Aspinall Posts Full-Contact Sparring Tape Ahead of UFC 321 as Fans Question His Head Position

The heavyweight champion says he releases only the training clips he wants viewers to see.

Overview

  • Tom Aspinall is set to defend the undisputed UFC heavyweight title against Ciryl Gane on October 25 at Etihad Arena in Abu Dhabi.
  • The new video shows full-contact rounds with Martin Buday, Ante Delija, and Modestas Bukauskas, with coach Andy Aspinall outlining a five-round structure and offering a terse post-spar verdict.
  • Viewers flagged chin-high entries in exchanges while others called the clip promotional bait, and Aspinall said any visible mistakes were shown by choice.
  • The session was filmed at the Wigan Warriors training facility, and there are no reports of injury as preparations continue.
  • In separate media, Aspinall said a prime Daniel Cormier would be a stylistic nightmare and someone he would definitely lose to.
