Overview
- UFC 321 ended in a no-contest when Ciryl Gane accidentally poked Tom Aspinall in both eyes late in Round 1.
- Aspinall has disclosed a diagnosis consistent with Brown’s Syndrome and persistent double vision, with operations expected on both eyes by mid-January.
- Joe Rogan said on his podcast that Aspinall “might not ever fight again” if surgery goes poorly, noting the unpredictability of eye procedures.
- Rogan also highlighted the heavyweight division’s thin depth and argued that a prolonged absence for the champion would further weaken the field.
- Aspinall pushed back at online critics, saying he is prioritizing recovery and aims to pursue a rematch with Gane once he is cleared.
