Other than Jon Jones who can Aspinall fight that would sell out an arena?

[Alpha_T83]

Aspinall Gane would need a powerful fucking card to sell but agreed its his biggest test that may POSSIBLY move the needle. I don’t see it selling out without 3 other great fights tbh

I agree with you that *right now* Aspinall can't headline a card by himself. I would add on Pantoja defending his 125 pound belt, because that division also has troubles headlining a card by itself.

Obviously nobody, the UFC needs to actually book a fight to sell tickets. We in the no more stars era baby, masterful suppression of Aspinalls value, you gotta give credit to the UFC where it's due. love the apex or leave it casuals

The obvious answer is Francis

Francis and that's it. HW is really bad and Jones holding the belt hostage has made it even worse for matchmaking.

Suppression of his value???!!! He never headlined. What value Sir and what fight within the UFC would actually sell?

Jones is the only fucking thing the casuals care about at HW and his name being mentioned as champ draws far more attention to the organization and it isn’t close

After he gets a few more quick KO wins in a row, he will sell out all his fights vs. anyone.

Francis Ngannou. But people should not count out Sergei Pavlovich in the HW. mix. I think he is the most dangerous lurking title contender at the moment. He is as fast as Tom for a H.W. But I would always want Tom to win of any of these, because he is just such a great and decent person. He's not full of himself.

He decided to not fight for a year waiting on JJ . He's not a big name. Vein hw he would get to bulling as main event UT being hw is only reason

Hey, could you post the other opponents he was offered? You know, since you're claiming it was Aspinall waiting on Jones. They must have offered other opponents, you should let us know specifically who Aspinall turned down!

 

[mkess101]

Name a single fight he could headline that anyone outside the hardcores would give a fuck. You’ll type anything but that

I just attended an event where the main event was a non title fight between Sandhagen and Figgy. It sold out a 16k arena.

But yeah Aspinall/Gane wouldn't sell out in England, sure.

Probably Ngannou, if he can lure him back to the UFC.

Nobody cares about the heavyweights anymore. Sorry
