanks. Tom is a great champion he brings much needed class to the sport. He’s earned a right to some very big pay days hopefully Dana steps up 🤞👊😉

Tom represents us Mancs wonderfully. And we all should take a leaf out of his book. He is a humble top bloke. You are my hero mate.

This is crazy

making it a tradition to bring your podcast guests to an AYCE, that is a cool feature. perhaps get eddie hall on in order to show how bad he is at eating - as adam always says. go to a pizza, pancake or sushi place this time perhaps - or even go back to the cake place (jack and beyond), as eddie loves his cheesecake

Tom ya the funking best lad

Man I'd fuckin love a Tom aspinall podcast... He's super chill but he's determined, doesn't fuck about

Interesting guy,with your growing channel you'll be doing arena tours questions &answers with your contacts security shouldn't be a problem. Lol.

I loved this pod serious lads but I can tell it's old coz Anthony fighting on Friday and fury fight postponed

Aspinall to jones: have you ever been koed by an mma fighter? What would it take?

Surprised tom came on this show.

I wonder if they met through Eddie Hall. I've seen Eddie Hall with both of them in videos.

Always liked and respected Tom Aspinall, but he's growing on me even more, not sure if it's the byproduct of him becoming or receiving more media coverage, probably both

wow

Well… when you said you’re getting a new studio… this was not what I expected.

I hate the fact that there’s still people (mostly American jones fans) who deny toms skill and ability, without a doubt in my mind excluding possibility’s of injury obviously I think he will be the best HW of all time and I hope people accept that when he beats Jon if they ever do fight, fight needs to happen because if it doesn’t people will always deny how good Tom really is

Are we going to see them eat on the other channel?

sort the audio levels out, when the ads come on they blow your head off

I know it has Nuffing to do with the video but would be class if Adam done a food challenge at a football stadium in hospitality or try eat out the stadium food

First time seeing this podcast (here to see tom) is there always background noise? Alittle distracting lol

Great interview! Love Tom. But he is the ultimate slow eater in the other video, hehe. Don't hate me Tom!

10:12

WTF, was that a blockbusters behind Josh. 😂😮

Aspinall is the real people’s champ 💯

Jon didn't wanna move up and fight any of the heavyweight champions in their primes. He didn't wanna fucking know about prime velazquez (rightly so because Cain would have been a motherfucker for Jones to deal with in my opinion), he could also have fought prime Jds, Prime Werdum who was demolishing Jones teammates consistently (he thought that if Belfort could nearly take his arm off, god knows what would have happened in this match up)he didn't wanna know about prime stipe either. When asked about this potential match up around in 2017-2018 from memory I reckon he answered that it was one thing to fight a heavyweight another thing to fight a good heavyweight. He didn't wanna face do at heavyweight either he would rather fight a drained to 205 38 year old Daniel cormier at ufc 214 but had to cheat to secure a victory (de had the balls to step up directly after beating volkan to ko stipe while being 39 and 5'9 and fat as hell despite stipe being on an absolute run of 3 consecutive title defenses including a last impressive victory in Boston albeit against a 4 year in MMA inexperienced Ngannou with holes in his game at that point wrestling and grappling wise but who was incredibly dangerous nevertheless... ...The first time we ever heard about a real potential move up was against Brock after he beat de the second time but guess what he tested positive for steroids (oh | shouldn't have mentioned that sorry) ...even though he walked around at the same weight as the heavyweights I mentioned on fight night. He only wants to fight stipe because he is in his 40s and hasn't won a fight since 2020 and got absolutely demolished in one of the most one siding, brutal beat downs and best title winning performance ever by Francis Ngannou (best heavyweight ever IMO but that's unpopular). You said the first time ngannou called him out was in 2021, I may be wrong but I fully remember ngannou calling him out even in 2019 and in 2020 once the ufc restarted during the pandemic (Twitter exchanges between both fighters show that. Jones even dared compare the danger of facing ngannou to Thiago santos despite not being able to finish the latter on one knee). He didn't wanna face Francis unless he got paid 30 mil, didn't wanna fight Sergei who was the next top ranked guy after Gane (extremely one dimensional fighter with no wrestling and grappling defense by the way), doesn't wanna face Aspinall to unify the belt. At what point do his fans(there seem to be kind of a cult going on with morons claiming that he would never lose regardless of age, lack of peds or the weightclass) get tired of making excuses for all these fights not happening and realize the 1 common denominator.

Mike Perry

Jones has your card tommy boy

Why are we not seeing Aspinal vs Cyril Gane?

Great guest. Not sure why Beard has to look at the camera every time he speaks.

The best heavyweight mma has seen since Fedor!

Tom Aspinall will be the goat of the heavyweight division

10:23 awkward much

I never seen him mention Ciryl. That guy can beat Tom and Tom beats Jones

Best line is I think I might have to let him win 😂

Hope Tom doesn’t wait around for another fight, imagine bugging out to PFL and fighting ngannou 😂

Tom taking out the boogieman of the division while Jones does everything in his power to hide from the pair of them, all the while stalling the division, all but confirms that Tom is the real heavyweight champion.

are you doing a poddy in a restaurant???

Adam, you kept trying to bring the conversation around to you, and it didn’t work. It shouldn’t work, actually. The interview was with Tom, his career, his future, not you, or yours. Could have left your contribution out for a better result. Josh had everything well under control. Josh, you’re a great interviewer.

Bruh they need to fight there's two belts in the heavyweights it's not right can't have two champions this is the easiest match up ever

The title means nothing these days, just create an interim title just to add a trinket to a PPV, but ultimately it's as worthless as the BMF title. Not taking anything from Aspinall at all, he should be the next challenger, but it's stupid decisions like this that make the titles worthless in the sport, but money is money at the end of the day. Eventually though Aspinall will get his undisputed title fight.

Aspinall would beat Tyson Fury and Jon Jones if given the chance

Owww godddddd..... Beard 😬😬😬😬😬. Love your content. But you came off so bad in this. You dont need to play upto the camera

jimmy hill ain't beating jones

Have you seen him eat wings ? He's a female

Tom would kill jones

Love the videos beard but you came across a bit off in this podcast - the other guy interviewing is good but don't know if this type of content is as suited to you - doesn't feel as natural. Gotta let Tom speak and stop making it about you all the time!

Wrong Tom there's only one real champion. One is interim.

Why do ya want to get into making internet content? Erm Money lol

unfortunately, he can't win against jon jones.

boring.. beat a few guys at heavyweight and doesn't stop going on about jon jones

Fucking hell they’ll give anyone a podcast now won’t they 🤦‍♂️
