@@diluted8 I’ll be honest my tickets were paid for by my friends parents as a birthday gift and we had stupid good seats, right behind all the athletes and plenty of camera time lmao
I genuinely believe he'll be the champion within 3 fights. No matter the champ & JBJ is my all time favorite. Unfortunately for Tom, I think Stipe & Jon retire in MSG.
Even without the fact Jones and Stipe are probably both retiring after their fight there would be two more fights for him to the title, and if they retire he is fighting the winner of Gane vs Spivac for the title since the title would be vacant. So its very possible his very next fight is for the title.
@ganjadan7600 I hope so it's either going to be him or Pavlovich who become champion after Jones. Pavlovich has more power I reckon but Tom has the all round game and clearly has some power himself
@ganjadan7600 yeah he only pulled out due to visa issues I think that's a tough fight for both men but Tom has the edge due to his all round game, Pavlovich is fast himself and has naughty power
@@macdeeb Gane's camp can't wrestle. Why do you think Francis was so eager to wrestle in their fight lol. He changed camps and realised wrestling exists
Im way more excited to see how his stand up looks against Gane than Jones..Tom is the man for sure but imo Jones is the GOAT . Maybe he might be the man to beat him
One of my favourite humans in this sport, he's the guy that the "everyman" wherever you are in the world should fully support. Hes just a great, normal, honest and open dude. People like him deserve all the support in the world from everyone in the world. It would be *INCREDIBLE* to see big Tom getting football/soccer chants for him in America during a fight... that would put a big smile on my face.
Tom is a solid guy and his dad is 100% right! You can be too nice and it can be your downfall. Their is nothing wrong with wanting to achieve your goals, especially when you’ve put your entire life up until that point into it. It doesn’t mean you’re a bad person or you’re going to give off negative energy. Nothing wrong with being a little selfish. Tom you deserve it man you gotta go for it now.
man, hard not to love Tom, literally one of the biggest baddest men walkin the earth, and the guy is is just genuinely wholesome and nice, I really wish the UFC booked him against Pavlovich for a title eliminator right after Jones v Miocic, tho him v Gane can also be a banger
Tom talks about how great he is as much as one of the most unlikable fighters in the sport while being one of the most likable fighters in the sport. A balance between self-deprecation, being well-mannered and seeming like a genuinely good person.
Exactly - because he 100% backs it up and never bashes his opponents. The other clowns talk about how great they are and how bad their opponent is - then they get clowned when they lose. 🤣
Love the new confidence, I can remember a few fights back and he said I'm in no rush. I'll take my time and fight whoever the UFC put in front of me. Now we have a new Tom that knows what he wants...
Tommy was Tyson Fury’s sparring partner for multiple camps. Even if Pavlovich was anywhere near Fury’s level (and he clearly is not), Tommy could submit him with ease.
@JonnyBones. Visa issues. Now that we know what pavlovich can do we haven't heard a peep from him. Aspinall got dropped twice by some can lukasz parobiec, pavlovich will break him in half.
First I’ve really sat down and listened to a Tom interview.. really good guy.. seems really humble and just a normal dude.. respect.. wanna see him win now..
Love Aspinal his demeanor, a true man, polite, honest, strong, family man, appreciative, and warrior I adore humble man, a wonderful addition to this messed up world
Nice guys finish last! Its gonna take a beast to beat up Jon Jones. Cyrl is a test for you & we all seen what JJ did to him so you better be impressive.
I think it has to be Aspinall vs Pavlovich for ether a no.1 contender fight or vacant title fight depending on what Jones decides to do and you can do the winner of Game vs Spivak against the winner of Almeida vs Blades heavyweight division i hope Jones dosen't retire at 265
Jones will not want any of Aspinall. Young, mentally very tough, totally driven. Excellent cardio, bombs in both hand. Very very fast, Excellent grappler ,wrestler and ground floor specialist. Genuine super heavy. Still not in his prime but very good fight IQ. Jones prefer to fight a past his prime Stipe. Who I totally respect. Aspinall is more rounded with better range.
Future Heavyweight Champion?! Lolol Ariel stop. I can’t imagine Jones being in the UFC much longer but after him Pavlovich is for sure the next King of the heavyweights and he ain’t going anywhere anytime soon.
Jon is the GOAT at LHW but its to soon to say he is the GOAT at HW because he hasn't been tested yet by the likes of Tom Aspinall, Sergei, Francis - real HWs. This confident Tom is a force to be reckoned with and I see him beating JJ in devastating fashion.
Its mad because we aint even really seen his ju jitsu game in the ufc yet, i rolled with him, hes legit as they come at ju jitsu. I think people will be very suprised at how efficient his ju jitsu is. Thats if he ever has to use it.
He knows who he’s calling out, he specifically wanted Tybura for his comeback and asked for winner of Gane and spivak. He doesn’t want pavlovich next obviously 😂
Lmfao. He did call Tom=Paul. Watch it back Ariel u did say it. I thought the guys in the back were trolling but u did hahahahahaha I had to roll it back again. Paul hahahaha
@@suhailshaikh8529 but he didn’t… we’ve seen aspinal against one guy who’s that level right under truly elite, it didn’t last long, but he got lit up and did lose lol not almost, he lost
Aspinall is a nice pretty well rounded fighter but he can never beat Jon Jones. Jon has hinted that hes gonna slim back down to around his natural weight 225-230 for stipe. After he discards Stipe, he’s gonna fight and beat sergei then retire
@@IllbedamnedifIainthandsome lol Na good on old Tom boy he did his job heavyweight division is trash thoe not going lie.jones stipe and pav them 3 are good all the rest mud . So until tom fights and beat 1 of them top 3 I won't be impressed
I think that this kid vs Sergei is most likely gonna be for a vacated belt next year. The rest are good but not great besides Almeida who also looks great as of now. Gane already got 3 title shots and was scared to death against Jon, so can't take him seriously anymore...
I predict that Jon Jones will probably win his next fight against Stipe (I see him choking Stipe out like he did with Ciryl) and will probably retire after that rather than fight Tom and risk his only loss. Aspinall in my mind has the best skillset to upset Jones, he's got size, speed, strength and unbelievable fast striking and great submissions, Jones knows this in the the back of his mind but will not give any credit to Tom for his skills. Anyways once he retires Tom will be the champ.
0:07 "some people not me...they can say it, I won't" 🤔 You just said it and shined light on it. That's you looking for credit lol. What you did is kind of like saying "not to make excuses" and then proceeding to rattle off excuses.
@@Alexander-iq5yq I wish it was. Definitely wasn't though. He pulls the same thing later in the video when talking to Tom, and Tom checks him on it. Heard it after commenting or I'd have mentioned it.
Sergei Pavlovich is a problem in that division. No one wants to see that man right now. Jones will retire rather than face him so it’ll be him fighting for the vacated title really soon
nah lol. he is too well rounded. jon can maybe beat him but in seconds....nah. you are drinking the kool aid and probably have never trained a day in your wee life lol

Only just got to that bit.... Laughed a little to hard at it.

Well ofcourse you genuinely believe that he will beat Jon, that's what everyone thinks when a new meal is presented to Jon.
idk stipe might need the money he may stick around for another couple idk, he was out for a while funds might not be at an all time high rn
Bisping is right a win over gane would put him straight to the top
Such a humble, sound guy and let's his skills do the talking. Hope to see him champion next year

It's called insecurity. A lot of fighters have imposter syndrome due to the media attention.
If anyone beats Jon Jones... This man would win hearts and minds. He is also the only heavyweight who could do it with the exception of Miocic

If Tom wants to fight for the title during Jones reign, he needs to finish Gane decisively.
