Pavlovich landed first on Aspinall’s chin. That punch connected clean. Tom is lucky that Sergei doesn’t have one shot knockout power. He is more of a TKO guy. He also let him off the hook. Arlovski did the same. Robelis wouldve knocked him out. His power is greater and his reach is longer. Pavlovich movement is stiff and his striking is very limited. Aspinall has defensive flaws in his striking. It wasn’t like a counter or something. Blaydes also was able to land in that 15 second fight.
I know this may seem like a pointless fantasy fight analysis. But I see Despaigne as the real deal. I just don’t see it in Aspinall. There is something off about him
