Aspinall says he would have knocked out alex perera after watching ank vs alex, probably right

pereira wouldn't make it past the 2 minute mark.

After all of his long talk, losing to Jones will push him to a Brendan Schaub commentator

Aspinall needs to remember Alexander Volkov smoked Pavlovich too. Clean out your division. At this point he's basically Chandler holding out for McNuggret, but while just at the start of his career

He beat the majority of the top ten already,
by finish, in about 1-2 min each.

It's clean. It's been clean.

Aspinall can knock most people out. He would knock out Jones too.

 

[rorschach51]

The way he took that shot from Ank this is hard to argue.

 

[treelo]

Aspinall would absolutely batter Alex, the guy didnt know what to do on the backfoot, imagine someone the size if Tom flying at you and you are scared

 

[Orochimaru 大蛇丸]

And watch 90% of the MMA community agree with him

As I have said many times, this fight will completely change people’s perception of Pereira and his all time most overrated legacy

Which shows how much it was all based on bullshit hype, one loss shouldn’t change your legacy as much as this will, if GSP lost to Hendricks or Jones lost to Reyes they would still be talked about in a similar way… you will NEVER hear anyone serious bring up Pereira in all time great discussions again

 

[HHJ]

You can see the admiration he had for ank's mixing of grappling and striking

Why is ur boy being a duck then

 

[BabyBlue_Bomber]

Ankalaev and Pereira both, in all likelihood, put Aspinall away…

Along with most of the heavyweight division.

 

[Marko Polo]

“Guy from bigger weight class would KO smaller guy” Come on Tom…

aspinall was the only mma analyst or figure who said this fight was 50/50 and thought ank could win other than Jamahal hill(who might have been doing it out of salt) clearly a smart guy

Nah, he most def will because of the multiple titles. thats Dana whites and MMAs new way of 'making stars' is setting them up to possibly win multiple titles.

Jamahal Hill called it very well too. He said people are sleeping on Ank’s striking and that his counter punching might be the difference, and he picked Ank.

Why would he need to remember that? He smoked Volkov too

yeah Jamahal is having a victory parade on twitter right now lol

Maybe Hill can analyze Poatan well but those skills sure didn't help him in the cage.

 

[mkt]

Given the size/strength difference, Aspinall probably could've taken down Alex or smothered him against the cage worse than Ank did, too. Aspinall isn't a great MMA wrestler, but size matters. Ngannou has shown you can have grappling success with mediocre wrestling skills + a lot of mass and strength...if you're fighting someone else who isn't a strong wrestler.

Poatan has a puncher's chance against anyone, including HWs, but this wouldn't be a good match-up for him at all.
