Respect to Tom for ADMITTING that he felt nervous and had fear.
All of them do, except for dudes like Wanderlei Silva
tom kills jon jones. jon pssy jones literally said he wont fight tom bc he is too young for him
even i was feeling so scared for him when he faced and hugged sergei LOL
The men who accept that they feel fear before a fight always win.
@razzprince2877 but if both have fear ? A draw lol
So happy for Tom Aspinall, such a classy guy, humble respectful, well deserved win 👏👏👏👏👏
Yeeee
I mean who wants to see Jones fighting Stipe more than Jones vs Tom? It's just crazy.. I love Stipe, he was a great champion and such a nice dude. But the guy is 42 years old, his last fight was a loss and his last win was back in 2020. How can this be a fight for the title? Doesn't make any sense..
I agree. Stipe’s last win was in 2020 and we saw how badly Francis beat him up.
Stipe is done, has like 3 years ring rust, got messed up by wars with DC and Ngannou, also got KOed by Ngannou… I really don’t know why so many people want to see Jones Vs Stipe…
@@V-95Kjust Jones fans wanting him to stay pad
Makes perfect sense actually. The guy he was always meant to rematch against for the title left the company. He’s the GOAT heavyweight of all time. Give him his shot to prove it.
Dana has lost his mind
He's THE champion. Forget the Interim belt, he owns the real belt too. Jones wont fight these guys, he wanted Stipe at 42 who arguably is well past peak form. Then once he beats Stipe he will retire as well, and not let a younger guy like Aspinall go for what is rightly his.
Agreed, Jones vs Stipe isn’t a true title fight. The “true” belt belongs to Tom, he’s interim champ. Therefore, if Jones next fight is against Stipe (and not Tom), it shouldn’t be for the belt. Either Stipe has to come get the interim belt off Tom, or Jon gets stripped of the belt & Jon vs Stipe is a non title fight
tom kills jon jones. jon pssy jones literally said he wont fight tom bc he is too young for him
Jon fought Ciryl Gane a live active younger guy than him for his first fight at heavyweight coming off a lay off, you guys are talking like Jon makes a habit of ducking everyone, you only have to look into his history to see that he has always taken risks in his career, I get you’re all fan boying over Tom right now, I’m a Brit myself so I’m happy to see him doing well but come on lol, what jones has achieved and done for this sport if he wants to fight stipe which is still a legacy fight then retire then let him, Tom will just pick up the vacated belt against someone easier, either way if he’s good enough he’ll still be a champion at some point.
@@UncleKnobbiesInc You are 100% spot on my friend. But we know Dana always treats this like a business and Jon vs Stipe will be for the Heavyweight title with Aspinall sitting front row with the Interim Belt EVEN though Jon will probably face Stipe and retire.
Jones couldn't even beat Reyes
Great day for British and Polish MMA, Tom won belt on National independence Day in Poland.
All the vest Tom, powodzenia 😊
Sounds about as Polish as a Zulu.
@@doug6500 he's half Polish half British
@@zilo2322 he speak polish quite well, he's mom is polish for sure , also I've heard about his wife in MMA related portals in Poland
Tom definitely has a touch of Polish Power
@kazbba He isn't half Polish
He's got good character... Casually eating pizza while holding the belt in an interview. Tom Aspinall will be an iconic champion! May his career grow with wild and impressive expectations.
Absolute clinic big Tom. Seeing him eat those flush shots and still stay composed was seriously impressive. What a man 💪🏻
"eat those flush shots" "Absolute clinic" lol
@@AlxThSeal well he took Pav’s full shot clean to the chin, then ducked Pav’s next combination and said “anything you can do I can do better” and got the KO artist on a 6 win 6 KO streak out of there in 1 minute. If you don’t find that an impressive performance then I don’t know what else to say. Not to mention on 2 and a half weeks notice
What are you on about lad?
You can't say someome ate clean shots and put on a clinic lmao, it's one or the other
@@AlxThSeal course you can. Put on a clinic in respect of KOing the KO artist. No one else had been able to expose him, looked like child’s play
Tom is the real champ. Forget JJ not vacating, holding up the division, and then only wanting to fight Stipe when he eventually comes back.
Doesn't make any sense bro, dealing with casuals who want to see Stipe vs Jones instead of Tom vs Jones is frustrating. How can a guy who hasnt fought 2 years, his last fight was a loss and his last win was back in 2020 adds more to your legacy than beating a guy like Tom, who embarrasses every heavyweight he's been put in front of. IDK. For me its either Tom vs Jones or Tom vs the winner of Gane vs Almeida for the vacant belt if Jones doesn't want to come back
He should fight the HW goat before he fights the interim champ
Tom isn’t a champion. There’s only one real champion per weight class. The interim belts are passed out like candy now instead of serving their original purpose. If he beats Jon Jones then he’ll be a champion.
