Tom actually quit. Jones was right.

[fendertach]

Seans eye after taking a nasty eyepoke and going on to finish Abus in the second round:

No ridiculous claims of blindness after the fight, no lengthy doctor's notes claiming a bunch of bullshit.

Tom's eyes an hour after quitting in the Gane fight:

Blind, can't train, doesn't know when he'll be able to fight again, needs surgery, follow up appointments etc

Tom quit and doesn't have the heart required to be a UFC champion. Truth hurts

 

[7 others]

"At least my dad didn't fuck me" imagine if Tom borrowed that line from O Malley

 

[oski]

 

[Oz.Pride]

They should fight.
I know who's my money is on.

Agreed. Sean will make thomas tap to jabs

 

[Kung Fu Kowboy]

No sh*t... Dana , the ring doctor and the entire medical staff already said this...

 

[Captain Herb]

Gane tried to take the easy way by intentionally fouling

Kinda true...but its not Gane who is lying and buying more time to have better preparation. AKA mr "waiting for surgery, but nothing is scheduled, so keep waiting with me..." - This is ultra bullshit and its hilarious that people still buying it. Like just look at his youtube videos, like seriously? Last one with glasses on was top notch...

Anyways he checkmated himself out. UFC will make Poatan vs Gane, just wait...

Wow, the damage on Sean’s eye right there is crazy .

I believe him but if he can't fight in a reasonable amount of time they need an interim. I'd vote Gane Jones rematch actually

 

[KO Shotz]

I hope Fluffy can put him away & make him irrelevant. You would think after Dricus beat his ass that he would've become irrelevant but the dude is like Bisping & Sonnen. He's never gonna shut up & will always find a way to weasel in his thoughts on stuff to where ppl talk about what he said.

 

[PaulieVegas27]

Wow, Sean Strickland saying something stupid. Let me die of not being surprised.

Well trusting is one thing. Can u explain to me why his sparring partners and "gym buddies" - Buday, Phil De Fries or that Serbian HW dont share any training content? Buday especially since he have title fight in 9 days. There is no single reasonable explanation than that Tom is training with them...

 

[markg171]

It's been 2 months since the eyepoke and Tom's now pretending he needs surgery 2 months later instead of immediately afterwards for his non-existent injury that the tests all say is physically fine. What exactly is being operated on Tom?

While throwing in the new allegation that he has an infected eye that was never known about for the last 2 months. And somehow came from Gane's "disgusting fingernails" when fighters fingers are literally cleaned and inspected before they're even allowed into the octagon.

If either of those things are true and why he "can't fight" (but can watch PPVs perfectly fine) then they sure as fuck didn't come from the fight itself and have happened afterwards from Tom's own life and actions.

Tom's a big baby and everybody's tired of it. We all know you're just trying to run out the clock on rematching Gane.

 

[VAfan]

absolutely amazed there are pro fighters actually saying this. then again if you'd expect it of anyone, it would be strickland.

 

[ALLVALLEYCHAMP]

Strickland is right; Aspinall quit.

You think he's in there training his teammates in secret? If they wanted to release footage, they could just cut him out of the clip. It wouldn't be that hard.

 

[TriangleMonkey]

Sean would happily glove-up and face Tom LoL

 

[flektarn]

think he'd feel different if it was a fight he lost. He got poked by Imavov in a fight Strick took on short notice and beat a month after his Cannonier fight. If he lost I don't think we would've heard the end about imavov being a cheating POS (which he honestly is in a lot of his fights).

 

[HNIC215]

He just likes talking shit a lot.

I’ve known people like that throughout my life.

Someone always ends up humbling them.

You mean the pro fighters who usually try and continue fighting to the point of lying to the refs that they can still see?

You know, the whole reason why refs and doctors DON'T take the fighters at their word and instead perform various eye tests to actually determine if they can see and aren't simply lying?

Yeah, real shocking that many are instead against quitting.
