Im looking forward to the rematch aswell , shame having to wait tho seing as its been well over a year waiting since his last fight 

As for his eyes looking fine im not a doctor I cant say whether eyes need to have blood from them or bloody veins to affect vision.  But the obvious truth is he had fingers in both eyes at the same time . And all it would need was for both eyes to be blurry and the fight is over . You cant expect him to fight on with bad visibility in both eyes in a championship fight that would be incredibly stupid and dangerous . I know its a dangerous sport but if u cant see properly then it could end up costing him more than a belt 

It sucks , its a anti climax for sure . But id rather see then do it again with both fighters fighting their top game ro decide the fight . If aspinall carried on having hardly been able to see it would have been a even bigger shame

All the shit in the hospital the noises the dr laughing just about the opening both eyes and there no bruising bleeding etc

Im sure youll agree its a sad state of affairs these days that "content" is a massive part of fighting sports 

He will have a camera crew with him everywhere all the time for his youtube channell and other bits . It was probably put out because stuff like that is expected of him and after all the stuff that was thrown at him afterwards wanting to get his side out 

I have watched the video on his channell and his dad did seen genuinly worried about his son . The noises i would put down to him being in actual pain from the eye pokes . Dont see there being any shame in making noises if it genuinely hurts . The doctor was a bit uncomfortable with the whole situation,  weirdly it seemed he was at a normal hospital with rehular people there , the female nurse last at the start didnt even know he was a MMA fighter . I wpuld have thought UFC would have a private hospital om standby where all the fighters go after the show to get fixed up . 

I dont know about the bruising and bleeding you keep expecting , the fingers did go deep into his eyes you can see it on camera . If they didnt bleeding or bruise then it is what it is.  Maybe their bruised to f**k today who knows 

Back to the "content" thing with all the cameras being a necessity these days its the way of the world having everything they do videod for the world to see. Its how it all works you have to be marketable to get anything.  Colby Covington wasnt making waves as a fighter and was on the verge of being cut from the roster when he decided to act up and be a wanchor and act a horrible prck to other fighters on camera and his career rocketed from then amd hes made lots of money playing the villain .

Im not sure why people are insistent aspinall should have fought on after having both eyes poked at the same time and not being able to see properly.  Im not sure many people would fancy being driven around by someone who just had both eyes poked so why would aspinall go fight someone who is literally lethal after boyh eyes being poked

I just think he thought let's not.acrry on there's 20 mins left 

He was poked so in his right to do it I suppose but all the acting videoing after and he ain't even got the slightest scratch on this eye has it  done him no favours is all I think 

But again it's a main card people have travelled around the world to watch

If your dog got poked in the eye with a stick ....or a nocked up toe .....would you give it another run....

Of course not.....

with all due respect mate...if he's telling you he can't see....he can't see...what's he supposed to do

Ye mate had me dogs eye poked can't open it from hitting cover and it's carried on 

That's just the problem. Mate for him the one thing you can't say to referee is I can't see and he was saying it straight away he had 5 mins to see if he could see the dr said its ok to continue but he had made his mind up straightaway not a good look for.me

If he cant actually see the surely thats what ges going to tell the referee . Again im only guessing byt I imagine the brightside doctor can only look at the eye quickly to see anything obvious , he doesnt have scanners or anything there ot actually look at it 

Me and you can do this dance all night only one person knows how much aspinall could actually see 

Im going with trusting his word basically because ive watched a lot of his videos online training , talking etc and he comes across a seriously decent mature guy , very likable.  Thats all ive got to go on with trusting his word

The eye dr said there's no damage mate ? 

Not even a scratch or bruising ?

I dont know if damage equates to having blurry vision tho 

One finger went right into hia eye socket and the other partially in and dragged down 

 

[Welsh_red 5,069]

Now I know this picture is tounge in cheek and im not putting it on here to try and get a raise from u mchull 

But if his eyesight was anything like that after the eye poke then do you think he should have carried on

We're all dead tough sitting on a couch watching telly. It's easy to say "quitter", "no balls", not a true "warrior."

Personally, if I thought my long term health was in doubt, or I couldn't carry on, for whatever reason, then I wouldn't care  what people thought. Im out of there. It's  a sport.  Nothing else.

At the end of the day, you want to get home in one piece. That way you live to fight another day.
