I am not certain that Aspinall is going to win on Saturday. What I am certain of is that he is a decent bloke, and if he does end up winning, I will celebrate like England won the World Cup.
Don't worry he will win by submission and it will most likely be in the first round
@@mistaschaub3280hes gonna get knocked out round 1 unfortunately
I think he wins. Maybe not the prettiest fight but he's got the movement to cause some big problems. And the power to put anyone away.
@@brutaldabscasual.
@@brutaldabsI got Tom winning but it's close both are looking unstoppable
"Y'know what? I'm not here to be some kinda hype job from the UK, I just wanna take my time, he's a great fighter, I'd love to fight him"
Sergei spivac I'd love to fight him
And blagoy ivanov
Oink oink
🐷
“You know what, I changed my mind. I’m not ready for the title yet. Arlovski, he’s a great fighter, I love to fight him again.”
Don’t think I’d be genuinely happier for anyone else winning than I would be for tom. Good luck my brother ❤
Yeah he's a top lad, I think he's a great ambassador for the sport and the country. I'd love to see him win.
I think he's better. The question for me is: Can he manage to circumvent Pavlovich's power, reach and shot selection on short notice?
Too many sleep on Aspinall though. His own power is way too underrated. He literally has the shortest average fight time in UFC history along with Pavlovich.
AND THE NEW UFC INTERIM HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMP!!!
Saw his debut live, been a fan ever since. Going to be going nuts when he gets that belt, LETS GO TOM!!
In the Apex?
@@tristanxjasonI wish dude, on air. His first fight was during the pandemic I believe.
Bro made us all think he was there live 💀
@@jewmail5395 u can still watch it live lol u don't have to be there to watch it live haha
@@tazmannn you’re not wrong but you’re also not completely right
I like how humble aspinal is. The more he fights the more I grow on liking him , I hope he wins even though pavlovich is a hard working dedicated athlete , they both have their hands full .
If Aspinall pulls this off then he will be heavyweight champ for a long time
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I bet you 1000$ he loses to Jon jones if they ever fight
@@ZionGriffin-ng4npAspinall smashes old dusty bones jones
Let’s sign a contract then
Tom's the kinda guy that you don't need to even hear the question. Every response is disciplined, humble and polite. Huge props to Aspinwall Snr for bringing up the kind of son every father, mother, city and country should be proud of 👏🏻👍🏻. We know you're gonna give it that NW grit on Saturday Tom and we can't wait to see you at the end with your hand raised. Proud of you fella, from Salford to Blackpool (and Clitheroe....I know The Count will be with you brother) x
Whoever loses the fight can still become champ one day they are really talented the both of them
Normally I don’t care who wins a fight but I’d love to see Tom become champ on Saturday night, he’s so down to earth and such a good role model for the sport.
Exactly the kind of person you want as the organisations heavyweight champion in my opinion.
Has jones vacated the title?
@@hjk1400 no, this fight will be for the interim title but I presume Jones will retire after/if he fights stipe.
It's not for champ it's interim
@@mabyonedayicanbehappynormally, I'd agree. But if Jones chooses to fight Stipe over legit threats, he's not a proper champ in my eyes.
Tom Aspinall is one of the most humble respectful fighters in the UFC, really hope he wins the interim HW championship.
It’s my birthday on Saturday, what a present it will be when you bring it home Tom. First round double leg into some ground and pound and a sub, lets go!!
Happy Birthday. Keep the party going all year basking in Tom's elation. Hope you partied like Tom Aspinal won his massive victory in MSG. Tom Aspinal is single handily restoring the British Empire using just 4 ounce MMA gloves. One Tom Aspinal as an example of the Bushido spirit of class and dignity is worth more than 100,000 empty suit Marxist misleaders and ghouls in the Parliament. Tommyy Aspinal!!!!! Pacifico Beer cheers for your belated bday. US aficionado of British "fight club."
"Can we switch to someone who doesn't ask shit questions?" 😂
Poor reporter. 😅
tom & oscar are mates, classic british banter 😅
@@tomquayle3930Yeah exactly, I do wonder what americans think of that kind of reply. As although it sounds super rude it is just classic british banter
@@tomquayle3930 yup. Brit here.
@@danielwilson1105Wasn't hard to read that response since Tom is the furthest person to respond like that and be serious when doing it lol makes sense it was his friend.
Scotland is right with you Tom❤.
I think Tom will make this look easy people think he is just a English prospect, but he is the real deal, he is definitely not a paddy.
Tom is a fantastic ambassador for this sport, I will absolutely be cheering him on, it’s going to be one hell of a battle!
