In my opinion Tom is by far the best role model for the UFC and young guys watching, no ego, super chilled, the type of guy you would want your kids to be like. Long may his reign continue!

"Where should I look?" Is actually a great question

Favourite UFC fighter

Nile shows one of the main strengths of an elite athlete, often overlooked, which is high coachability.

I've nothing but a massive respect for tom a national treasure he's gonna go far 👍😎🇬🇧

Tom, no need for the music in the background mate, dialogue is fine on its own 👍

I'm guessing this means we'll soon be seeing Tom trying to stick a backflip😜... Looking forward to it already! Great video fellas 💪

Appreciate all the love and support 🤛 BIG news incoming don’t forget to SUBSCRIBE so your first to hear about it 🤝

Tom knows how to explain things, great vid!

Pure Class, Tom. It's Good to see you be real with Nile. And not go full on Strickland and try and destroy him. With Great power comes Great Responsibility!

To a beginner a question like " where do i look" can seem a bit stupid, but it's a pretty solid question. I'm 190cm so most of the times I can look at the hips and still see everything.

I’ve seen so many fighters explain techniques badly, but Tom is a very easy person to understand when he explains things. I think he’ll be a very good coach in the future

This dude is such a treasure. No ego and quite funny.

Tom seems so easy to be around and talk to

If you're looking for a role model, look no further- showing how humble, hard work can bring huge success (and make you the hardest man on the planet!). Fair play to Nile for taking those leg kicks too...

Niles a good sport. Great video.

Pride of the UK. Tom is such an inspirational guy... An absolute monster in the cage, but friendly, humble and chill with it. Total legend 💪

The light sparing was really fun to watch, all smiles and giggles :D It was like a game of tag

Y'all had good vibes! you should do gymnastics with him

Tom Aspinall is the man. He represents us so well 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Best role model in the ufc! Compassion not wanting to hurt him and asking if he’s okay!! Keep it up Tom

Respect tom . fron a fellow Marshall artist that was fantastic . you truly a great ufc champion to see the teacher in you and knowing what youre capable of with a guy youre size never mind a guy half you're weight i just felt like saying you're an inspiration to anyone wanting to learn not only how to fight but to be a gentleman have a great day tom hopefully get to watch you smash jones if he stops ducking. . all the best champ .

Love this...nail is a top lad in every video I've seen him and toms a gentleman always...more of this stuff

I don’t think I’ve seen Nile so nervous. And he’s done some crazy stuff on his channel.

Loving the uk collabs 👍🏽👍🏽

Nile what were you thinking 😂😂😂😂

Massive respect to Nile!

Really enjoyed this. Well done Nile for not flinching and being a good sport. Great stuff.

Tom is the gentlest giant you can train with, the man doesn't forget his size and strength and explains things clearly while encouraging you, man it must be a pleasure having the opportunity to be coached, even for a little bit, by him. Keep up the good job Tom and hope you get that title shot ASAP, we're here to support and cheer you on!

Great teacher! Tom is so relatable! I grow to like him more and more.. What an exemplary role model.

toms so northern i can’t help but smile when he talks. such a sound bloke

Niles was taking this seriiously, listening to Tom, he respects all sports people and their skills, Great video Tom, I came across because of Niles, and I will subscribe. Thanks

From the videos with Eddy and here, Tom seems to be extremely good at teaching and explaining things nice and simple.

Great basic drills for beginners. Tom, you’re a good teacher

Honestly the way Tom breaks stuff down makes it easy even for a rookie like me looking to learn.

Bro bullying a small kid 😂😂

Absoloute pure class act! Also takes a lot of courage to even step in there. Well done both

can see tom being an amazing coach once he retires

One thing I have noticed about Tom is he can learn what level the person is at and adapt his teaching style/method. I use to do this when teaching TKD hence why I recognised it., not the same level or world of course but great to see. He will make a great teacher if he decides to go that path after competing.

Great video, top man Tom Aspinall 👊👊😎

Tom just seems like such a nice caring bloke

Tom is a role model. What a fantastic guy! even with this sparring session he is constantly checking with Nile. Tom knows what he is capable of. It is bad that Stipe or Jon wont take the fight.

What an absolute hulk with such kindness in him.

This is really great stuff, Tom!

I have so much respect for these humble UFC fighters like Tom , Volk.

Tom's so encouraging and accommodating..

We need more fighters like Tom. Great video!

Great video big Tom. Love these sort of clips, just proper normal behaviour.

Fascinating video. Thank you.

Dude took it one like is a Good Student of the Sport!! Love the Knowledge and Sparring Guidelines Aspinal is Teaching 👏💯

Tom makes a great teacher of the art

Those tips for staying relaxed are game changing

So much fun, what a gentle giant teacher

yano what this video was so much fun ahah and nile was quite good for a beginner, its rare a beginner doesnt look silly at times, but he showed he can listen and execute, thats all you want from a beginner! ps Tom Aspinall is the best so proud, were going to have a champ from north west UK!!! lets gooooooooooo!!! im from Bolton

Wee Tommy Aspinall 😜... that was a fun video, keep it up and we will see your subs at 1 million Shortly! Proper wee dancing class

Tom is a real gent, what an experience it must be to "spar" with such a champ, his dad must be so proud

I would have Nile's exact reaction: "I don't want to hurt him, even if my brain knows I can't.." :-)

You got to love Tom's personality.

