Lol. You are an exceptionally poor judge of talent.Aspinall fights like a journeyman and it looks like Arlovski was fed to him.
Time to hang them up.

He has the highest takedown defense in all of heavyweight and has only once been submitted before last night. That shit was embarrassing. Arlovski just gave it up.Impressed how fast Aspinall capitalizied on the position, Arlovski was really lazy I expected more from someone so experienced.
Tom Aspinall is for real.
Andre could have fought the choke harder, but he's posting with his left arm and a ufc gorilla is under his chin cutting off the blood to his brain.
I love all the naga champs weighing in like "in my 8 years of BJJ rolling with soccer dads,"
I remember when we had a Bellator guy come train with us. It was eye opening the levels of grappling and just the levels of athleticism. That guy wasn't even that good.
Andre will keep sparring for dollars as long as Dana let's him.
I know it doesn't make any sense from a matchmaking perspective, but fuck I want to see Aspinall vs. Daukaus.
Id like to see Aspinall vs Spivak. Spivak will test his ground game. Also Daukus vs Boser would be good for a legit boxing style scrap.
Boser lost his chance to break into the rankings, while Daukaus just secured a Top 10 slot. Tanner needs somebody just outside the Top 15. If Greg Hardy hasn't rage-quit MMA yet to go do boxing/basketball or whatever, I actually think he makes a lot of sense as an opponent for Boser. They're ranked very close to one another globally on Tapology and both have recently failed to make the cut to get into the rankings.
I also think it has the potential to be an incredibly fan-friendly striking bout while it lasted... or maybe not, as both guys have shown a proclivity to be consummate counter-strikers at times. Either way, I think it makes sense.
Aspinall vs. Spivak isn't bad at all though and Tom seems open to it.
Just a thoery here as I don't have any evidence of it. But at one point post fight it kind of looked like Arlovski was limping a bit when he was leaving the cage. Maybe he fucked up his leg getting surprised by the takedown and trying to react last second so knew he wasn't getting up between buddy having his neck, and now his leg potentially feeling fucked.Geez Arlovski straight up quit, didn’t even fight the rnc. No hooks in or anything.
You seems to be running a promo in this topic.Lol. You are an exceptionally poor judge of talent.
Sorry man but Arlovski straight up quit. All he had to do was reach up and pull the hand off the top of his head and he was out. Simple escape but he wanted to go home.
I know what he is doing.Don't know what Arlovski is doing that cage, better retire instead of losing like this. Arlovski was a great fighter, but can't fight forever.
I think even this version of Aspinall could possibly beat Lewis. He certainly wouldn't dive into an uppercut like Blaydes did.You seems to be running a promo in this topic.
There were other heavyweight bouts in this event, even casuals could make a quick judgement on what's what.
What do you think would happen if Aspinall and with his limp wrist slap punches was fed to black beast?
Imagine calling Arlovski scared. That choke would've squeezed your fuckin head off you idiot. I'd actually pay good money to see you try and last a round with Aspinall.
I mean, he won and deserves respect for the win, but there are obviously levels to this game and this performance was a couple away from the top.I think even this version of Aspinall could possibly beat Lewis. He certainly wouldn't dive into an uppercut like Blaydes did.
And Aspinall is not required to beat top 5 opponents yet. He is a prospect, and the way he handled a dangerous veteran like Arlovski was extremely impressive.
Ciryl Gane and Tom Aspinall are the top two prospects in the division IMO.
