Interim UFC heavyweight champion Tom Aspinall called Russians positive people.
During his career, Aspinall has fought two Russian fighters in the UFC. The British fighter won by submission against Alexander Volkov in 2022, and also knocked out Sergei Pavlovich last year.
“I think Russians are respectful, positive and incredibly sincere people who are a pleasure to deal with. As I said, I’m just expressing my opinion from personal experience,” the Briton said on the Red Corner MMA YouTube channel.
Aspinall will fight American Curtis Blaydes on July 27 at the UFC tournament in Manchester.
UFC tournaments are broadcast live on Match TV and Match! Fighter TV channels.