15:46 Nile’s life flashed before his eyes when Tom said 100%

Nile's pupils are so dilated because of the nervous adrenaline lol

Tom is role model,very good man and best UFC fighter

Tom is a great coach / teacher !

I wanna see the guests hold a big pad and feel a full force kick 😂

He deserves all the success in the world how down to earth Good luck

Two legends

Another great watch 💪💪

class fighter and class personality

Tom will train champions long after his retirement from the sport I can tell this video is an example to how good his coaching ability is kudos to Niles as well he asked a lot of good questions overall another W vid from the REAL champ

I love the fact you shared you have to build up to getting punched, but yet you never get use to it. Most people don't understand that. No different than taking a football hit. You just don't start at the NFL, you work your way to the NFL or Tier 1 Rugby for that matter.

80% power and Tom's facial expression doesn't change and says "not bad" 😂 imagine if someone done that in a fight against you.

Nile did you not watch that 9 year old hurt Eddie with the leg kick 😂 love the content Tom keep up the good work!!

brilliant gymnast meets brilliant mix martial artist

Great crossover. The musketeers are 3 great KZfaqrs and always worth checking out.

Actually really good training advice

"Ever kicked a football?" "oh yeah, yeah" "Totally different mate".. Loe him.. :-D

great stuff, quick tip when shooting pad work use the muffy mic on top of the camera, that with subtitles works great. Love

Respect mate still can't get how quick you are my man . Gent outside ring Animal on fight time

I love that you can spot the bruising under the shorts before Tom gives his final kick to the poor fella 😂😂

Love nile Luke and ash so I’m glad this video was suggested by KZfaq

Tom is looking in fighting shape 🙏manchester in summer turns out 👊👊

That was wicked 🎉

15:21 that must’ve been the most demoralizing “Ay that’s not bad” of all time

Thanks for the big subtitles I am partially deaf I can only hear 5% so being able to see what they say is amazing.

Brilliant !👍

I used to go an MMA gym when I was in my earlier 20s for about 6 months and I didn't learn much technique and I was pretty unathletic at the time which didn't help (terrible mobility etc). They used to start every class with hard sparring which looking back was silly throwing me into the lions like that but I had heart and most people weren't total douches and sparred playfully but I did take my far share of beatings and in fairness learnt how to defend a bit out of necessity. I used to dread sparring the coach though because he used to light me up every time. I don't know if it was because he saw my heart as cockiness and felt like he needed to humble me. I was just a young guy eager to learn/impress. Anyway - one day I came in for a session and we did more hard sparring at the end of the class after a few drills. I got lit up by everyone and then sparred the coach last (at this point pretty exhausted). He then proceeded to blast my thigh 100% (baring in mind this guy had trained mauy thai for 20+ year and competed). I collapsed to the floor in absolute the agony. Maybe the worst pain I've ever felt. Almost on the verge of tears. He shouted to me to get up which I just about managed to get back to my feet and he blasted my leg again in the exact same spot. I collapsed again in agony and crawled off the mat on all fours. I woke up the next day and my leg was literally almost black from bruising from the top to bottom. Fair to say that day I was humbled. I'm not sure if he went about it in the right way - in fact I'm sure he didn't - but the moral of the story is leg kicks are no joke. Someone who is experienced has the ability to incapacitate you very quickly. I did end up going back for a few more classes but ended up getting an evening job which meant I had to stop. Looking back that was a bit of a blessing. I don't really regret my experience but my advice would be look for a good gym that is there to look after you and humble you in a friendly way like Tom did in this video.

That's awesome

Brilliant video

lovely this

Ayyy i knew it was an Aspinall video day today

Brilliant man

Awsom fun thanks Tom

Love it mate

His fluidity of movement for his size is impressive

My first kickboxing class I took 3 'soft' leg kicks while drilling techniques with an average bloke. Limped through the rest of the class, could barely walk or sleep for a week without painkillers, and couldn't do any exercise for a month.

The music was like a hot chilli, it over powered what should have been a nice meal

How can you not like a guy like tom most humble fighter in UFC I think deserves the jon Jones fight and is a great role model for young and up and comers of the sport

Tom seems like such a nice, down to earth guy and it's terrifying that he could rip most people's head's off! For the video you might want to lower the background music a little or not bother as your talking/training is enough. Also, don't have your microphone directly under your chin, it gets muffled a fair bit. Keep up the good work 💪

Been away working in a lorry all week and I hate it, but this just made me die I can't stop laughing...😂 brilliant!!! Tom Apspinal, what a gentleman and great roll model u are. Cant wait for u to be champion of the world u deserve it pall!!

Tom is so massive it's bonkers 😅 And, as everyone else has said, an absolute diamond of a lad.

Tom looks like a bear with a very high fighting IQ; great teacher too !
