Hes inactive and been so, so yes, vacate.

The morons are already in too deep.

They're now running away with the new "he got LASIK" excuse and low and behold they don't have any idea how that works either

There is a complex situation going on right now.

UFC 327 has no main event. It is rumored that Jiri vs Ulberg will fill that spot, but Jiri has said the negotiations aren't finished. I suspect Pereira wants to move to HW and fight for the title, but Aspinall's future is uncertain.

what that means is that the UFC likely wants Pereira to vacate so Jiri vs Ulberg can be for the vacant LHW title, and then Pereira will get his HW title shot. However, if Aspinall can't fight, then that would have to be against Cyril Gane. And I doubt Pereira is going to vacate his LHW title for an interim HW title shot vs Cyril Gane. So the UFC are probably putting massive pressure on Tom to agree to defend against Pereira, or vacate his title.

The solution might be that we see Jiri vs Ulberg for the interim LHW title at UFC 327, although I can't imagine that will make anyone very happy.

If only there was a journalist who could reach out to Tom and that clinic to ask them what was actually done instead of just reposting their Instagram ad

Too bad Ariel doesn't know any

yea everyones allowed to take pictures during an operation, usually how that works

Hmmm... well still I think they should vacate belt and have Pereira fight someone first half of year, then Aspinall fights winner. That is way too long. People were giving Jones for taking that time off end of his career just recently.

As long as ciryl gane doesn't get the title shot

I mean they let Jon Jones hang onto the belt while being inactive and not even injured, so why not Aspinall?

Because the other is one of the MMA GOATs and a huge cash cow?

Probably because trying to pretend getting Lasik for the poor vision that you've had for years has nothing to do with an eye poke 4 months ago

Did Gane injure Tom's eyes here 4 years ago before they even fought and Tom was wearing glasses because he had vision problems then too?



You should be happy he's not actually injured and just got Lasik to correct the vision problems he's had for years and not from an eye poke 4 months ago.

That means he can fight soon right

Right

Yeah lets hope he fights soon for the sake of the division although I don't have personal investment in his career. Keep exposing his elaborate schemes though. I can't wait to hear about how deep this rabbit hole goes.

I mean, what to expect from people who think laser correction procedures require scalpel

What would you accept as evidence of his injury?

Fuck Gane
And Fuck Dana for not doing anything about these damn eye gougers besides “having a meeting”

Whole saga has been a good example of how people can manipulate any information to fit whatever view they hold.

I watched BKFC this weekend for the first time and one guy literally held his hand out at arms length fingers fully extended the entire fight. part of this is on the fighters and refs. you can't fishhook and nut punch a guy either.
