Despite having lost 21 consecutive fights, Charles Bennett finally snapped his losing streak by securing a submission victory at Island Fights 84.
I’m absolutely thrilled for Bennett! His determination and perseverance are truly commendable; he’s never faltered in believing in himself. Yet, it’s a bit awkward to see his opponent today, as it seems Bennett outshone him.
Tom Apinall’s Stipe Miocic – Joe Biden reference
“Tom Aspinall suggests Stipe Miocic should retire from his match against Jon Jones, as he appears to be too experienced or past his prime.”

Tom Aspinall advocates for Stipe Miocic to step down, similar to how Joe Biden did in the 2024 Presidential election. In regard to the upcoming fight with Jon Jones, Aspinall commented, “He needs a change like Biden, he’s simply too old.” According to Aspinall, there seems to be little interest left in Miocic.
As a long-time fan of mixed martial arts and having watched Stipe Miocic dominate the heavyweight division for years, it was disappointing to see him look so worn out in his last fight. Frankly, it reminded me of my own aging process – the slow decline in physical prowess, the aches and pains that linger longer, the struggle to maintain the same level of intensity. And while I respect Stipe’s dedication and perseverance, I think it’s time for him to step down gracefully and hang up his gloves.
