“I wanted to do something different for this camp, I realized that I spend a lot of time on social media, I don't like how much time I spend on it. In the time between training now for the full camp, I want to be resting. I feel like social media takes up a lot of my time. What I did: with the people I speak to regularly on WhatsApp I sent an audio saying: 'I'm going to stay off social media for this camp, I have someone else posting for me, I don't want anyone to say anything about the fight, make comments, I don’t want to know any of that,” Aspinall said.

On July 27th, at UFC 304, Tom aspinall will be one of the protagonists of UFC 304, which takes place in Manchester, England. The local idol will put his interim heavyweight belt on the line against the North American Curtis blaydes, in the co-main fight of the show.
