Simon Jordan needs to educate himself on all combat sports. He said UFC fighters lack skill and bivol was a mediocre champion hahaha
Alex Belotti
Don't think that is true
He said he thought the Ufc was barbaric and almost gladiator-like fans etc but also said that he didn't know enough to have a educated opinion on it, and about bivol, he said his last performance wasn't the best and that Canelo would win but so did most people but unfortunately you are correct he did say he was a mediocre champion🤔👍🏻
UFC fighters do lack skill in certain departments, Their striking is average at best, of course they can hit hard & KO people but of you put then in a standup fight in OneFc they would be exposed
If David Haye's boxing prediction isn't available, go for the next best, which is Simon Jordan's.
It's easy to think that based of the fact that Bivol didn't look great v Spider Richards.
He also guaranteed that Khan would be beat Brook as he’s a much better fighter 😂
Level headed and extremely talented. He's never looked in danger in the ufc once yet. Tom Aspinall is a future super star
If he beats Blaydes he'll win the belt in time.
@@theronin365 Would be smart to go for it aswell since the title definitely going to be vacated this year, ngannou going to leave ufc to fight fury and get a proper check for once so that leaves his title up for grabs I think gane will be the next champ but that doesn't mean someone else can't snatch it before him, aspinall in a good position at the right time just has to make it work now
@@JM-bx2vg Jon Jones and Miocic are still around too....Tuivasa as well interesting times.
@@theronin365 Jones not coming back been saying he will fight at heavyweight for like 7 years, his trolling has gone too far lool. Stipe damn near 40 probably going to start looking his age soon it always happens.
Tuivasa next up too so I will give you that one. I think gane will be the next champ though, stipe jones fight may happen but jones won't come back until ngannou is gone lool so maybe he comes back early next year but I doubt he coming back
@@JM-bx2vg Stipe is nearly 40 but as you know in HW that's not too old in a weight division where almost anyone can win with one punch.
Especially if Ngannou is not around too.
Tom is so well spoken, he’s a phenomenal ambassador for the UFC and fighters in general. I could see him becoming a ref or a coach in years to come but he’s got a legacy to fulfil first and I’ll be watching every step of the way
A ref? Lol
@@archiehickox6518 most refs if not all are ex fighters…?
@@fred3831 behave yourself you spanner. There's Frank trigg and that's it. No fighter in the days of MMA fighters making more than £20 a fight have gone on to be refs.
@@archiehickox6518 just ignoring Herb Dean and Mark Goddard then? Just admit it kid you don’t have a clue what you’re talking about. Embarrassing yourself
@@fred3831 yeah they fought when fighters got paid £20 to fight. There's not a fighter retired in last 10 years gone on to ref you plank.
UFC London was arguably the most insane mma event in a long while. That atmosphere got me on a lot of British hype trains. Dunno if the next one can top it's predecessor... tha bar is that high.
Alexander Arnold was the one who impressed me the most.By the way do you know if Till is fighting on this card m8.
For sure, UFC London was more exiting than any other UFC event up to this point this year.
UFC London in March was amazing will be back again in July hoping for a repeat 🙏
@@iandixon7641 Till is fighting Jack Hermansson mate
@@yourtailorisapunk That’s a good fight for Till.It’s definitely winnable.
Tom speaks very well. He speaks confidently without coming across arrogant. I'm a massive fan and enjoy seeing this guy fight. He's got great hand speed and he's good on the ground. Definitely got the ability to be a champ!
I like Woodsy but asking the question 'what time was your fight on' in the last Ufc london event, reveals that laura and talksport don't know who aspinall is and that he headlined the most successful fight night card in ufc history. I understand woodsy and talksport not big mma fans but do some fukin homework lol
I liked when they started to compare losing in football to losing a fight. Certainly made me laugh
She also said the ufc is growing in this country when I think she actually means mma
TBH mate most people tuned in to see Paddy, only the die hards understood why Tom was main event
@@MrJ-ro1yr yeah you know mate, I was at o2, the peeps love paddy, people were buzzing for him but they were definitely just as excited that ufc was in London cos its been away a long time, I think talksport should at least know that. By the way, to all you paddy fans, he's not a good mma fighter but fukin entertaining lol
On radio they have to ask questions like for the people listening who might not be into the sport as she mentioned. Someone in their car hears of a home grown MMA star on the radio talking about a big night in UFC London might put them on to the sport.
About time the MMA guys are getting some appreciation! More of this would be great! Amazing sport! Amazing guys! Top of the food chain athletes, fighters & people! Best sport around 👊🏽🔥👊🏽
Aspinall's already a legend. He dominated Volkov. Would love to see him be British heavyweight champion. Would be incredible. He's so astute and clinical even just in his assessment of where he's at and where he wants to go. Love it.
