When was he ever making any sense? The most sensible i saw him was when Jan Blachowicz smoked him with a one hit wonder and followed up with few super necessary, jaw breaking shots.
If I remember correctly, Aspinall called out Gane before his last fight, but Gane said it was too risky of a fight and he didn’t want it. Aspinall has handled everyone put in front of him. He deserves the Jones fight.
he was clearly referring to Bo Nickal has kid, they were going back and fourth two years back a couple videos about it on RUclips. Great vid besides that obviously he didn’t mean Craig
@Cj-pb7ur - Ah ok I see what you mean now, my bad. It's just weird how they put the clip together with him talking about Craig not being good anywhere and then jumping to Khalil bragging about how he beat him. That's why I assumed it was all about Craig
I'd have to agree w Luke Rockhold I don't think it was a bad move I know Stipes old but IF I was Stipe I would of called out Tom Aspinal after his fight w Jon Jones KNOWING that Jon Jones is ducking does Tom need that fight NO but Stipe is a good name to have on ur resume
@JulezX.X - Jon has only beat Gane and Stipe at HW. If anything Aspinall has a better overall resume at HW than Jones does. You think Aspinall beating Gane is the xfactor here?
There is no narrative about Tom needed to do more lol. Jones just doesn’t want the fight because he’s at the end of his career and wants 1 last money fight. Jones even said himself Tom deserves it
You can make a youtube channel off of the amount of bad takes from that podcast. Between Luke and Rampage, these guys don't do any research and don't follow the sport hardcore enough to be able to do that. TJ is amazing, but he's not there all the time
People point to andrei arlovski fight like he isnt the most tested and experienced guy in ufc history. That dude is always a hard fight for about anyone. He was fucking good even at 40
Luke is right. Tom needs to make himself more valuable legacy sense. Hw division is EMPTY and that's the only reason this mess is being forced by McGregor era fans.
@LynchOnSports the winner of Gane vs Volkov and maybe settle his 1-1 record with Curtis Blaydes. Jon doesn't owe the ufc anything at this point. Jon doesn't need Tom and Poatan has been asking for Jones since the start of his 5-0 run at lhw.... it's really not that hard to understand. Jon doesn't owe us anything. He'll get slandered regardless when he eventually smokes Tom in 2026...
@BrdOutaMyMnd - If he doesn't owe Aspinall anything then just retire and let the division move on. Nobody would complain about that. Also Aspinall already beat Volkov and would beat Gane as well
@@LynchOnSports what you're saying is valid 98% of the time but you're talking about the other 2% which is Conor McGregor & Jon Jones can do whatever the fook they want! haha love ya James. please don't block me. i was a fan of jones before i was a fan of you. i hope you can understand that. God bless.
@BrdOutaMyMnd - I only block people who are rude and disrespectful, lets be clear about that. I think you're wrong here in that Tom needs to prove more
bs everyone is getting on the Aspiinal train, but Jones would eat him up and spit him out, Jones WOULD NEVER quit for a busted knee, he would hop on one knee and find a way to win, so we already know that Tom is not capable of being the nail so he better hope he just gets Jones out of there quick which I doubt.
@adairjanney7109 - Meanwhile Jones arguably lost to Reyes, Gus (first fight) Santos and if Anthony Smith would have taken the DQ, he would have won the title as well. Should I go on?
@@LynchOnSports Sure but Jones didnt quit did he and he made it through it all, he didnt tap out to an owie, he is a homosassin and knows the male body inside out, he will eat aspinal for lunch
@@LynchOnSports Well even I have my limits but I honestly do not think Jones would quit over a blown out knee, he would find a way. That is what makes a goat well that and peds and knowing the male body like a homosasin
@adairjanney7109 - His knee blew out and he was out for a year. What planet are you living on thinking he "quit" as opposed to being seriously injured??
@israelpadilla2008 "smart" you’re yappin. Luke isn’t a nuclear scientist, he’s a professional fighter. You’re a nobody who gets mad and defensive for a youtuber that relies on fighters cause he can’t make his own content.
@@israelpadilla2008 hey dummy, the james lynch guy is always biased against dagestani dudes, and all the time he's always wrong. Looking at him being a mouthbreather like brendan schaub, he probably was really mad when islam beat charles. He dont have the right to talk shit about luke. The guy is a dumbass
Aspinall got destroyed by Curtis Blaydes, and then barely beat him the second time. They should fight in the rubber match. IF Aspinall wins, then he should then fight Stipe (just like Rockhald said). Then if he beats Stipe he should get a shot at Jon Jones.
@PittToNYC - "Aspinall got destroyed by Curtis Blaydes" not even remotely true, but lets say for argument sake that was the case, he already beat Blaydes in the rematch. Stipe is retired, so Aspinall can't fight him. Hence Luke's take was awful
I know what to expect from Luke. I'm not surprised at all. For the last 8 years, Luke has been a mumbling... Ugh, it's hard to judge sometimes, but when has Luke been known to say anything of substance? He's been getting owned at press conferences and interviews for the last eight years. If you follow the sport, you know he's not witty/sharp when he opens his mouth. Great memories until he opens his mouth. Expect this from Luke. Don't mind him.
I'm extremely intrigued by a Tom Aspinall vs Jailton Almeida matchup. Let Jon Jones retire, he was never the true champ at heavyweight anyways, not the best at 205 either since he lost to Reyes
Sorry but James I respect what you do. But your wrong Luke Rockhold is a former fighter best friends literally best friends with Dc now watching Jon jones do what he done to Cormier twice he’s obviously going to have different level of respect for Jon and he is seeing it from a career perspective that’s all. The other things I don’t entirely agree with
I get what Luke’s saying. Tom shouldn’t fight stipe but Tom has never been 5 rounds he isn’t tested he will lose to jones unless he gets a tough fight on the way up. Knocking people out 1st round isn’t good in the end because he isn’t gaining the experience needed. Have aspinal fight gane if Tom beats gane quicker than what Jon did I’ll be sold. Until then I think Jon would beat Tom easily right now.
@ beat gane quicker than Jon? I’d love to see it. Tom has been winning by koing his opponents id love to see Tom knockout gane I highly doubt he would do that sir!

