Tom Aspinall disagrees with fans doubting Ciryl Gane’s ability - praises Ciryl Gane

Well yeah, of course Gane's a really good striker, his grapling is just a massive hole that Jones took advantage of, and even Ngannou was able to get a come from behind win by taking him down and laying on him. England isn't exactly a wrestling hotbed, so we'll have to see if Tom can get him down easily too. If not, the striking will probably be very competitive and Gane might even have a small advantage.
Why are we talking about the perceived wrestling ability of an entire country historically when we have objective and video evidence of Tom taking guys down

Seems like a perverse and dishonest way to talk about the fighters
 
Tom is setting up, so when he loses he can say he lost to one of the best.
 
“He’s been an interim champion himself. He’s obviously had two title shots for the undisputed title, as well, so I think the guy is really good. I’ve took him extremely, extremely seriously. The fact that people expect it to be an easy fight, I don’t read into that at all. I’m prepared for a really hard fight.”
