Tom Aspinall’s first official defense as undisputed heavyweight champion is set!
On Thursday, Dana White delivered a slew of blockbuster announcements, including three massive fights for UFC 320 on October 4. However, perhaps the biggest piece of news was the announcement that Aspinall would put his heavyweight crown on the line just a few short weeks later at UFC 321 on October 25 in Abu Dhabi.
According to White, Aspinall will face the division’s top-ranked contender and former interim titleholder Ciryl Gane.
It will be Aspinall’s first time fighting since defending his interim belt against Curtis Blaydes in July 2024.
