BIOGRAPHY
Tom Aspinall is a heavyweight mixed martial arts fighter currently competing in the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC). He is known for his unique combination of grappling and boxing skills. Born in Nottingham, England on November 28th, 1991, Aspinall started training martial arts at a young age. He began with jiu-jitsu when he was just 9 years old and later added Muay Thai and boxing to his training arsenal. After completing secondary school, Tom decided to focus full-time on his MMA career.
Aspinall made his professional debut in 2016 at BAMMA 24: Kone vs Phillips in Manchester where he defeated Ryan Leather via submission due to strikes. From there, Tom went undefeated through seven more BAMMA fights before signing with the UFC after a successful 2019 campaign that saw him win four straight fights via knockout or submission – including two first-round knockouts over Danny Mitchell and Tim Barnett at Cage Warriors 102 and 103 respectively.
Since joining the UFC roster, Aspinall has gone 2-0 with impressive victories over Alan Baudot at UFC Fight Night 180 and Jake Collier at UFC Fight Night 186 – both by way of first round submissions due to strikes earning him “Performance of the Night” bonuses each time out. On top of this success inside the octagon, Aspinall also runs alongside Marc Diakiese as co-owner of Next Generation MMA & Fitness gym located in Manchester which opened its doors back in 2017 providing quality coaching for individuals interested in pursuing their own martial arts dreams no matter their experience level or background.
At just 29 years old Tom Aspinall has hit the ground running since making his professional MMA debut five years ago – building an impressive 8 fight unbeaten streak from 2016 – 2019 leading up to getting signed by one of world’s most prestigious organizations while becoming a respected gym owner helping others grow within their own chosen disciplines along side it all; setting himself up as one powerhouse talent capable of reaching great heights moving forward throughout 2021 & beyond!
