It seems everyone in the MMAsphere had a complete meltdown after the disappointing outcome of the Ultimate Fighting Championship heavyweight title fight between Tom Aspinall and Ciryl Gane at UFC 321 on Oct. 25. It’s understandable. The division feels like it has been on hold for years, with only a single title fight being held in the weight class every year since 2019.
