Couldn't be a more genuine, humble man (Aspinal). The more I see him the more impresse. Skill and character. undeniable. Great interview big Ariel.
seeing how John Kavanagh speaks about Dillon Danis puts a smile on my face
Man John Kavanagh is such a great listen. So assured, can tell he's in a good place
yes for sure, i guess you would have to be when you are coaching young men.
Im a big fan of Loopy... I think shes gonna be a big star soon... 🤘
Pura pinchi raza. Loopy & diego. Also rivas, keep out on the look out for him, he’s coming i hot. From Canada, Ecuador, & Brazil… but they train in Mexico 🇲🇽 ✊🏽
U care about wmma? Lmao I didn't think many did
@@wakeup1783115lbs is the only womens division that is actually good
Hell yeah Tom A. Definitely a bad ass man and fighter. Very happy for you.
Tom is my new favorite fighter
Loopy did an amazing job interpreting for Diego, both amazing fighters
Tom the future 🐐 Great guy
Great that you had Diego Lopes on the show, he became one of my fav guys since he showed up in Alexa Grasso her corner and shortly after that suddenly appeared on a card and performed like a lion 🔥
Ciryl already lost twice for a belt. Man has no chance to get another shot, at least not any time soon. Cirly needs to fight Blaydes or Sergei next. And Tommy boy should just get Stipe and the official belt until Jon gets back or retires. We need a Leon and Tommy boy ppv next year in UK. UK fans are insane and would be an incredible event.
I agree but i think its gonna be gane vs aspinal in thr uk next year
Heavyweight isn’t deep. Aspinal most likely isn’t gonna get jones or stipe, already beat pavlovich, jailton laid an egg, blaydes just got decimated by pavlovich, and gane coming off a win. Honestly gane is the only that makes sense.
Ariel saying how cute diegos hair is😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 2:10:07
John is such a dope guy , I’d run threw a wall for him. Even the stuff he said about Dillion Danis caught Ariel by surprise .
Wow i cant tell who Ariel loves more Aspinall or Chael
John is so genuine, such an enjoyable interview!
He seems like a really nice guy but a bit of a Conor yes man. It makes sense since Conor was/is his meal ticket but he says some stupid things, like the time he said he thinks Nate Diaz beats Khabib.
Kavanagh's idea to bring his own fighters to coach to understand how to coach them is smart af.
It's a shame how fast the co-main event ended, but the fashion in which Tom finished that fight was nothing but amazing.
There's only one Tommy Aspinall🏴💪
Ariel smiling at his own reflection 109 times 🪞👃🏻👸🏻
Marc Goddard did the right thing. If I saw what he was seeing I would have stopped it.
That's not to say Jiri wouldn't have recovered, but you can't get dropped, take 20 elbows to the head, then fall backward, and not have the fight stopped.
John Kavanagh is a real gem of a human! His wisdom, perspective and character are very inspiring and humbling! Thank you for this interview 🙏💯
BTW Sergei also took this fight on 2 weeks notice. Not sure why no one talks about that.
True but he was the confirmed backup fighter all along and at least knew he’d have to be in shape for the event while Tom was coming of vacation and did not expect to be going to MSG
Because Tom took fight on a short Notice as well, Tom was on vacation..
so ……..
@@AshahTafari Backup fighters literally never end up fighting. And the hardest part of being a backup is making weight and this was heavyweight. So Sergei definitely didn't actually believe he would be fighting and didn't have to make weight so in this instance the short notice was exactly the same for both.
God damn, it's so bad when Ariel sings.
Yes, yes it is. Tone deaf lol
Surely he’s aware and just being annoying
Tom isn’t undefeated in the UFC, Ariel. Facts are facts and he lost via tko to Blaydes whether you like it or not.
Ariel is feeding me chito vera like Dana tries to feed me slap fighting sheesh
Loopy Godinez 🔥🔥🫡🫡🏆
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Loopy
I want that Tom/Jones fight so bad man
It's not unusual to...
@@karlricardo4088👍👍🤣
Leave him alone he’s 80 and a Welsh treasure!
@@karlricardo4088👏
Never gonna happen
loop is such a bad ass and so pretty too!
Great, seamless production as always… kudus to all 🫶🏼 Lopes is a gem of a fighter, looking forward to his progress… Lupita interview was very good, her translation skills are outstanding, the best I’ve heard 🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼 Tom is an outstanding individual, always genuine and his destiny to be heavyweight champion will be fulfilled in 24/25… Paddy still in interview on Monday referring to Ariel as a content creator is not only laughable, it is extremely disrespectful, not a good look 👀 Paddy..
tom is a great dude
Wow Loopy is a Queen. What a champ.
