Tom Aspinall is the first British UFC Heavyweight Champion of the World. With 15 wins, including 11 by knockout, he’s built a reputation as one of the most devastating finishers in the sport.

I'm a huge UFC fan, so sitting down with Tom was a dream come true. From training as a kid in his Dad's MMA gym to becoming one of the biggest names in the UFC, his story is nothing short of incredible.

In this conversation, Tom shares:

What it was like stepping into the cage for his first fight
The scariest moments of his career so far
His thoughts on the drama between Eddie Hearn and Dana White
What he's learnt as a father to a child with autism
Why being a dad is the most important role in his life

Tom was a reminder that some of life’s biggest wins come from finding the courage to face the things that scare you the most.

Tom Aspinall is Great Company.
