“He (Aspinall) faced one of the best in the world today. He made it look easy, he'll be in the top 5 next week. Now, he enters the discussion to face anyone. He couldn’t have proved himself in a better way”, guaranteed White.

This weekend, Aspinall took to the Octagon and, in front of a supportive crowd, delivered what many expected. Facing the experienced Volkov, the Englishman had no difficulties and extended his undefeated streak in the organization.

With the triumph, Tom reached the mark of five victories in the organization. The positive result, as Dana stated, should place the athlete among the elite of the category led by Francis Ngannou.

Overpowered in the main fight, Alexander disappointed. With no chance given his promise, the Russian could lose sixth place in the group.
