UFC star says he 'completed PornHub' while recovering from knee injury

UFC star Tom Aspinall has joked that he 'completed PornHub' during his long injury lay-off.

The heavyweight contender has been sidelined since July of 2022, recovering from a devastating ACL tear he sustained during a fight.

Riding an impressive win streak, it seemed only a matter of time until Aspinall was going to be challenging for the title.

But in a cruel turn of events, suffered a nasty knee injury against Curtis Blaydes which would put him out of action for almost a year.

With plenty of time on his hands during his rehabilitation, the Brit joked that he killed the boredom by finding a slightly different hobby.

During an appearance on The MMA Hour, Aspinall said: "Last time we spoke in an interview like this I think… it was pretty close after the injury. Close to surgery.

"I was basically sat down, I was on like PornHub everyday, I got to the point where I completed it.

"I think I might be the only person to ever complete PornHub."

Aspinall looks set to make his comeback sometime this year as he enters the final stages of his recovery.

"I'm much happier now everything is good," he added.

"We're moving in a good direction I feel amazing mentally and physically. Ready to go."

Following some back-and-forth trash-talk on social media, there are talks Aspinall could take on Marcin Tybura in his return to the octagon.
