punch record, Tom Aspinall, Francis Ngannou

Tom Aspinall fails trying to break Francis Ngannou punch record – VIDEO

UFC interim heavyweight champion Tom Aspinall aimed to try and break the punch record of former UFC heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou, but fell ridiculously short in the attempt.

Back in 2017, Ngannou recorded the world record of 129,161 units inside the UFC Performance Institute. Aspinall only got to 44,946 when he tried.

“No, he can’t have gotten 129,000,” Aspinall said on YouTube. “If he did 129,000 and I did 40,000 that is ridiculous stuff. I think there’s something going on there. I might quit. I’m thinking about quitting. It must be different, it must be. I don’t punch as hard as Francis Ngannou, I’m aware of that. But I’m not 100,000 behind him, you know what I mean? Definitely not. He doesn’t punch three times harder than me. He definitely punches harder than me. But three times harder? I’m blaming the machine.”