Bisping said aspinall is gonna make it look easy Saturday. I am eager to see this outcome. Best of luck to both
Hes getting knocked out easily yes lmaooo
@@FinnMMAno he won’t
@@FinnMMAPavlovich is so one dimensional though, yes he’s got amazing power but let’s be honest Tom is way more skilled
Smart money is on Tom, if you want to risk it more. Tom TKO in 1. Or round two ground and pound! Knowing Tom is will be both in round one 😂
deep voiced roider cannon fodder
anyone running 4-6 miles a day doesn't weigh 18 stone
If you watch both fighters recent bouts both finish their opponents early, but pavlovich gets hit a lot more. It will be intriguing to see if pov can take the damage from Tom and vice-versa
Toms movement will cause Pav massive problems, he isn't gonna stand and bang like Tai, Lewis etc.
@@StockportTakerhis hand speed and how he throws straight punches could potentially give Pavlovich problems because Pav loops his punches a lot.
nobody's talked about the rather large reach difference. Tom's got amazing movement but Pav has such long arms that i think it's "easy" for him to punish Tom and we all know what happens when Pav hits people. I'm expecting/hoping to see Tom pull a move like he did against Volkov - slip and takedown for a finish
Could be fight of the year. Should be memorable
@@StockportTakerPav's speed and reach and Tom's chin up approach could also cause problems.
I appreciate Tom’s personality. I wish him well in this contest.
you really understand how big these guys are when they walk on and sit down, even the middle weights you see their head mostly and some of the chair, this dude is fucking huge.
Gotta love this guy, I'm a huge Liverpool and Paddy fan but I love this Manchester fighter. Wish him all the best.
1:24 How about that for an answer to your question!!!! Tell em' Tommy!!!! ⚔️🛡️🇬🇧
2:40 ...haha so glad Tom called out this guy's twisting of words.....Tom is sharp
even if aspinall doesn’t win, he will eventually, so young with so much promise, tom is destined
Week knees
@@mattypender2910your mom has weak knees
@@kevindunn2099thats why shes always on them
@@kevindunn2099she just loves praying so much doesn't she!
@@mattypender2910 weak*
Tom Aspinall, he's a great fighter
Well in Ladd!!
I’d love to fight him
the most humble talented heavyweight of all time,Tom will become a long reigning heavyweight champion
Pavlovich much more humble this guy doesn’t even have what to be humble about
Holy fans boys now a days everyone is tough until you get dominated Jones can smoke this rookie
Honestly I would love too see aspinal win I watched his last fight live at the o2 he looked good but on two weeks notice vs a beast like the Russian pavlovic it’s a risky move but I hope he goes out there and win 🙏
I love how Tom always keeps Oscar grounded.
Oscar always seems more excited for Tom than Tom him self all the time in my eyes lol
He's a great fighter id love to fight him
Oh my werd!!
Hed absolutely wreck you in about a minute and a half, and that's if he went easy on ya.
@@mattbarker1411 The ufc is a scam, have you seen how many of their fighters have been knocked out or choked out in bar fights?
@@clinch4402give one example
@@clinch4402 No why don’t you enlighten us?
This guy is like the perfect video game character that just comes out of nowhere to save your butt with some awesome 1 liners
a super proud of Aspinall, that was a tough challenge to overcome
This man is the definition of i'm not here to take part he's here to take over, best of luck to him
??
Wow- this gona be a power banger-bring it home tom...🤝🙇♂️
Sergei has different strong mentality,He truly believes in his power and goes for the kiill from the get go, it can go very bad for Tom unfortunately,he is solid guy as well
I'll be cheering for Tom to win this one. But Sergei is a massive threat! 😲
Sergei gonna knock him out cold
@@synestergates7965name me a Ufc fighter Sergei has knocked out cold ?
@@osamabin-jordan542 sergei has finished every opponents in ufc since his ufc debut loss...I don't get what logic are you trying to imply here...does ko'ing someone out cold gives you more points than refree stopping the fight to stop further damage to opponents?...I mean your logic would work really well in wwe though
@@synestergates7965 logic I'm trying to imply ehh ? I only asked you a question based on what you posted. No doubt Pavlo has power but I can't remember him knocking anyone 'out cold'... likely he'll win by tko imo, but I very much doubt he'll knock anyone out cold.....
@@synestergates7965 + you didn't name anyone in your reply......
If Curtis Blaydes was having success on the feet with Pavlovich, bet the house that Tom will have success too. Timing beats speed and precision beats power and Tom definitely has the timing and precision in this matchup.
Its so easy to be a couch potato arm chair expert. Remind yourself that swoleydpt
@@Pedro-uk2vfits so easy to be a couch potato and sh*t on somebody elses opinion for no reason
Tom also has real underrated power. Volkov was only ever stunned by two men's punches: Derrick Lewis', and Tom's. And he was much heavier against Tom than he was against Lewis.
Tom also has the speed advantage and KO power. Unless Sergei finds his range early I think Tom pulls this one out.
