Throwback Rate Aspinall's Power /10

Yeah people love to devalue wins after the fact, but Tom is so far ahead of the rest of the pack it's like who else would he fight at hw? If he doesn't wanna fight Tom he should drop the belt. Let the man be undisputed champ and stop holding the belt hostage.
100%, there is no room for any outcome. Well if Aspinall had some crazy injury. Besides that it's Jones/Aspinall or Aspinall promoted to champ
 
It's a terrible time for hw I don't disagree at all. OTOH though, Tom has wins over half of the top ten. And they are decisive, dominant wins. From the perspective of being the best contender possible in this era of HW, well I don't really see what else Tom can possibly do.

He's already murdered half the top ten and many aren't impressed, so he's rightfully calling for the champ. You can't really ask him to do any more to prove he deserves it. It's not like crushing a couple more top ten hws is going to impress anyone enough to make the difference.
Sensible take

It may be hard to know how good Tom is historically because HW doesn't appear the strongest right now.

But he's starching everyone in like a minute.

As bad as HW may or may not be right now, he's clearly miles ahead of the rest.

Maybe it's somewhat analogous to when Lennox Lewis was ruling HW boxing. No one really knew how to rate him against the past because they said it was a bad era he was dominating.

Can only beat who is put in front of you though

And every UFC fan should be clamouring to see Jon v Tom, whoever you think wins
 
That is a legit question for every front-runner.

Chin + guts in a real dogfight always = another.

Right now, Tom Aspinall is nothing but a hot prospect in a sea of fat, mediocre, sub-elite competition.

Anyone who tries to call him "great" (or anything close to that) is a newbie or an idiot.

Jon Jones is a fierce, elite competitor ... who may not be a KO artist, but who has "analyzed and solved" every PROBLEM in front of him ... and who is ALWAYS the man finishing strong at the end, asserting his dominance, and either finishing in the end ... or having his opponent on the run in the end.

That's what Champions DO — solve the problem in front of them, and put pressure on that ass to break them. Every time.

Aspinall may be too young, and too big — but I'm not so sure that.

In a battle of guts and heart, I would choose Jon Jones over Tom Aspinall, any and every day.
Tom has not cemented great status yet. And I'm not sure anyone is saying he is a great.

You saying he is only a hot prospect even now is even more retarded though

No it's not, idiot.

HW = Shit Division of Fat-asses (multi-losers, multi-quitters, just a shit-show).

Aspinall has already LOST and QUIT in this shit-division.

Tom's "best wins" are over NON-CHAMPIONS and PREVIOUS QUITTERS.

YOU are the retard who can't see this ... and who fawns over a basic-nothing when it comes to legit, top-tier accomplishments.

At this point, Tom Aspinall has NOT ONE legit, top-tier accomplishment. Not one.
 
he's got enough power to KO guys, that's all that matters. to go along with the athleticism and the well-rounded game. it's frustrating watching the time being killed with the injuries and the jones crap and all the rest. he should have been well into his title run by now.

Also, your second point is terrible

"Go back to"?

It's the bs narrative being used to discredit Tom and excuse Jon from not doing what any legit champ should

This worst era shit is all over the forum constantly now
To be fair it's not Aspinall's fault. He beat who is there and he fought the best he could. But the fact the division is so small, he can't even build much. Ngannou was lucky to catch some names when he could.

What a fucking retarded take

Don't watch the next card with your eyes closed
I mean after beating Volov and Blaydes, you could have essentially the same quality wins. Derrick Lewis already did it.
