Rewatch Rate Aspinall's Power /10

[Superzorro]

Someone doesn't need to be put to sleep to be KO'd in fairness. Pavlovich was pretty much done after the first hit.

Yeah, but we're rating power here, so that would be taken into account. A punch from someone with more power is going to put you to sleep, not make you dizzy and confused.

KO is a really broad term. There's what he did to Sergei, then there's what Ngannou did to Overeem and Stipe.

I don't know how long Stipe/Reem were out for but Pavlovich was out for a while. You're only arguing the cosmetics of the KO's. Like, what Ngannou did to those guys looked scarier sure.

Ngannou probably has more raw power than Aspinall. But once you combine Aspinall's speed and accuracy, he's still more efficient and deadly IMO. And as evident by him ending almost everyone well within the first round.

He was literally laying on the canvas for atleast a solid minute before regaining his faculties.

Just rewatched it. Yes it was a knocked the fuck out moment for sure. Beautiful KO.

 

[Superzorro]

I guarantee you that Sergei didn't even remember his own name until about half hour after the KO

He got put out dude.

You can say "put out," you can say "knocked out," but what you can't dispute is the fact that there are worse stoppages where the person's entire body seizes up and their eyes are closed, and they're lying there for minutes before the doctors can wake them up.

Right, I'm not disputing that. We're simply comparing power here, just sticking to the topic. Aspinall doesn't have to be the greatest at everything to be good.

Lol you're trying to argue that Sergei wasn't KO'd?

KO is a really broad term. There's what he did to Sergei, then there's what Ngannou did to Overeem and Stipe. Some KOs just make you see stars, then others completely shut you off and they have to wake you up.

GIF 2 in your original post. Yes, previous shots hurt Pavlovich, but that last shot snapped the neck hard and put the lights right out for a moment all on its own.

Has he ever one shot KOed someone? I haven't seen all of his fights, and I don't remember some of those I have seen.

Maybe when he was coming up through the local leagues.

He has like 13 wins, it's not a great sample pool. Clearly Tom has elite power though, his speed and mobility are even more impressive but Tom is crazy powerful and a lot of his strikes are short and successive unlike say, N'Gannou who loads up and wings huge sloppy shots.

I'd be more concerned with Tom's defense, it's not the best standing and hasn't seemed to improve much.

He hits harder than Fred Ettish for sure.

 

[MigitAs]

His power is 8/10 but his placement of heavy shots is like 9/10, he has enough power combined with his great accuracy, he’s not just winging haymakers out there.

 

[davidj5491]

Tom is knocking people out while moving and staying light on his feet. Imagine if he sat down on his punches.... Yes, he hits very hard.

 

[Bret 'The Hitman' Hart]

Enough to KO a PED abuser stiff

Hard to say, old man Arlovski took his best shots for more than a round until he got caught in a sub also Volkov took a few of his best shots before getting subbed as well, and we've seen Volkov slept before so it's not like he has some iron chin

It's his speed that sets him apart, but that speed is irrelevant vs someone who is used to fighting much faster/more athletic LHWs his whole career

 

[650lb Sumo]

After thinking about it I give him a 6.5/10. More than your average heavyweight, but not elite.

It's weird because I remember him hitting arlovski with a huge combo and failing to get him out of there but he does hit very hard when he places his shot correctly like he did on Pavlovich where he clipped him right on the temple. It's not ngannou/rumble/Lewis/Carwin level power where they can just glance you with their knuckle and knock you out, it's more like stipe or ankalaev where they have KO power if they land a well placed shot

the Arlovski fight was early in his career. he developed his striking a lot since then. i was very critical of his striking defense in that fight because Arlovski was touching him with the right a lot in that fight. it's just he's a big young healthy man so he was able to just eat them, but it was a worrying sign. he completely revamped his striking defense and added a lot of head movement and footwork and it really paid off since then. the Tom that fought Arlovski would've been eating bombs over and over from Pavlovich, but he slipped a good amount of punches in the Pavlovich fight and obviously Pavlovich has a much better grasp on timing and has huge power, size, and speed compared to old Arlovski.

 

[NoSmilez]

It's HW. Everyone more or less hits hard. It is enough to knock someone out. It's not going to sleep people like Francis or Derrick Lewis but those guys throw with everything they have.

Lol

it's not irrelevant when the opponent is a combination of being fast AND bigger and stronger than anyone Jon has faced at LHW. if Stipe can touch Jon, Aspinall's speed is definitely problematic.