@@Pedro-uk2vfwow this aged well... 😂😂 the guy you were talking down to ended up being exactly right. 😂
The winner of this belt is the future heavyweight champion when Jon Jones retires. Jon is retired after Stipe, it’s a retirement fight for both guys. He doesn’t want to fight any of these young guys and ruin his legacy…
Bro they're only 6 years apart 🤣. You're making it sound like Jones is old
@@edwardnygma5549 Jones has been fighting since he was 23 dummy he has so many damage to his body
When you compare the opponents that Aspinall beat vs the opponents that Pavlovich beat and the way he beat them, in some ways its not a surprise that Pavlovich is the favourite to win this one coming Saturday but with that being said in terms of the overall ability Aspinall is the more all around fighter and usually most of the times the more all around fighter wins, now about Pavlovich they say he's a all around fighter too because of his sambo and greco roman wrestling style of fight but I have yet to see it which is obviously not his fault because he's finishing opponents quickly with his hands before someone even attempts to grapple him and he hasn't fought against too much elite grapplers either except for Blaydes even though he didn't really try to grapple much vs Pavlovich.
Overall I got Aspinall but in order for him to prevail he has turn into a actual wresler I personally feel or at least give him something to think about when it comes to the wrestling game so that open things upstairs in the standup.
Aspinal is trash it wouldn’t be close
agree
Tom beat the same people aside from blaydes, he would've finished blaydes as well, but he never got his knee fixed, and it collapsed.
2:06 roasting Willis
Im ready for this fight ..
Tom is about to GET KNOCKED out in Madison Square garden
You have that hillbilly intelligence
Come On Tom 🏴
I'm amazed that after all these years, thousands of interviews, DOZENS of different reporters…and not one of them have come up with better questions than BS like, what does it mean….what does it mean to fight X person…what does it mean to fight for the title…what does it mean to fight at Y place. And then…the stuff like, how have you been preparing for a fight past 3 rounds? Uh it was a two-week notice fight, he's not been preparing.
Right ? i havent finished the video yet but even asking about how Volk just did something recently, and asking how his cardio is. noone is asking anything of substance LOL
@@Renzie97 It's a joke… these reporters are all being paid what? They go to every event. And they ask the SAME questions… not only the same questions as every other reporter, but they seriously cannot come up with ANYTHING else after all of these years? They can't make any effort? It's really a shame because week after week they have the opportunity to interact with these athletes and this is what we get. If I were their superiors, I'd be looking for people who are going to seek substance, be insightful. It's such an open, tremendous opportunity being squandered.
And this is why I have tossed around the idea of pursuing something on my own. This is not my area of expertise. However, I know that I would be prepared with meaningful questions.
@@a9s2w5 you should dog these guys are like early 2010 reporter's we need some fresh blood with new ideas
Exactly. I got extremely angry as soon as this video started, hearing the first reporter asking for a detailed breakdown of Tom's strategy against Sergei. Seriously? Asking a man to reveal his game plan? Then he asks him "What does it mean to be fighting in Madison Square Garden?" Is that even a real question? That media person should have his media credentials revoked. Thankfully Tom called him out and said that his questions were shit! Right at the beginning at 2:00.
Asking about his cardio? Seriously? So that's basically asking the fighter to reveal personal secrets about their strategy. The UFC needs to have a talk with these reporters, and explain to them which questions are off limits. 1.) No questions about game plan or strategy. 2.) No questions about cardio and injuries. 3.) No questions that start with "What does it mean to be...." @@Renzie97
What a likeable guy..! Pure gent
Lol such a cringe comment.
@@Obiodum_and yours is even cringier 🤡
@@Obiodum_ What a likeable guy..! Pure gent
did the microphone feed get swapped with a spanish radio station?
I don't understand why people think Pavlovic is going to beat him easily? Aspinal has way more tools to win and is undefeated. Reminds me of a new and improved Cain Velasquez
I’am sure Toms team have studied his opponent but when he swings his famous overhead right his left hand and head drops down! Definitely open to a head kick or spinning elbow
I can see Aspinall shooting a blast double right out the gate and subbing Sergei in R1
This is the HW Champ we need
Best fighter in the world there!!
Scary dude he has in front of him tho
Wales is right with you tom im a big fan. Theres no heavyweight like you tom go and do it
Definitely not going the distance, either Sergei knocks him out in 1 or he outworks him and tires him to finish by ground and pound/choke in 2.
Proper down to earth lad
Propa lad
This boy is going to dismantle pav it's not even a contest
I don't know man
@@PozzaPizz look at there skill sets compare look at the guys pavs beaten how slow they are
At this point if you should constantly be preparing and looking at the guys above and near you, You spent your whole amateur career and early professional career Learning your skills and sharpening your weapons,, now you study or fail.