This fella is the real deal. Great ring smarts, huge, mobile, resilient and ruthless when required. A legitimate 255lb heavyweight who moves like a middleweight. As comfortable on the ground as he is on the feet. He's gonna be a problem at the top end of that division for a good while.
Yeah and he's a brilliant ambassador for the sport and British MMA too! Really hope he can capture that title and hold onto it for a long time it would be brilliant for MMA here in the UK to have another world champ
@@jamiemillman Aspinall is good but Francis is Guna steal his chin
Humble guy! Difference between most boxers is stark. Much more eloquent and down to earth.
There’s a real mix across both sports, certainly not sport specific differences!
@@Daniel_Addy Boxers generally come from deprived areas whereas mma is made up if wrestlers grapplers kickboxers etc that dont generally get into those sports because of poverty
@@Chris-zx3wo couldn’t be further from the truth
@@elijahgonzalez3123 90% of all wrestlers in MMA went to college and many of them were teachers and have degrees, which is very scarce in boxing. You dont know what your talking about
Simon Jordan doesn't need to educate himself about ANY subject. He already knows ALL there is to know about EVERYTHING......
The lad picked khan to beat book and canelo to beat bivol and said bivol is the weakest champion in the division😂he for sure doesnt know everything.
@@naderih1 think he’s being sarcastic
😂
Simon also thinks your not allowed opinion on anything he is against free speech to he thinks booing is bulling and racist
Can’t help but love Tom . Wish him all the best smash it up you legend
he really is a class act. The biggest heavy weight prospect, and backs it up in the cage. You are a gent Tom
You clearly haven’t heard of Cody East then.
Gane will be back and change minds. Wrestling defense/offense is ALL he needs and I think he's smart enough to see the lesson learned.
@@lethalphenomenon6061 Aspinall v Gane would be interesting to watch on the stand up
ufc london had a great fight card and Tom Aspinall had a fantastic performance that night. He has a great chance of challenging for the heavyweight belt and becoming a champion. Simon is entitled to his opinion but the sport has evolved massively in the past decade. Tom spoke very well as did Bisping. 🙂
He's a talented fighter, that submission in his last fight😍
Tom is an amazing ambassador for the sport of MMA. Not everyone is, and that's no knock on anyone else, but the way he can speak about MMA is educated and articulate. Big up from South Africa!
More air time for the UFC please. It winds me up how much time you spend on boxing. Every UFC event has competitive fights. Most of the time in boxing you know who is going to win.
First time seeing this show and this was awesome. Laura Wood bounced so many good questions off of Tom at a good pace and the dude to the left had some fun input, really good listen!
Tom is a class act and whatever happens against blaydes I think he will be heavyweight champ one day
Dropping his kids off at school would always ensure they would never get bullied ;) top man, down to earth warrior great interview.
Tom is a top lad, an inspiration in the sport.
Good interview ❤️👍
This guy looks like he's one of those British soldiers from the WW2 docs lol
tom aspinall is a future heavyweight champ 100%
Great questions Woodsy!
One of the most likeable guys in the sport!
Speaks so well, such a top lad.
Huge aspinall fan, speaks very well, well mannered and intelligent, future champ do doubt 👏
I love Tom, definitely a future heavy weight champion. 2-3 years maximum
“Can you please explain for our listeners” aka can you explain it for us 3 because we have no idea about it…
What a nice bloke enjoying listening to him
I'm a boxing fan n don't watch mma but he seems like a nice decent lad wish him well
He use to live and train with fury, started in boxing
Future Champ! Great interview and great advocate for the sport of MMA..
How can he be champion, he has thought bums and hasn't hurt anybody, he probably hurt his hand. He is a cardio heavyweight, a discount stipe
@@mathewmcg5267 tell me you haven't watched him without telling me you haven't watched him
@@mathewmcg5267 🤡🤡
@@blacksabbath812 he said in the interview he hasn't had a challenge. So where is his explosive heavyweight knockouts. There isn't any. He's gonna get starched by blaydes
If he hasn't had a challenge he shud be knocking then all devestatingly. But he hasn't.
It’s the best form of real life combat we have. In a real fight the best ufc fighter beats a boxer every. Single. Time.
P.S. I love boxing
Not true man just not true.
All fights start on the feet and a ufc fighter has no chance. Boxers are quicker, sharper, hit harder and tougher. A fight between guys of that level is whoever hits first and a boxer is always landing first.
You ever seen what happened to BJ penn and Tito Ortiz in their street fights?
