Tom Aspinall went a little bit too far with his recent interview with Nina Drama.
Over the weekend, Aspinall became the interim UFC heavyweight champion and believes Jon Jones should be stripped of the full title.

“It’s hard to say without sounding rude, but who’s asked about Jon Jones and Stipe anymore? Why do we get this legacy fight, and they get to live by their own rules? What’s a legacy fight, a retirement fight for a title? I want to fight Stipe and then I want to fight Jon Jones. … I think all this other stuff is rubbish. Stop protecting him now. Stop protecting your boy Jon Jones at the top. If he’s injured, get out of the way and I’ll fight Stipe.”
Before his big win, Aspinall sat down with influencer Nina Drama, who is known for her comedic, awkward interviews.
The interview went a bit sideways when Aspinall grabbed the mic and began shooting his shot with Nina by asking her a wildly inappropriate question.
This was the craziest question any UFC fighter has ever asked me LOL.

Nina herself is known for asking inappropriate questions. Earlier in the interview, she asked Aspinall if he was participating in “No Nut November.”

It’s unclear if Aspinall was joking or if the whole thing was a bit but it was definitely extremely awkward.