He’s a moron that’s why James, end of story
Your handle is after a comic book character u nerd rodent
😂
Definitely not an idiot
@@jesusiskingofkings4428 nothing wrong with being a nerd or a rodent for that matter
@Rya_N33 Well, not an idiot cause he knows he will lose to any of the top 10 now. He should just retire instead of dodging fighters.
I can’t believe I’m watching a podcast reviewing a podcast reviewing a sport that I watch.
@omarrashid4822 - I don't have a podcast. People react to videos all the time. You must be new here
It’s like inception, but with even more layers….😮😮😮
@@LynchOnSportswhy do you always have a stick up your ass
Social media detox is the best. This shit brings fatigue...
All those knockouts surely did a number on Luke
When was he ever making any sense? The most sensible i saw him was when Jan Blachowicz smoked him with a one hit wonder and followed up with few super necessary, jaw breaking shots.
wouldn't say that to his face tho. 😂
Shut your disrespectful rat mouth
@@ambersonerikson3122exactly
@@jesusiskingofkings4428>My toddler came out as trans
@@ambersonerikson3122 ofc i would... what is he going to do?
Tom just needs to get another 2 or 3 interim belts and then he’ll be ready.
CTE is a hell of a drug
Glad you are making this content James
Thanks man, doing so when I can
If I remember correctly, Aspinall called out Gane before his last fight, but Gane said it was too risky of a fight and he didn’t want it. Aspinall has handled everyone put in front of him. He deserves the Jones fight.
Even IF Aspinall beat Stipe, Jones would still refuse to fight Aspinall
Jones is fighting Aspinall pretty clear at this point, he just presented a disinterested attitude to hopefully get paid more
All this talk about his resume… he’s LITERALLY the interim champion 😂 his resume is irrelevant. He literally has the other half of the belt
He needs to rematch Andre Arlovsky to prove he has what it takes for Jonny Bones.
he was clearly referring to Bo Nickal has kid, they were going back and fourth two years back a couple videos about it on RUclips. Great vid besides that obviously he didn’t mean Craig

