Gane Eager for First Defense as Aspinall Vacates Heavyweight Title

Tom Aspinall has officially vacated the UFC heavyweight championship due to persistent eye injuries, allowing interim champion Ciryl Gane to become the undisputed titleholder. Aspinall, who has not fought since a no-contest in October 2025, stated he is stepping aside to allow other fighters to compete while he continues his recovery. Gane, who defeated Alex Pereira for the interim belt in June, expressed eagerness to defend the title, with Josh Hokit already calling for a bout.