@@GrizzlyAdams101 are you fuckin nuts? How do you think it ends up on the ground?
You think better boxing is the key to defending takedowns but no mma fighter has ever been able to figure this out so they're all just training grappling for no reason?
Obviously boxers will get dumped on their back in seconds. Common sense.
MMA is growing and I genuinely believe will become bigger than boxing. Say what you want about Dana White but there is a lot less dodging fights and cherry picking. Most of the cards are exciting top to bottom and there is more ways to win. In regards to being brutal, admittedly there are more injuries in mma but when it comes to brain injuries boxing's record is much worse. Tom is gonna be a legend and hopefully help make the sport go more mainstream in this country,
Finally a respectful fighter coming the UK. 🙏
Tommy Aspinall is the future of the heavyweights, a class act and the 2nd British UFC champ after Bisping
Depending on whether Leon beats Usman or not.
Tom is 100% accurate, when in a rolm of fighter you dont feel at all worried, they know how to compoae themselves and the confidence mma brings almost guarantees they wont be an arse.
Love Tom aspinal and he’s breath of fresh air post Conor-era, I love Conor coming up with shit talking but Tom’s down to earth approach is refreshing.
Post Connor that was 6 years ago basically
@@CaptainUncle1836 fought twice last year mate and it’s irrelevant, the era is defined by his persona. Many fighters have being trying to copy it. Tom Is refreshing by not doing so
Think Tom takes Curtis out as well !! He's solid AF !!
Curtis ain’t no joke though, but ye less go Tom💪🏻🏴
Tom is a gentleman. All the best for the future champ 🏆 💪 👊🏻
Great to see Jimmy Hill back on the box.
Love Laura Woods, she's so balanced with her views and questions. She's a goddess ❤️
Tom Aspinall is class, such a cool humble man. I can't wait for the UFC to be back in London 💪🏽
All the best to Tom in his pursuit for glory!
Love him when it comes to football can't argue but boxing a mixed martial arts he is wrong on. Aspinall is going to be the first British hw in the ufc which is the best of the best at missed martial arts so we need to give him his respect. He's humble a family man and a proper person you should respect.
Ps yet paddy gets all the attention this man should for real reasons.
@@wesleylamb7782 fact’s
Great fighter and nice bloke, only thing that worries me is the getting injured during a fight, I hope he doesn't over train
Simon Jordan is a living example that you can be a thick as fuck and still worth a few quid. Inspirational stuff
Money nowadays is about popularity, network and nothing to do with general intelligence, we are living in the dumbest generation to exist yet so everything has changed in that regard that's why dumb people like himself can do it big, skip back about 10-15 years ago and a plonker like him stands no chance people where much more intelligent back then, I blame social media has turned everyone into braindead mummies that's why everyone so comfortable with fake things and will take a donut like Jordan seriously
Lmaooo
skip bayless too
Hardly, he knows more than most about the financial aspects of football and has a great vocabulary. He's ignorant about MMA whilst being pretty knowledgeable about Boxing. He says what he thinks too which is commendable in this day and age.
@@j606ywt he had the audacity to tell kell brook khan was gonna beat him when anyone with a tenth of a boxing brains knew khan has been a punchbag for years 😂
his face reminds me of a bo selecta character
What a guy 👍👏
I like this guy very much. Talented athlete and a good head. Future champ I’m sure.
Aspinall is a legit pros0ect for future heavyweight ufc champion. Very skilled for a heavyweight, bit like Ciril Gane in terms of versatility
Who is the guy on the left?
Don't understand how he's not the favorite right now I know it's definitely going to change but still he's so good
What a brilliant speaker
Super interview by the lad on the left and the darling, and poised Lady to be sure. She should give lessons on how to be a Lady to the young women of the world. Great role model. Not your run of the mill product of today's awful state of media and education that is beyond diabolical. But let's not go there for now. ahahahah Big T-Tom Aspinall is on the up uP UP! Again, great interviewers I found very personable and my find of people. God bless everyone who reads this whacked message. Later'r'r'r'r!
So this Simon dude the Uk Stephen A Lmaoo
Cracking lad
No sport makes more sense to be then mma, it has to be the most primal sport in the world, I hate violence in life but love mixed martial arts
"That's what makes the sport so exciting for me, it's so unpredictable. You can prepare everything you want for everything, go into the fight, and get knocked out in 10 seconds...and get submitted in 10 seconds. I like that fear, though." hits a little differently in retrospect.
Boxing: you always know what the next move is…a punch. 😴 it’s mma for me! Tom Aspinall is going to be heavyweight champion!
