Tom Aspinall vs Ciryl Gane main event of UFC 321 in Abu Dhabi

Tom Aspinall and Ciryl Gane will face each other in the main event of UFC 321. The duel for the heavyweight belt will take place on October 25 in Abu Dhabi.

Tom Aspinall and Ciryl Gane will face off in the UFC octagon in the most important fight of the evening at UFC 321. Dana White has decided that the only legitimate option is to match the new heavyweight champion against a contender who is ranked #1.

Tom Aspinall was promoted to full champion after Jon Jones ended his professional career. The Englishman announced that he would accept a clash with any possible opponent and wants to fight as often as possible. Admittedly, Tom will not enter the octagon in August and September, but at the end of October, so fans should not expect him to fight another fight in November or December.

Ciryl Gane is clearly not among the fighters who eagerly report to the octagon of the best MMA league in the world. The Frenchman last fought in December 2024, and before that also had a long break since September 2023. Bon Gamin tries to combine his sports career with appearances in TV series and movies, which unfortunately evidently limits the “time windows” for potential UFC starts.

The Tom Aspinall vs Ciryl Gane fight will take place on October 25 at UFC 321 in Abu Dhabi. The duel is contracted for five rounds and will be for the heavyweight championship belt. The Englishman is the favorite of the juxtaposition.