Ric's unwavering fanboying of Jon Jones, a guy who disappears for years at a time, goes unnoticed, but Ariel likes Tom Aspinall and it's a huge deal 😂
Always a Joy. It is refreshing that Uncle Chael explained to you his somewhat ascew psy op bungle. A relief. Chin up Ariel, Bravo ol chap.
THE ONLY WAY TOM ASPINALL WONT BE HW CHAMP IS IF HE DOESNT SHOW UP. THIS GUY IS A MONSTER
so is Tom going to be the backup fighter for jones vs stipe? even though we know that if one of them gets injured they will just cancel the whole fight?
that cant happen again. Surely when jones vs stipe is announced again, if one of them pull out the other has to agree to fight Tom.
Tom's recent surgery and now his back not even 30 yet with how hard he goes and him relying on speed is a bit of a red flag regarding his joint care and pre and post workout muscle care for his legacy
you do a great job. whole production 👌
2:38:40 Tom saying his injury before the fight slipped out into the media? Then why was it filmed and posted on social media?
Ariel mispronouncing Lupita's last name.. 🤦♂️
Typical
How do you say it correctly?
This was at MSG and Helwani was absent again?
Is he BANNED at this point?
Oh yeah he’s been black listed since before Covid 🤣
Dana won't let Ariel close to the UFC which sucks but it is what it is
He said about 9mths ago, he could attend a UFC event, like any other fan. But just doesn't want to go.
Yes he is banned
Minute 3 exactly in, paused, came here, I can't do it bros, it's too painful. Good luck to the rest of you.
Don't wait another 8 years to return John, from one Johnny boy to another!
Two weeks ago fury was the best fighter on the planet, a week ago Francis was the baddest man now this week Tom’s the best heavy weight in the world 😂 Ariel’s on that slurppppp soup
GREAT STUFF
Every week passes by Ariel is getting more unhinged
Make it the Heavyweight!
The Old School vs The New School !
even if Jon aint a 'Old' school Heavyweight but the GOAT Tommy is the new generation of Heavyweights
This is why I have some respect for MMA Guru because FACT is if it was DC who was the HW champ, Ariel wouldn’t be referring to Aspinal as the true undisputed champion. He’s only saying this cause he dislikes Jones! 💯
Guru army ♿️✡️
@keegsmusic5746: I said “some” let’s not get carried away with the whole army thing lol
Having never listened to ariel speak for more than 10 seconds before, I never understood why people dislike him so much.
It is crazy how nobody knows who Gracie is. Or Even DoN Frye and he's been on nina drama and that bullriding event. Ahit they don't know who Ken shamrock is or Randy Couture they've all been forgotten because they're never mentioned. Poor Matt Hughes I feel for that man. He was one of my favorite fighters.
So what do you want? A Memorial Day?
We know who they are
Jon vs Stipe is still the fight to make for the undisputed. They both deserve it. Tom can either wait or defend the interim against winner of Gane vs Almeida because of course he will be bumped to undisputed once JJ/Stipe retires immediately after the fight..
I like that fight but i say strip Jon make Tom undisputed champ. Theeen do Jones vs Stipe for the legends belt! They made the BMF belt why not a legends belt or HW goat belt. Id love to see that and that way we can say it’s for a belt
Interesting guy, great coach
in the most respectful way possible how did Tom's dad spawn a 6'6 260lb quick twitch athletic specimen. His dad looks like the most average guy ever physically (nothing wrong w that ofc ) but howwww???
Ms Trunchbull must be his mum
I really like the thumbnail. High af but was just staring at the transitions. Did you guys make Cavenagh the sane size as aspinol for the print or is he thst big in real life?
Tom Aspinall might never be the undisputed heavyweight champion, but do you know something else he will never be? A man who beats his partner into a bloody pulp in front of their crying child.
Ok……………………….
Bring your desk to the live shows, with everyone around it.
jones vs aspinal sounds lame. jones vs stipe is fire and its a retirement fight. aspinal can defend interim vs blaydes
I love diego lopes man
For us hardcore fans who knew and loved and marveled at how Cain fought as a heavyweight.....Aspinal is the next level of that!! I dont see anyone,not even Jones , beating this guy !!
That better help ad hits man. Past 3 years I avoided holidays. Found the future Mrs and life doesn't suck anymore. You're invited to the wedding ariel. Cheers my guy. Your show means a lot you Mongoose
Diego Lopez 💯💯🫡
Bro is in love with Tom
Great Job translating by Loopy, better than most of the in the ring Spanish translators
i really cant do this without dc
? That’s weird
Ariel clearly hasnt seen the roundtables the UFC posted recently...
hot take no one pays to see ian garry win or lose
JIRI GOT PIECED UP IT IZ WHAT IT IZ🫡
Is there anything more annoying than Ariel singing Tommy Aspinall poorly
Happy for tommy though
His rapping
@@369z lol true
Aspinall vs Ngannou would be crazy
When ariel talks about the sport having shitty ppl im sure he isnt including himself.....
