"Can you fight at 4am?" Is a question from someone that's never been in any UK town centre at 4am.
This made me laugh brings me back to being 17-25 😂😊

Quality!
Can't believe there's people who actually hate on this guy.
Me either he seems like a really down to earth big friendly guy.
@@howey935real talk, brother 💯💯😂😂
Only because he’s an Englishman and they seem to attract the worst of the trolls
People who hate themselves, hate others for any reasons at all
I like him but he does too much complaining about not getting ahead of stipe for the jones fight. He's up next if he gets his get back on blaydes
Glad he says it how it is. Rather than pretending he loves footy for the brownie points.
Badly advised.. theres at least 1 million adult england fans alot are ufc fans..all potential fans who might buy his merch,subscribe to his channel etc know your crowd

Tom Aspinal is the man
Apparently not. Because everyone he hasnt fought is going to knock him out in the first round. Including ambitious light heavyweights. People have to have something to talk about i suppose.

@@bobrossantichrisstTom Aspinall official 👍🏻
That's the real heavyweight champ right there, looking forward to his first title defense against the one guy who beat him in the UFC. That's right Jon, a real champ rematches someone who beat them rather than fleeing the division, waiting 3 years until Stipe is too old and Francis is gone, and cherry picking the one guy in the division with zero grappling in order to get a belt like some people we know... 😂😂😂
a real champ rematches, like Jon did against DC and Gustafson.....Jones vs Stipe was announced while tom was out for a year, and before he was interim champ.... ..just saying......sometimes fights take longer to materialize....
@@rok2791He took roids for those two rematches, one was ruled a no contest as a result, and the other one they made up that ridiculous picogram excuse that nobody with an IQ above room temperature buys, all so they didn't have to lose money on that event.
@@bluejay9235 even at that…. It’s not like he ran away from rematches….. like you are making out. ……he waiting to fight one of the best heavyweights of all time …..why should they cancel a fight between 2 guys that have been at the top for 10-15 years and have nearly 20 belts between them for a relative newcomer to get the shot. If Aspinal is all that he will beat Blaydes and get his shot….. for all we know Blaydes and Stipe will win those fights.
@@rok2791 He ran from the Reyes rematch after getting the brakes beaten off him for 4 rounds.
@@bluejay9235 come on man....its very easy for you to say he ran ....he has been fighting champs and #1 contenders since like 2011...and reyes went on a losing streak.........poor guy was so scarred, that he went to go fight guys that are way bigger....lol
Tom has a great attitude. Very obvious why he is a champ.
number one contender
@@jamesmaguire9518: Tom himself knows that he's not a Champion. That's why he wants to fight Jones . If Tom thought his " interim " belt was legit - he wouldn't even need the Jones fight .
Quite a passive aggressive interview there Ariel.
Haters gonna hate
@@donaldseigel4101 didn’t even hate bro use your brain a little bit.
Deleted all social media in 2017 and my life and mindset has been much better ever since .
thats cool and all, but who asked?
@@ik9363I did
@ik9363 I was agreeing with Tom .. a grown up mentality unfortunately you don't seem to have yet.
Man I hear you. I deleted it for 6 mo or so and re downloaded it for business last week. I feel so gross. It has to go.
RUclips is technically social media
Jones should fight him, Stipe’s heavyweight GOAT status means nothing in 2024, he’s 42…
Yes it does
@@jeffrey-3535 at what point does 'GOAT status' stop having meaning in your opinion then? Applying the same logic should Usyk fight Mike Tyson?
@@jeffrey-3535then we should see Sean O’Malley vs Dominick Cruz and DDP vs Anderson Silva
nobody knows who Aspinal is
Aspinall win means 0. Jones wants legends
Whoever that giant guy was at the yankees game was just another fan of Tom Aspinal that night. Just one of many more... lol
I’d imagine he’s more famous than Tom, that’s what makes it extra funny
As a child I had a friend who developed liver problems and it was because his grandfather taught him to dip his hands in gas to clean them and that regular habit contributed to his poor liver health.
Tom should read this
He’s taking the piss
The travellers definitely do it, but Tom is taking the piss for sure. Ariel ask him if he's being serious and he doesn't answer, brings up something else and then when he asked him where he gets the petrol from, he said from people 😂😂😂
Real champ
no
@@IsenathiDyantyi He is, be honest son
@@loowisk1113 John Jones 🇺🇲🐐
@@IsenathiDyantyi It's Jon btw
Only people that hate Tom are a mix of jones fans and fans that hate all non American champs. Tom is exactly what not only the heavyweight division needs, but the sport in general. A super exciting yet respectful warrior.