@@miggs80kom Jones vs gane vs basically an interim match, I mean Jones isn't gonna fight anyone but stipe, and when he dies the belt vaccanta and Tom becomes the champion so he basically is already a champ
tom kills jon jones. jon pssy jones literally said he wont fight tom bc he is too young for him
Glad he's calling out Jones, let's see what the Higher table says about that! 🎉
Congratulations Tom! 🎊
Congratulations Tom!!! We are so proud of you here in England!!! Wow! 😮👊🏼🏴👑
Tommy Two-Knees! Proud of you lad!
What an absolute legend.
WOW 2 weeks notice then gets a back injury where he couldnt walk for 3 days then walks in and finishes a very very dangerous opponent... And what a humble nice guy he his too... BEAST ... Another 🇬🇧 to take the belt...
He's very good ngl i really underestimated him, his so fast and Accurate.
For someone who has rational emotions, fear and nerves, he's very good at managing it. It's a common theme with this era of UK MMA. Apart from Paddy, they all understand the nature of themselves and what they're doing, they're open about feeling scared. They're also extremely high level fighters.
Those traits and attributes are usually found on all time greats or GOAT in their respective sports. You combine this with his humility and I'm not sure UFC can script a better champion to carry the sport and division after Frances left.
lol paddy no joke either is Jared kid has one bad performance and was injured fighting away from home
The honey badger has struck 😂 congratulations champ.. You are badass 💪🏿🎉💐💐🎊❤️
Aspinall beats scary pavlovich without preparation
Imagine what if he prepared
He can now lay claim to most dangerous fighter…… well done Tom Aspinall
im from ukand i had no doubt tom would win take nothing away from sergei hes a beast but tom is a all rounder and he is the future congrats big man even got up at 430 on my only day off in the week
KING ASPINALL IS HERE TO STAY! JOHN WHO? YOU ARE LOOKING AT THE MAN END OF, ALL LOVE TOM, REMZ UK GLOUCESTER
As Pavlovich's fan I have to say, it was a very close fight. And clear KO so its deserved win
sergei will be back he wont beat tom but he beats most hes a beast
Very close😂 kurac
Big JBJ fan but I wouldn’t mind Aspinall caring the torch into the future. This guy is a monster!
I’d be raging at the lack of toppings on that pizza. Absolutely shameful
U gotta commend McKenzie for her professionalism, interviewing Tom after he just Ko'd her husband.
lol
Similar name, but it wasn’t
her husband.
I know we are talking about Jones but imagine Ngannou vs Aspinall that would be unreal.
Top fighter top lad, absolutely made up for him!
More of Pavacich. Real sexy, got humor, and asks good questions
Woah 😮 enough simping
@@NellyGandhella XD I know good stuff when I see it. Your salt puts the Dead Sea to shame
Congratulations Champ 🎉
Aspinall vs Stipe next makes the most sense and the winner will obviously fight Jon. Jon is gonna be out for at least 6-8 months so Tom Aspinall doesn’t want to be inactive for that long. Aspinall vs Miocic next please!
Anyone who has watchsd jon jones, knows he loves that oblique kick. I can imagine that will be a focus point in his training camp
Tom "Honeybadger" Aspinal !!!
Another w what a performance
Tom didn’t even have to tell us the fear he felt. We could see the relief on his face the second the fight was stopped. He probably had nightmares of the fight. So happy he pulled it off. And he made me some money lol
I really like how he talks, he seems goofy but also trustworthy.
Well Done mate
ABSOLUTE BEAST ! 👊💥
Tom lad. Very hard not to like. Hope he puts a string of defences together
Tom vs Jones let’s do it. Great knockout even though I was for Sergei. Holly shit this guy has some crazy power and speed
He's gonna be the heavyweight GOAT. We've just not seen a heavyweight like him.
well he is so good bur FRANCIS NGANNOU will certainly laught at your comment
Francis is not on the same level grappling wise, he'd get subbed no probs. @@danielatlas7059
Genuine question... apart from power, what advantages do you think Francis has over Tom? Tom is definitely bigger, definitely faster, better kicks and better grappling. @@danielatlas7059
@@danielatlas7059 why? Francis isn’t heavyweight goat
Tom embraced his inner Honey badger 🦡 ..👍🏽😀
Love you Tom you’re the man 😎
Well done Tom👍
big tom!!!
Tom, thank you and dziękujemy !!! 🍻🥟
A lot of people said NO WAY !! You are the man !!
she has to be standing on a chair 😂
KING
Go ed Tom, enjoy Christmas as the CHAMP!
Fear is good and Tom has definitely great empathy also. Honey badger Tom whoops Jon Jones ass i really believe. So amazing interview
I thought pavlovich would win but tom is a class act a deserving champion.
So many people said he would get knocked out. He took Sergei’s hardest punch, but he could not take Tom’s punch. I honestly won’t be surprised if we see a rematch, because who else will beat Sergei? Jones in Stipe will both retire after their fight.
What impressed me the most about Aspinal:
Before finishing the fight he took a flush left hook and glancing overhand right from Pavlovich. Who else? No one.
GSP and Jones top 2 of all time. Tom knows his mma.