Luke’s never been the sharpest guy…..
If it wasn't for Tito, Luke would be the biggest mouth-breather in MMA.
Rockhold is just that guy he is terrible at trash talking and he makes weird takes, he may be an early CTE victim too.
I'd have to agree w Luke Rockhold I don't think it was a bad move I know Stipes old but IF I was Stipe I would of called out Tom Aspinal after his fight w Jon Jones KNOWING that Jon Jones is ducking does Tom need that fight NO but Stipe is a good name to have on ur resume
I bought a chain off Jaxxon cuz I support rampage. That $hit tarnished in 3 weeks 🥴
I don't know what he said wrong? Besides fighting Stipe? Beat all the guys JJ has beat?
@JulezX.X - Jon has only beat Gane and Stipe at HW. If anything Aspinall has a better overall resume at HW than Jones does. You think Aspinall beating Gane is the xfactor here?
@@LynchOnSports Yeah true, sometimes I forget that JJ beat guys in the light heavyweight and not HW & only has 2 wins at Heavy.
There is no narrative about Tom needed to do more lol. Jones just doesn’t want the fight because he’s at the end of his career and wants 1 last money fight. Jones even said himself Tom deserves it
Aspinall's total fight time in the UFC is shorter than Jones v Stipe fight time.

Luke is right. Tom needs to make himself more valuable legacy sense. Hw division is EMPTY and that's the only reason this mess is being forced by McGregor era fans.
So who should Tom fight then? You act like he's avoiding a bunch of contenders to fight Jones

“UFC Champion Lukes a casual” -random youtuber from his basement
Not all fighters are smart. You don’t have to be a fighter to criticize. Stop this bs that you can have your own opinion.

Damn Yoel and Jan really rattled Luke’s brain
I don't think Tom has defended his interim belt enough times to deserve a title shot.
I WILL NOT STAND FOR PAUL CRAIG SLANDER!!!! Love the sass from you here James!
Thanks for the video, JAMES LYNCH
This was a good video James

Fortunately, Rockhold has no influence. Let him yaping...:)

Tom would hurt Stipe baldy that's a terrible idea from Rockhold
John should just fight ciryl again
If Tom do any thin alse before Jones he will have no one to defend the belt agains.
It's Luke rockhold have u not heard him say stupid things for the past decade?
Common James W 👏
Sorry but James I respect what you do. But your wrong Luke Rockhold is a former fighter best friends literally best friends with Dc now watching Jon jones do what he done to Cormier twice he’s obviously going to have different level of respect for Jon and he is seeing it from a career perspective that’s all. The other things I don’t entirely agree with
@Luke-UFC - Him being friends with DC has nothing to do with his terrible take about Aspinall fighting Stipe
The pods are always worse when luke is on everything turns gay when’s he’s on and he’s salty af
Tom vs Gane. Why is Tom declining to fight him
Gane is fighting Volkov and Aspinall has asked to fight him numerious times, but Gane was filming a movie
I get what Luke’s saying. Tom shouldn’t fight stipe but Tom has never been 5 rounds he isn’t tested he will lose to jones unless he gets a tough fight on the way up. Knocking people out 1st round isn’t good in the end because he isn’t gaining the experience needed. Have aspinal fight gane if Tom beats gane quicker than what Jon did I’ll be sold. Until then I think Jon would beat Tom easily right now.
Who does Tom need to fight though? He's had plenty of 5 round scheduled fights but becausae he's so good, he's finished those opponents early
@ give Tom gane and if Tom can beat gane worse than jones than ok I’ll be sold.
@WheelchairRitchie - He would beat Gane, we don't need to see that fight
@ beat gane quicker than Jon? I’d love to see it. Tom has been winning by koing his opponents id love to see Tom knockout gane I highly doubt he would do that sir!
4th and foremost who the f gave him a platform?
Luke always the one to ruin the podcast
I watch jaxxon regularly, luke had a bad take here, generally he’s cool and funny with decent takes
And everyone dissing him here would cower to his face
@jesusiskingofkings4428 - Nobody is dissing him, but if he's flat out saying things that are wrong, don't you think that should be corrected?
@@LynchOnSports not you james i mean others, and bringing attention to it is fine i just think he had a slipup
He's probably drunk 😂
Gane ducked tom already
Tom Aspinal needs to prove himself. 😂 sounds like a joke
👍👍👍
Aspinall is crying so much, let’s seehim vs Cyril Gane. And see how that fight goes.
Once I heard him burying Helwani on the Rampage Podcast…I knew he had brain damage.
Delusional. Jon is the goat. The least aspinal can do is fight Gane. Let him earn it. Nobody wants to earn anything at all these days and it's gross
Aspinall would beat Gane. That's a silly argument
