Tom Aspinall reacts to Magomed Ankalaev's win over Alex Pereira
UFC interim heavyweight champion Tom Aspinall shared his reaction to Alex Pereira's loss against Magomed Ankalaev at UFC 313. Aspinall and Pereira were rumored to be interested in fighting each other but the bout didn't materialize.
Despite criticism from some fans and pundits regarding the scorecards, Aspinall believed that Ankalaev was the clear winner. He said:
''I'm not a judge, so I'll put that on record, but I think three rounds to two Ankalaev comfortably, comfortable win. Maybe four rounds to one even Ankalaev. I think Pereira maybe took the first. Definitely 48-47 to Ankalaev... He's got it, Ankalaev's got it. Dana White looking not very happy there if I do say so myself. Uncle Dana does not look too happy. Alex Pereira certainly doesn't look too happy."
