Tom Aspinall | Swim Grapple Wrestle 

That’s aspiring for greatness hopefully Tom can do it

Does ol tommy boy beat Jones stipe nganou gane? 😳

@@hulkhulk5141 He definitely has a chance vs. all those guys. He has to keep improving though.

@@hulkhulk5141 he could especially Jon Jones who never fought in heavy weight

🤪

Ngannou is tough competition. Contract disputes are on Tom's side

If Francis leaves the ufc then yea probably

Tom will be first man to beat Jones 🇬🇧

Tom can make Francis tired

@@dagwood5041 He submits Francis no problem

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.

Well it sounds like he trains up there semi-regular, so you might be able to catch him next time

@@willmosse3684 I'm not sure how to reply to this without sounding like I'm some kind of stalker but your right after UFC London tonight I'm going to enquire to the gym in Newcastle where he trains while in the North East

Agreed

I think if Derrick Lewis can KO Curtis Tom probably will

I think that's just a reflection on who people are betting on, isn't it? Now Tom is getting more recognition and more people are watching his fights and seeing how dominant he is they're realising he absolutely has the potential to get the belt.

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

The only question is the cardio, because Tom is better than Curtis everywhere, but his speed advantage could come with a cardio disadvantage

@@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..

He’s got his real test in Curtis blaydes. His wrestling is top level and he can strike really well. Curtis was what Tom is now. He’s well experienced and fought all the big names. Anyone who thinks not is underestimating blaydes. I hope Tom has a hard time with him but wins. The experience will do him good. He’s honest about it which shows his intelligence. Very refreshing to see that he’s being real about himself too. He’s right - look at mcgregor ( all the people who loved him now hate him )

Made light work of drago

Tom is top fighter but you can't say that he is undefeated because....he lost twice. No excuses please

@@michaelkrzak5414 yeah, like Izzy said this ain't boxing, we can learn from our losses and move on.
