Two representatives of the new generation of heavyweights (up to 120,2 kg) and on a collision course for the main event of UFC 321, Tom Aspinall and Ciryl Gane promise a very interesting fight with the belt on the line. However, for Andy Aspinall, father and coach of the champion, the Englishman will triumph in the octagon without facing great difficulties in defeating the Frenchman.

In the latest episode of Countdown for UFC 321, the athlete's coach quickly discussed Gane's fighting style and compared it to his son's skills, concluding that the fight should be comfortably won by Aspinall.
“ Cyryl Gane is a good striker. You know, he’s a kickboxer who lands punches. He finishes fights, but he needs a lot of strikes to finish his opponents. Tom is much more precise. I don’t think Gane’s skill set will cause Tom any problems at all,” he stated.