Come on Tom 👊
It sounds like Tom is already making peace with the idea of him getting KO’ed
Class bloke hope he walks away with that belt Saturday. Managed to watch two of his fights live and the energy he brings is crazy
Which fights
How are the odds stacked against Tom? Sergei also took the fight short notice and travelled from Russia... Can anyone explain this?
sergei was already training as a backup though
Pavlovich was going to be the fill in for jones v stipe. So he was preparing for some Jones wresting already. Will aspinalls grappling be enough?
Uncle Chael stays undefeated.
I have to say, these female reporters ask really good relevant questions. Good luck Tom!
2 comments above yours someone is saying the opposite lol
Tom seems like a good dude, I found him off that one Eddie hall video. hope he does well in the fight
Look up "Vote Sport" Sergei knockout videos, they are insanely cool. These two fighters are the best in the UFC for sure. This is the real title.
Top Aspinal is the guy who is really hard to hate on
Tom is so cool and you can see he's a good guy I just hope he wins because he's a dark horse and nobody wants to admit it so I'm all in !!
I think this could be a similar fight to nunes /shevchenko 2. I think Tom is more skilled but sergi has the power and size
I’d love this card because with these top four guys I would use them every time in fantasy but now that they’re going against one another. I’m just going to sit back and enjoy. I believe Tom will win by submission but who knows
I actually think sergei will be able to stuff the takedowns. If it goes to the ground it'll be from a punch, but I think Tom will win by tko,
And when this fight was first announced I thought sergei would win but idk I'm starting to think its gonna be tom by tko probably late 2nd or early 3rd round
Why is there music playing in the background?
he’s a northern lad fighting for the HW title! Couldn’t be rooting for Tom more
gave zero away, this is for the number 1 heavyweight. Come on Tom!
Neither of these guys have seen a second round in a while, but Aspinall hasn't faced the same level of competition AT ALL. Sucks to say that he's going to sleep early on.
Toms mustache matches his eyebrows 😂
i signed in just to like this comment 😂. Does he have moustaces above his eyes or an eyebrow above his lip?
If he beat pavlovich he's Tom Sergei Aspinal
let's gooo Tom 👉🏴🙌
IDL why but I am getting a same vibe that I used to get from baneil vs Charles match , where in every embedded video u will never see dariush on the hard training or discussing about training but Charles with opposite..
Hope Tom will not end like dariush coz the way I see sergei is training in every episode it's really scary and 2nd tom is in short notice so... 😢
From my town this guy 1 of the lads
What is this Christmas music I’m hearing in the background
I've been calling for this fight for months. Now it's finally happening, Tom would be a great Champion for the UFC, sadly Sergei is going to knock him into the shadow realm
You are probably right, but let's not underestimate Tom's aspirations and talent. To me it's a 50/50.
@@svavar82 after seeing Tom hurt himself kicking Curtis Blades I lost all hope for his durability
He torn his acl nothing wrong with his durability mate
@@TexasASFgot rekt
True
Muy buena expresión y actitud
Tom gets rocked… when Sergei tries to finish.. he gets caught.. taken down & choked unconscious..
I came here to kick ass and give out quests and I'm all out of quests.
Can somebody explain why Aspinal is fighting for the interim belt? Cause I thought Jon Jones only wants to fight Miocic so if hes recovered he is gonna fight Miocic or is this fight cancelled? Cause that means jones retires after beating miocic and so the interim belt is unnecessary
Come on Tom hope u get the win
Honestly if Tom can use his movement and mix in takedowns I can see him getting knocked unconscious in 1
Oh John, John? Someone is coming for ya, Get'm Tom
Aspinall has a way better chance of beating Jones than he does Sergei. He is way safer standing with Jon than he is Sergei and has good jujitsu to where it can be a competitive match. He will be in more immediate danger fighting Sergei who is probably going to catch Tom him as he pulls back with his chin in the air after a combo.
I smell a 60 second sub, it’ll be a arm bar from hell
Excelente 👌
Was he being sarcastic when he said Oscar asks stupid questions? I was surprised he said that, I think Oscar is the best at these.
I really would have love to see Tom against Cyril. That would have been epic!
Am I hearing a Spanish radio station in the background during some of these questions?😂
When toms wins on Saturday England will have both MMA and boxing heavy weight kings
Mindsmash fight
Sounds like Volk when he went to fight Islam. He getting Ko’d stiff
haha I knew casuals like you would get that from this. Will you be back here after the fight?
No audio on half the fookin' questions mate!
This dude is the man in the HW div.
Two monster strikers , but i think Tom takes it because he's a little faster and more well rounded
If I hear scariest as an adjective again lmao 😂
Good luck Tom lad
the mic of the ufc crew causes a strange sound and in the background here at mac life you can hear a song for whatever reason. I congratulate this sound conspiracy