I’ve been a lifelong boxing fan and picked MMA up around 15 years ago, I’d certainly say that the UFC puts consistently better fights on than boxing does across the board - with PFL/Bellator and One chipping in with some decent stuff sporadically. As far as the point you made, I’d suggest that’s just down to your lack of detailed understanding of boxing… I certainly suffered from that when getting into MMA!
@@Daniel_Addy your right, I do not have a knowledge of boxing. I am so casual mma fan, I only pay attention to the heavyweight division honestly. I just love how they have different types of combat sport disciplines and how they perfected/ use each aspect related to their fight iq…that’s what is cool to me.
@@KellyBurnett138 lol heavyweight is probably the most boring division in the UFC. Treat yourself and watch the other weights
@@Josh-ub1do naw…I like the men on top of the pyramid. They are killers!
Really really big fan of Tom. Future star and HW champ
Huge fan of this dude!
Future UFC heavyweight champion of the world
WaoH! I love this guy
I appreciate them having Tom on as it’s exposure for the sport but some of the questions they asked showed their lack of basic knowledge of mma but hopefully that’s changing.
I agree completely. It's a massive turnaround for Talksport, but still - get with the times! MMA is the fastest growing sport in the world and your lead pundit on it is Simon Jordan ffs. They also spent more time talking to Jake Paul than Tom Aspinall. lol
I remember about 5 years ago (roughly when McGregor was champ-champ and Bisping was Middleweight champ) Goughy and Adrian spent a whole drive time show going on about how disgusting MMA is and how it's so barbaric... yet both presenters admitted they'd never actually watched it!
Unless they're talking about football, none of the presenters have a bloody' clue what they're talking about. They need a dedicated combat sports show on Friday evenings or something so they can actually have some people on who know their stuff.
@@fcboomstick I second that motion.
What an ambassador
Can’t believe she went for Adam Collard! Thought she was levels above.
She could not take her eyes off him 🤣🤣
its an interview keep your tom aspinall fantasy to yourself lad
I love Tom and I love MMA, but Simon has every right not to like the sport. I hate cricket but it doesn't mean I don't respect the players and the skill involved.
It’s not that he doesn’t like the sport that people have an issue with, it’s that he spoke out of turn about something that he hasn’t bothered to educate himself on.
What he thinks he doesnt like isnt the sport of MMA. If he actually knew what was happening and understood the sport he wouldnt have the opinion he has...
Simone is a helmet👌
Given he's being payed to talk about the sport he should've done his research. He's in his right to not like the sport, but he should be professional on what he is doing
🔥🔥
The lady asked great questions for someone inexperienced with MMA
Tom better bring his wrestling shoes to this one
Talksport needs to educate all their pundits...
He’s talented, I just hope he takes his time. I think the top 3/4 in the division will be a little too much for him atm
Hes just beat number 5 in the divisio comfortably. Hes now fighting number 3 and rightly so, he cant just fight people outside the top 5 now unless he gets beat. Personally i think he has all the quality to be champion in the next 12 months. Blaydes is going to see where hes at though, stylistically toughest fight in the division by far. If he gets through this no doubt the next champion
@@chrisgaraven88 I agree that he can’t go backwards now but honestly at heavyweight there’s a massive gap in talent when it comes to the top 3 of the division. Blaydes is good however he isn’t a patch on Ngannou, Stipe and Cyril. Plus he’s yet to fight a massive puncher like a Tai Tuivasa, Derek Lewis or even a Rozenstruik. Personally I believe stipe, Ngannou and tuivasa are his toughest fights stylistically. But I think him and Gane would be a fun fight to watch as they both mix up their strikes well
@@longfoot72 Ngannou and Stipe i agree are probably a step to far at the minute, but Cyril is a good match up too. He said himelf he would like to now fight the top 3 before a title shot so at least hes not trying to force it to soon like we seen with Till.
@@chrisgaraven88 I hear that, Dana is trying to find another bisping so bad he threw Darren Till in there too soon and he’s not been the same since.
Cyril took volkov to decision, aspinall wiped him out without a scratch. I am pretty sure you know nothing about MMA, Aspinall is light years ahead of anyone in that HW division, there is maybe Jon Jones who’ll be able to compete with him but other than that, the rest are easy money.
He’s going to be a champion
Tom is brilliant big fan
Good thing Tom's been watching Chaels videos he knows exactly what to say
What does this mean?
They should have just pranked him and filmed it for youtube
Jordan doesn't need to do anything... the same way stephen a Smith is a bell end, leave them to it who cares what they think
Unless you are complimenting them, everyone gets all riled up if you dare criticise anyone.
Only about 20-30 years ago, this wasn’t a problem. But now with our society, we have an epidemic of the constantly offended.