What confuses me is how Dana calls gane the best heavyweight other than jon jones, yet gane went through a close 5 round fight with volkov, whereas aspinall just made it look like easy work in 1 round
Ariel being a weasel as always 😂
Whatever Ariel does you all are gonna find some reason to hate on him, period. Haters gonna hate
Tom beats Curtis then fights Stipe while jones is of his nuts on narcotics
Nope. He fights Alex for the money fight
Or in jail after the news today😂
Jones in prison for 12 months
@@slicvmit's the covid fans that are the ones complaining about the Stipe fight, they don't recognise who he is. They watched for 3 years and think they got a clue
IF he beats Curtis
Tom’s the best. Very likable dude!
I’m liking Tom more and more. Good guy 🙌🏼
He doesn't dip his knuckles in petrol...
Did he just ask where you get petrol from? 😂
Why does Ariel get so weird in every interview…he gets butthurt over everything. Always being awkward and saying weird stuff like “are we not friends anymore” , “are you mad at me”.
Always sounding like a clingy girlfriend. So weird
It was a joke
@@eddiel7635 joke or not it's weird and annoying that he does this in almost every interview on this channel. Not an exaggeration lol
He really is such a cringe interviewer. It's a shame.
@14DEADSOUL love it or hate it, it works fir him. He gets all the top UFC fighters in his podcast🤷♂️. Where's the Shame in that?
I mean thats a personal issue of yours, I dont even think about it.
Aspinall is absolutely taking the piss with the soaking of the knuckles
He's really not, watch knuckle, you'll get it.
It actually works to toughen the skin Jack Dempsey used to do it.
He's really NOT.
@@gavinwilson2071doesn't mean he does it himself though does it ffs. He's obviously joking 😂
@@StreetsOfRage2 whatever gets you through day bro
Gutted the ticket prices were so expensive. £300 was too much sadly
Yeah that's pretty cheeky. 70 pounds I would understand, but 300 pounds is pretty cheeky.
It’s crazy they’re asking for 300 considering how much they pay their athletes and how late it’s on. It’s a joke mate
Did Tom not putting that shoe box back straight set anyone else's OCD off? 👀
Come on Ariel. These fighters train harder and actually try to knock each other out cold, of course they don’t like WWE.
Some of them do. DC's a big wrestling fan. Colby covington takes a lot of inspiration from WWE. He even walks out to Kurt Angles Theme song. Same with Izzy, he walked out to undertakers theme.
Chael Sonnen has always been a big fan of wrestling as well
Plenty of fighters like WWE
Tom the first fighter to test positive for unleaded 99ron advanced petrol 😂
Ariel stop it with the goofy wrestling nonsense already. It's cringe
I've worked nights for years, the worst thing you can do is let the time bother you. If you think too much into it you've already lost
I hated them because i could never sleep during the day, by the end of the week i would be absolutely shattered.
I love Tom, He's a god tier ambassador for UK MMA
Model pro. Win or lose, always a fan. I feel he's missed a trick soundbite-wise. On Cyril Gane he should have said "if doing movies is what you're into, good luck to you. Soaking my fists in petrol and fighting other men, that's what Im into." Best part, he's not even joking. Love it.
Tom is a real one man. The sincerity in which he speaks is inspiring
The King of England
Knuckles in petrol wtf you that fast u might create a spark stop that 😂
If u consider Aspinal as the real HW GOAT I won’t argue HOWEVER if DC was in Jones’ position there’s no way Ariel is calling Aspinal the real HW champion! 💯
Tom Aspinall 🙏🏿🏴
Tom is such a gentleman .ps just get yourself a dum phone.lol
Tommy is a big star in 2 more fights..for sure
Most cringe intro opening
Tom must be trolling Ariel witch the knuckles. 😂😂😂
Ariel is such a worm
Tom is a voice of reason and normality.
He seems a man of principle who'd never sell out.
He beats Jones..
Ariel is being so passive aggressive as usual the weasel
Tom Aspinall is the man!! Such an entertaining fighter, my personal favorite Heavyweight, such a humble, respectful classy guy. 😊
As soon as Tom said its just a quick shower to get the smell of petrol off i knew he was bullshitting 😂 The smell can last for days, Especially when you are soaking your hands in them, You can scrub and wash as much as you want but that smell aint coming off with a quick shower 🤣
The people's champ
Tom Aspinall is the only dude I'd click on this worms channel to listen to
Same here mate don't watch any of this usually just cause the man's on it
Ariel can be such a little weasel sometimes.
"Where's your love of country?"
What a question. The man doesn't watch football.
i don't understand why that makes him a weasel. Tommy is a grown man, he can and did simply say he doesn't watch football
Joke