Congratulations champ
Jonea vs Aspinall has to be next
The REAL champion
Let him fight Jones, then Stipe, in time for Ngannou fight to materialize, HW goat
If the UFC is hell bent on making Jones/Stipe, might as well do Aspinall/Gane on the same card for #1 contender instead of making Tom sit out for a year.
He did say 1 round knockout. Chuffed tae bits for Tom
Now I want Pizza; ENGLAND WE GOT ANOTHER ONE!
I am surprised people think Jones will walk away once he fights Stepe, I have watched fights and fighters for 50 years and people like Jones don't just walk away, Jones biggest contest will be walking away, the guys who won't let him, even if he retires for a year or two not being associated with being the champ will bring him back IMO
Great performance 🔥🤙🏿
love it mate
⚔️🏴👑
100 per cent ❤ for you and your achievements. ... John Jones you will kick ass
Jones won’t fight him
tom kills jon jones. jon pssy jones literally said he wont fight tom bc he is too young for him
I think the path here is Jon vs Stipe for the big money fight. And then Jon vs Tom
Great to see a Brit doing his thing in the heavyweight division
Tom can take a shot. This result is going to put a damper on the Jon-Stipe fight knowing that he just put out one of the scariest guys in the division.
The fight should be Jon vs Aspinall!! We should make pressure to achieve it!!!
Yes, Stipe is an absolute legend, but he is 42 and he doesnt win a match since 2020...
Tom v jones forget that other fight the curve ball has just been chucked
Aspinall vs Jones next if not Aspinall vs Gane but that doesn’t even make sense since its weird to defend the interim belt
GOAT? We shall see.
Jon Jones will never fight Tom Aspinall.
hope joanna and mckenzie let him get the 3 sum
There's more UK UFC champions to come. Mokaev is next.
BETTER GET THAT BACK FIXED IF YOU WANT JON JONES. MUCH LOVE. CONGRATS.
That pizza looks wank
Besides beating his record ....no short cuts
Very inspiring tom well done my guy jon jones isnt taking them leg kicks 😂
I am i the only one sad for sergei the dude deserved to fight jon jones a long time ago i am happy for tommy tho
Ibr i need tom vs jones
Tom should fight Tyson Fury for the big money.
he's the ONLY threat the Jon, ciryl was meant to be and we saw there, but jones is jones and Tom has to just go all in straight away
Manchester, the dance capital of England 🏆👊😉🤯
Ok win but cmon man no disrespect but he beat a guy nobody knows for the interim. The UK should be behind Edwards who knocked out a HOF and defended it at home in a fight nobody thought he’d win. Just my opinion, don’t nail me to the cross
It's what a coward does that makes him a hero(Mike Tyson)
Jones will dismantle Stipe. Hopefully then we see Aspinall vs Jones which I think will be the greatest fight of all time. I think Aspinall is the biggest box office star since Usain Bolt in the world of sport.
Jon Jones will never fight again.
@@peternelson7048 Hope he does though. I personally think the Stipe fight, if it does happen, is a waste of time, and he should just come in for Aspinall. Shame for the sport if he doesn’t as he is the greatest of all time and I feel if he beat Aspinall it would cement his legacy.
@@komorebe2542 I agree. I really don't get why anyone wants to see JJ fight Stipe. I also have no idea why anyone would consider Stipe to be the greatest heavyweight of all time. I think it's just one of those things that has been said enough times that people have started to believe it.
Anyone from the older generation should not fight Tom😂 he’s too quick 💨
Let’s be real. Nobody is dying to see Jon vs. Stipe.
Hey Champ!!! Tom Champ. Belt gets High Payments!!!
Bones is gonna dominate 42year old Stipe. I’d much rather see Tom vs Jon
What is she standing on 😂
Jon is old grey hair 15 years undefeated but yeah the biasedness is killer uncle Tom uncle chael uncle Dana give it up jon won fair and square stipe old too makes sense they leave on this last one and let you new boys make your own careers of the work of your own back ....Facts you need Brothers like jon to give yall a boost 😂
I had him losing, not because I wanted him to but because 2 weeks, no camp, and against that scary ass Russian?! Yeah, time for Jon to fight Tom, there is no other fight anyone cares about and then run it back whatever the result
Fastest heavyweight I’ve ever seen. He might actually have a chance against Jon Jones. A very slim one😂
He definitely has a chance against Jon Jones and I’m a big Jones fan. Let’s not pretend that Jon hasn’t been in some difficult fights in the past😏 If Tom lands a clean shot on Jones then it’s game over but obviously Jon is so good and he’ll most likely come up with a game plan on how to beat Tom.
a slim one? lol. He's 7 years younger, way faster, and jones just had a devastating injury and barely fights.
Stipe fight is off. Interim belt means you are next in line otherwise what was the point?
Tom aspinall vs ciryl Gane
Tom needs a liitle mote experience / belief and octagon time to beat jon jones . Congrats!!
Tom HONEYBADGER Aspinall
Noo Icy Hot??!!!
It Helped Shaq...
Damn Skippy
