Nina-Marie Daniele is one of the most sought-after MMA content creators. She’s also competed before, but now, she spends her time creating videos and interviewing professionals. Nina Drama is usually seen doing great little videos with the middleweight champion, Sean Strickland. But what happened when she last spoke to the heavyweight Tom Aspinall?

Things took a weird turn when the two were conversing in an interview. Aspinall ended up asking Daniele a question that may have been perceived as uncomfortable by many. While Daniele just laughed it off during the interview, many fans would go on to question Aspinall’s integrity. Now, the fighter has an answer and context to add to it.

Tom Aspinall opens up about the interview

Daniele was interviewing Aspinall in her usual fashion. She would go on to ask him about his fight and then, Aspinall countered with a rather strange question. He asked the interviewer whether she had been “f*ngered” by an MMA fighter before.

The moment caught many, including Daniele, off guard. However, she managed to catch the joke that many may have missed. The reason? She had context and understanding that Aspinall was merely pulling her leg. Now, in a recent conversation, the heavyweight came clean about it all.

“Well that’s all we spoke about off-camera,” said Aspinall. “Is she gets all these kinds of mad questions and then she asked me do I wanna ask her anything. . . she asked me twenty minutes into it, am I participating in No Nut November? It’s not what we were talking about.”

So it’s clear now. An off-camera conversation and the usual drama is what brought Aspinall to this weird moment. Many fans have attempted to cancel him while Daniele herself has come forward to defend the fighter. So what did she have to say about the entire ordeal?

Does Daniele give into the drama?

After the heavy backlash, Daniele herself had to step in to defend Aspinall. She mentioned how she too had asked him crazy questions earlier. In fact, the two were having quite a bit of a laugh thanks to the incident. “@AspinallMMA is funny AF and he didn’t offend me AT ALL! He was trying to get a reaction out of me and he got a good one lol. I asked him some crazy ass questions too!” With Aspinall’s latest clarification, it all checks out just fine.
