Tom Aspinall and Curtis Blaydes after the fight
It is safe to say that Curtis Blaydes and Tom Aspinall have no bad blood between each other. The two fighters share a very light, and warm moment after an uneventful end to their fight at UFC London. The two fighters catch up and talk it out.
Tom Aspinall and Curtis Blaydes were booked to headline the main event of UFC London. After a successful outing in the previous London card, the UK heavyweight was looking to run things back in front to the crowd that has showed him nothing but love. After a great main card, it was left to Curtis and Aspinall to close the show in spectacular fashion but things did not go according to plan.
The main event of UFC London ended after only 15 seconds. Everyone in the entire arena was shocked to see Aspinall drop to the floor without absorbing a strike and cry in pain. Tommy Aspinall’s knee compromised as he landed after a kick to Blaydes’ thigh. Curtis was in shock to see Aspinall fall down and call the fight off. Despite Blaydes getting the win via TKO, the fighter felt very bad for his rival and paid him a visit after the show.

“A beer makes everything feel better. What a guy, big Curtis and his team popped up to say hello. Freak accidents happen unfortunately, tonight wasn’t my night. Love u all,” wrote Aspinall in his latest Instagram post, sharing a picture of him and Blaydes drinking a pint of beer.
Aspinall left the octagon on a stretcher and was barely able to stand on his feet. The fighter will surely be out for many weeks and several reports suggest that Tommy blew out his MCL during the fight. It is very unfortunate that Aspinall’s unbeaten run in the UFC had to end because of an injury.
Curtis Blaydes was also very disappointed with the outcome of the fight and said that he won’t take credit for the win. The fighter has said he won’t demand a title shot despite having a win over a top contender on paper. Blaydes feels sorry for his opponent and wishes to run things back.