At this point the UFC is trolling. They are targeting July 2024 for Conor's return? 😂😂
UFC 300, cash in on the landmark number, and Conors return simultaneously 💰. That’s the plan clearly.
Man put max but not charles on p4p
Hear me out :
Tom Vs. Stipe
Jones Vs. Winner of Tom/Stipe
Ciryl Vs. Almeida = Winner fight for the belt next after all the fight above are done
I rather just see Gane vs Tom right now.. that’s an interesting fight.. might end up bad for Gane on the ground.. but on the feet, he’s much more dynamic than Tom.. he also has the speed to match him.
Crazy how they didn’t even talk about the main event.
Man Tom is a such a friendly, scary ass dude. Definitely want this dude on my side in a bar fight lol.
tommyyyy aspinall tommy aspinall tommmmmyyy asspinnaaallll
Wow…..2:50 I can’t Unsee that
The Disrespect to Jon and Stipe so high. With Dana and Rick all the way!! That fight NEEDS to happen and it should be for the Belt. They deserve it Ariel. Tom can wait. He'll be fine or defend the Interim against Gane. Jon and Stipe is the fight both men deserve with the highest stakes attracted to it. #RespectTheVeteransBetter
They don’t come on his show so Ariel doesn’t fanboy them.
@@erickbolden2584 - Apparently he’s an unbiased journalist unless it’s his favourites 😂
Get Bisping on!!!
Dillon actually acting like himself
Am I wrong for thinking that Sean O'Malley should not be on a top 10 LB 4 LB?
Derick lewis very active
2:34:26 Tom Aspinall
Jones didnt even beat a champ to earn the belt ....he definitely should have vacated the belt but the egos are to big
MMA Guru sends his regards Ariel.
Thats wild. He beat a guy thats never had the title...hes undisputed...obviously.
The UFC could do a European show on at a normal time here and it wouldn’t clash with their north/south American shows….🤷🏻♂️ just sayin’ Dana 🤔
Love that from Tom, you’re the champ now. Stipe can fight you for his chance at jones
Algunes hombres dicen que to eres el Swayze de Patrick Mexicano. Quieres hacer peliculas como el senor Patrick?
Tom you did your people proud 🏴✝️⚔️
No,.Tom is too weak
I NEED TO SEE MYSTERIOUS FRANK 😶🌫️
Ariel, do you ever see you and Dana being able to bury the hatchet. Would you reach out to initiate the talks and actually be open to understanding his perspective despite the fact you feel you did nothing wrong?
Genuinely curious. Thank you, love the show of course!
Dana has no interest in that I’m sure. Ariel would for sure
Ariel is to egotistical and to much of a narcissist to admit that he was wrong and Dana isn't going to forgive him until he mans up and apologizes
Dana is waaay too petty.
100% narcissist, he's very lucky Dana hasn't put some barring clause on his fighters not to talk to him.
@@teegees
Yeah, a billionaire can be as petty as he wants though.
Objectively, put it in perspective...Ariel is a tiny occasional aggravation to Dana, whereas Ariel's life revolves around his beef with the UFC and Dana, to the point he's monetized it and makes his living out of UFC/DW content. The same goes for Josh Thompson on his podcast, they constantly bemoan the UFC, yet make their core income out of UFC and Dana content.
Part of fighting is being physically prepared to fight. Tom wasn't physically prepared to beat Blaydes, so he lost fair and square.
Jon's the champ, he should have an allowed time to return and if he can't by that time then strip him. Jon is the undisputed champ, period. Francis left the organization, he's no longer in the equation. This is exactly where Ariel displays his bias. I do agree Jon should fight Tom next but it ain't gonna happen so we should all move on from that conversation.
Like Whitaker, Aspinall looks and sounds like nice guys who crack people's heads for a living. Somehow, paradoxical.
Tom isn't undefeated lol. Also calm down he's on a 2 fight win streak. Just let jones keep his belt and Tom can defend against Gane then when Jones retire make him the real champion.
Man, Ariel seriously needs to stop singing
Conor wants to come back, KO someone at Welterweight and fight Leon. He realised that window is closing and it’s killing him.
3:00:17 wow
That chant made me skip , love the show but that was an atrocity
Aspinal Vs Ngannou is the only fight to make.
Just needs the Saudis to open their bottomless wallet .
Dana although he dont want to be in business with Ngannou ....... Money talks
Aspinall vs Ngannou
I'd recognize Royce over Cavanaugh anyday of the week
? And………..
@berniemac4422 if you listened to the show. 🤷🤷🤷🤷
