It hasn’t been a quick recovery for Tom Aspinall following what transpired in the UFC 321 main event.
Aspinall’s first undisputed heavyweight title defense ended prematurely when Ciryl Gane poked him in both eyes late in the first round of their bout at Etihad Arena in Abu Dhabi this past Saturday. When it was determined Aspinall couldn’t continue, the bout was ruled a no contest at the 4:35 mark of Round 1.
Three days after the bout, Aspinall is still undergoing tests to determine the severity of the injury to both eyes.
