Tom Aspinall vs Cyril Gane for HW Title ONLY Fight To Make

[Wreckless]

You know the HW division sucks when Volkov, a guy who has double digit losses is the top contender.

Aspinal is going to run through these bums.

So is Gane good again? I’m sure it’ll be a big win for Tom , but wasn’t considered a big win for Jones ….seems right

 

[humdizzle]

gane winning would be terrible

but at the same time ufc will get alot of french fans. i dont understand it but gane seems to be very popular. netflix movie and all that

 

[mkt]

Really? I've been reading how Gane is a joke of a fighter with UFC 1 level grappling....cause Jones finished him in Round 1.

If it weren't for double standards, Sherdog would have no standards at all.

 

[CieloLuce]

Nah the bigger money fight is Ngannou vs Aspinall.

Gane doesn't move the needle and he is too busy being a movie star.

 

[Deltron 6060]

Gane coming off a gift of a decision getting a title shot, shows how shallow HW is.

Alex recently posted himself at 243lbs..

I'm not thrilled with Gane getting a third title shot so soon, especially right now, but it's probably one of the only options. I might prefer Almeida and Volkov had he gotten the official win, but really NOBODY is a clear cut and ideal pick in my opinion.

That’s the official biggest fight which can be made then

Unless he’s pushing for a fight with Jones or something

Aspinall vs. Gane, before Francis makes a shocking return to face the winner and bring sexy back to the HW division.

 

[JoeRowe]

Tom vs almedia in brazil or something is an option. he had his last one on his home turf, Brazil hasn't had a PPV in a while, not sure if tom has fought there. a chance to show him to the world.

I would prefer this but the end of the year ppv schedule is set. Vegas, Abu-Dhabi, MSG, & Vegas.

I'm hoping Tom/Jailton & Gane/Volkov III get booked for Vegas on OCT 4th. This division needs to get moving ASAP.

 

[Dorkman]

Unless they can get Francis back which seems ultra unlikely for multiple reasons, then yeah Gane vs Aspinal is the next biggest fight they can make. This is where i'm feeling bad for Volkov again knowing it's that tainted win moving Gane into this position.

 

[KO Shotz]

That's why they dumped Kuniev into the deep end with Blaydes. Hopefully throwing Teixeira in with Lewis works out better.

Smell the desperation!

With a win over the black beast, Teixeira would be in the title mix for sure.

 

[FreedomCricket]

No thanks. Gane is trash.

Sign some dudes off the street. Give them a shot.

 

[mangokush]

Tom vs Jailton

Gane vs Blaydes

 

[Mmmmmmma1234]

Almeda is the legit contender but I do see the UFC favorism putting game back into the title next.

 

[Alpha_T83]

I agree that Tom vs Gane is the fight to make. Although, if Gane refuses or is injured, the Volkov rematch is a close 2nd.

They could also do Aspinall vs Almeida, although it would be good to build Almeida up a bit more if possible.

if Gane somehow wins it's going to be such a fucking shit show and Jones will be doing media tours saying I told you so.

For real.

MMA Guru just said that in his video basking in the glory of Jones retiring.

He paused for a moment and said "if we went through all this for Aspinall to lose to Gane, I will cry live on stream". Was pretty funny, although true.
