Recently, Tom Aspinall participated in an interview with Nina-Marie Daniele. During the course of the conversation, the interim heavyweight champion surprised the well-known influencer by asking a perplexing question.
Marie-Daniele shot to prominence after being selected as the ‘Playmate of the Month’ by Playboy Magazine in April 2017. She quickly shifted into a role as an ambassador for the UFC after receiving this honor. Her ability got the attention of UFC president Dana White, and she quickly became a familiar presence at the organization’s events. She is better known by her ring name, “Nina Drama.”
Nina Marie-Daniele is well-known for her one-of-a-kind style of awkward interviews, in which she asks MMA fighters fearlessly amusing and outrageous questions; nevertheless, she was unprepared for the question that Tom Aspinall had for her that contains material that is not suitable for children.
Aspinall abruptly jumped in to stop her when they were having a certain portion of their talk, and he informed her that he had a question for her. He questioned:
“Have you ever been fi**ered by an MMA fighter before?”
The question left Marie-Daniele completely bewildered, and at first she had a hard time understanding what it was trying to say. Aspinall proceeded after she gave a response that was in the negative and said:
What are the prerequisites?”… I’ve seen some really strange questions on your Instagram, so I’m just going to throw one in there.”
Michael Bisping on a potential Jon Jones vs. Tom Aspinall matchup
Michael Bisping has lately expressed his opinion regarding a possible heavyweight bout between Jon Jones and Tom Aspinall. ‘The Count’ is confident that his fellow countryman has what it takes to win the heavyweight championship by knocking out ‘Bones’ and unifying the titles.
Aspinall is fresh off an unbelievable knockout victory against Sergei Pavlovich in the first round at UFC 295, which took place over the weekend. With the victory, the 30-year-old Englishman claimed the interim heavyweight title. His next match, which would be for the unification of titles, will most likely be against the victor of the fight between Jon Jones and Stipe Miocic.

The battle between Jones and Miocic was scheduled to take place at UFC 295, but the reigning heavyweight champion was forced to withdraw out after suffering a pectoral tendon tear during training. Miocic was able to move forward with the bout. It is anticipated that he will return within the next six to eight months. As was stated, it is anticipated that Jones will compete against Miocic upon his comeback.
In a recent episode of the Believe You Me podcast, Michael Bisping cautioned Jon Jones against retiring following his fight with Stipe Miocic and asked the MMA legend to remain in the sport for the opportunity to fight for a title that unifies all of the divisions. In his words:
“I think we all know what everyone is going to say if [Jon] Jones doesn’t fight Tom Aspinall and he retires. If he doesn’t fight Tom Aspinall. It goes without saying that I won’t… Bringing Tom to his knees? I can’t say for sure… I believe Tom is capable of getting back on his feet, but once he’s there, I believe Tom will lose his head.
