No, Tom Aspinall is not related to Frank Mir. The rumors arose when Brendan Schaub made the compliment that Tom Aspinall and his way of fighting resembled a hybrid Frank Mir on one of the episodes of his show on YouTube

Schaub said:

“Nobody dominated Volkov in every aspect of mixed martial arts like Tom Aspinall. For Tom Aspinall, he says I’ve dreamt of this since I was a kid, but you hadn’t beaten anybody in the top 15. Now you get the number six guy in the world who’s impossible to finish, and you mollywhop him. Hand speed, taking him down at will, you get him down, and you choke him out with a straight armbar. He looks like Frank Mir part Part 2. He looks like a hybrid Frank Mir”.

Tom Aspinall has a professional MMA record of 14 wins and three losses as of July 2024.
