Tom Aspinall has gotten in some work with the cream of the crop in kickboxing and those in the heavyweight champ’s camp are not concerned by the stand up portion of this Ciryl Gane fight. Aspinall will defend his UFC heavyweight title against former interim titleholder Gane at UFC 321 on Saturday, October 25th.
Generational talent and prolific heavyweight kickboxing champ Rico Verhoeven has historically gotten in work with Aspinall and the former has highly praised the latter’s striking capabilities. Father and coach Andy Aspinall was speaking about the machinations of this Aspinall-Gane matchup during a recent UFC countdown effort for this pay-per-view.
