Tom Aspinall Is Fighting Ciryl Gane!? Plus, I Know Islam Makhachev’s Next Fight

On today’s episode, I break the news that Tom Aspinall will face Ciryl Gane — not Jon Jones — for the for the interim heavyweight title (again). Then, a trusted source tells me that Justin Gaethje will get the next shot at Islam Makhachev, not Ilia Topuria. And, Dricus Du Plessis broke his silence on Twitter, telling the public that he has a fight announcement coming soon.

Next, how is Nassourdine Imavov ranked No. 1 in the middleweight division ahead of Khamzat Chimaev?  And apparently Topuria is getting a title shot during International Fight Week, but it's unclear who he'll fight. Plus, Conor McGregor says he’ll only return for a stadium-sized event, but I don’t believe him. And finally, Sean Brady ripped Ian Machado Garry, saying he’s most famous for losing a fight — and I’m here for the Brady trash talk.