He wasnt riled up at all though, he just countered simons viewpoint in a calm manner
He just said "he's entitled to his own opinion".. are you okay in the head?
Wait a sec
Sorry for not being more clear. I wasn’t referring to Tom Aspinall. I was talking about the society, this comments section in particular.
Aspinall was entitled to his opinion on Simon.
Gabby abmonglahor looks like a wii character ffs
🤣🤣
He also said his last view of it was over a decade ago. God ppl so quick to try and get in on sj
He’s even worst with boxing my word! He somehow though Craig Richards was gonna get stopped by Buatsi, even though Craig’s never been dropped much less stopped.
Yh I knew that fight goes to points lool bivol couldn't even stop craig richards so I knew buatsi wasn't going to do that, what happens when you give a casual a platform to give their uneducated opinions
Is agbonlahor in the same room as everyone else?
Simon jordan is the sort of guy to educate himself on a topic he has no fuckin clue about
I’ve never watched UFC so certainly can’t comment on the sport but they’re trained martial artists so there is the skill which Simon says they lack.
Its a great sport and only thing Simon did was vocalise his lack of interest into it and shared his visual perception of the sport.
I don’t see any problem in that.
I’ve been following MMA for 15 years or so, boxing almost 30 - I have to say, MMA (specifically the UFC) is putting on consistently more entertaining fights than the whole of boxing in my view… Still love both sports and I love the spirit of competitors across the board! Give the UFC a go pal and try to watch it with someone that understands a bit about the ground game - my brother helped my understanding of that back in the day and it’s that appreciation that has fuelled my interest in the sport!
Simon shouldn't criticise things he doesn't have a clue about
Aspinall vs Blaydes should be a great match up
Fear definitely a factor if Francis Nganneu comes back...
Tommy Boy 👊🏽🔥👊🏽🔥👊🏽
Laura Woods is in love!
Woodsy only dripping here.
He is true thou that guy or man don’t know anything about sport
Doesn’t want to be a hype train from the UK 👍
Tom is one of the best representatives of the sport. He's like a heavyweight GSP
future world champion there.....
Media needs to catch up in this country, bt the only people who know anything about the sport. As always talk sport an embarrassment.
Their reporting of football is a joke too. I never take any of their journalism serious
Simon Jordan … is right it’s just men rolling around 🤷🏼♂️
Obviously you don't watch it so why would you spout nonsense like that
I like Tom, No.6 ranked guy in the HW division already. Never looked troubled. Although,
Honestly don't see him beating the likes of Francis (if he's still there) or Jon Jones.
Honestly I see him schooling both BUT Curtis blaydes has looked insanely good right now that I genuinely think this will be Toms hardest fight for a long time, until either someone else shows up or Gane makes leaps in his progress because he is a freak athlete. Jones hasn't looked good vs two light heavyweights that aren't champion and Francis still makes big mistakes, he got rocked vs Stipe in the 2nd fight when going in for the finish - I think the heavyweight division has found a whole lot of fun new talent that in a year or twos time the top 5 will be completely different to what it is now
@@MADDOGLIAM97 I highly doubt he was rocked. A hard shot stopped him moving forward and nothing else, then he put him out with a perfect left hook
@@McGeezle he was and stipe got KO'd because he rushed back in because he rocked him
@@MADDOGLIAM97 He took a step back so that means he was rocked. Gotcha. It's obvious from what immediately followed that he wasn't but gotcha
@@McGeezle LMAO HUH? Because someone is rocked they can't strike? Open your eyes
This is a 50 50 fight
I think Blaydes should be the favourite here, Blaydes is such a dangerous fight for anyone because of his wrestling and he can pack a punch that throws people off guard. Aspinall is definitely the prospect though and the way he obliterated Volkov has to be respected. I don't think I've ever seen Volkov get beat that easily. At least not that I can think of anyway he seems to give everyone a good fight, battered Lewis before the KO, had some good success against Gane, also gave Blaydes a good fight to a point where Blaydes was criticised for the way he won the fight. Aspinall just walked through him.
I’ve got aspinall I think he’s the future champ , should be close tho blaydes is very dangerous
@@Artesian_mirage Surprised you say that tbh, I think if anything Tom wants to keep this standing as much as he can. The problem with wrestlers though is that the threat of the takedown keeps people off guard and they actually get an advantage with their standup because of it.
So hopefully Tom doesn't get caught, but I think if Tom lets Blaydes get on top of him it's going to be a bad night, Blaydes can spam takedowns all night long. Only Lewis and Ngannou have managed to catch him before he's succeeded in a takedown.