THE REALEST WALKOFF KO R1 MIN 1 HERE BEFORE IT HAPPENED
Aspinwall gives W2S vibes 😂
Tom is so down to earth. Such a great representative of the sport. Should be undisputed. And will be soon no doubt. 👊
Knuckle is a bad ass movie!
My mans hands guna be on fire fight night
Petrol on the knuckles was really popular when I was a kid! That’s the first time I’ve heard anyone mention it in 20years. It was a thing, and probably still is with the he travelling community.
Tyson Fury was talking about how he was doing the same thing during preparation for the second Deontay Wilder fight. I had never heard of it before that
@@Mr-E. I only know about it because as teenager I used work with some travellers and they were always up to something, including soaking their hands in petrol! Most of them didn’t fight any longer either.
Toms first fight in Manchester since his debut, full circle.
What would it take
Yeah, Tom is a class act.
This petrol thing is a one way ticket to losing your hand function in later years, love this guy to pieces but the petrol thing only leads to one thing and that's hands that arent able to open and close
Ariel was extremely off putting in this interview. Passive aggressive forsure
Damnit. Meow, I have to pause this to watch Knuckles. Thanks Tom... I'll be back.
Hats off to Tom defending his Heavyweight Title before interim champ Jones ✊
He looks like a young John fury 😅😅😅..
Imagine if Tom just got completely starched by Blaydes first round
You've gotta love the traveller piss take who actually do silly stuff like soak their hands in petrol 😂
Did Ariel really ask WHERE he gets the petrol/gas? Has he never heard of a freaking gas station or ..... What kind of question is that
Ariel was trying so hard to pump him up in the beginning and getting nothing back really funny, that’s how also Tom reacts when his wife is talking to him lol
Jon is terrified of this guy
Please stop it. None of these guys are scared if each other. They always look at fights from a business perspective. Jon looks at the fight that can get him the biggest pay day. Tom Aspinall is a beast but outside of the UK he doesn't sell many PPVs. Even Paddy Pimblett sells more than Tom. Jon vs Stipe is guaranteed millions of PPVs hence why it's a huge fight.
@@JohnDoe-iq9bznobody cares about Jones vs Stipe. Those guys don’t sell.
@@JoshuaSmith-no9mnJon’s mainstream star hopes died in 2015 after the hit & run
@@wisdomincoming12 then they died again when he lost to Dominick Reyes
@@JoshuaSmith-no9mn Even if he ko’d Reyes he still wasn’t going to be a mainstream star. To controversial
5:27 we understand lol
11:00 Tom it was funny .... British people laughed with you mate.
dunno if toms taking piss with the petrol thing.. although i have watched knuckle and thats what big joe joyce said he did for bareknuckle fights... But also me knowing anything we put on our skin is ingested into our body, i cant see petrol doing any good on our internal organs even if it does toughen the knuckle skin.. it certainly does not harden the knuckle bones..
Love Tom. World class fighter but a world class role model too.
The Real Heavyweight Champion, Tommy Aspinall!!
Talk about the time difference as if Aspinall didn't just fight on 17 days notice in New York at 5am UK time for the heavyweight strap and KO the scariest, most in form on fire guy in the division.
I remember Tyson fury saying he’s soaking his knuckles in petrol before the wilder 2 fight
Looking forward to UFC 304. It's a great card. It's just a shame it's on at 3am in the morning in the UK 😵💫😴
Tom is a G.
Petrol??? Really ..... what difference would that make? My knuckles have never split?
I hope Aspinall won't get any injuries from that petrol soaking. I know he is trying to improve, but that is just too risky. I think the modern tight gloves should have taken into consideration, they could peel off the hardened skin from his knuckles and it's basically over from there. If I were a pro fighter, I would use lotion regularly to not get any skin damage.
Love this dude
When Tom has the next win, Take him serious.
4am is when the most fights happen..... ARIEL.. *smack*
Don't you mean let's see who the guy is in the next 2 minutes and 10 seconds Tom
It's ironic how "Knuckle" was not primarily supposed to be centered around Big Joe Joyce. But he is the one that people kept talking about once they ended up watching the movie.
I still can't get over The match is taking place at 3/4:00 a.m. UK time.
I'm curious, does that mean the arena where they're fighting is still going to be open to the public? You going to have a thousands of people roll in at 2:00 3:00 in the morning?
Make sure the knee is okay lmao.
0:07 'Randal Keith Cultaholic Compilation'

Why soak your knuckles in diesel if your hands are wearing ufc gloves 😂?
